• Girard City Council considers data center permit pause, reimbursement for damaged fire equipment (wfmj.com) — Girard City Council is weighing three proposals that could affect local taxes, housing, and future development, including billing insurance to replace damaged fire equipment instead of charging residents. Members are also considering a one-year pause on new data center permits and extending limits on converting “old mill homes” into duplexes to encourage more long-term homeowners in the city.
