What happened
The Valley View School District filed a lawsuit in county court against Project Gravity and the town of Archbald regarding data center regulations. The suit argues that the campus should not be exempt from the borough’s data center regulations. The challenge centers on the November 2025 data center zoning amendment, which limits data centers to four overlay districts throughout the town.

Why it matters
The lawsuit claims Project Gravity’s plans do not meet the criteria for previous zoning in Archbald, which allowed data centers in commercially zoned land without public hearings or conditional-use approval. Project Gravity’s 186-acre site is not included in any of the required overlay districts.
