Local votes and rules
⚖️ Court case
Residents sued to undo the village's May 2024 rezoning for data centers. They say council did not have enough votes to pass it as an emergency. In July 2026 a judge removed nine late-added plaintiffs and set a hearing on whether the rest can sue.
⚖️ Court case
Amazon's development company K-Nova asked the Ohio Supreme Court to order the village to vote on its 'Project Cosmos' data center plan. It says the village cannot apply its new 18-month pause (moratorium) to a plan filed before the pause.
