Warren Township Debates Short-Term Rental Regulations
The committee engaged in a discussion regarding short-term rentals, prompted by the influx of visitors for the World Cup. Currently, there are no restrictions on short-term rentals like Airbnb in Warren Township. The committee is considering implementing restrictions, such as duration requirements, to manage their use. While the state has issued its own guidelines, which may preempt local regulations, the conversation was initiated to explore potential local actions. The committee plans to revisit this topic for further discussion.
Warren Township Prohibits Data Centers Amidst Regional Trend
The Township Committee adopted Ordinance 26-19, which defines and prohibits data centers in all zones within Warren Township.

Several other municipalities in the region have followed Warren's lead in addressing this issue. Concerns were raised regarding the specific wording of the ordinance and its potential for legal challenges, but the committee agreed that the intention is to ban data centers and will consider revisiting the language for enhanced protection.
