New Carlisle

New York-based New Carlisle 25 LLC has refused to disclose the name of the company it would build the data center for. The St. Joseph County Council has granted their request to postpone their vote on a rezoning the project needs from Wednesday's meeting to the council's Dec. 9 meeting.

The New Carlisle Town Council voted 4-0 Tuesday for a resolution opposing a developer's request to rezone over 1,000 acres of farmland near New Carlisle for a data center. A St. Joseph County Council committee will vote on the rezoning Tuesday before the full council votes Nov. 11.

After receiving the St. Joseph County Area Plan Commission's unfavorable recommendation Tuesday, the rezoning request needed for a data center near New Carlisle goes to the county council for a final vote Sept. 23.

The St. Joseph County Area Plan staff has given no recommendation, meaning neither favorable nor unfavorable, to a request to rezone over 1,000 acres along scenic Chicago Trail from agricultural to industrial.

The developer wants to rezone 1,057 acres along scenic Chicago Trail, designated as green space or agriculture in county and town plans, to build a data center. New Carlisle town officials say they'll already have their hands full with the massive data center that Amazon is building nearby.

Suburban and rural fire territories say it's increasingly difficult on their own to provide fire and ambulance services that people have come to expect.

New Carlisle is getting some upgrades after being named the home of a new Amazon Data Center.

The next step in the secretive project is for the St. Joseph County Council to sign off on rezoning the land.
