NorthPoint offers $10,000 to 4,500 households for a Pennsylvania data center project; residents reject it
NorthPoint Development is offering $10,000 to each eligible household, about 4,500 in total and $45 million, if its Hazelnut data center project moves forward in Hazle Township, Pennsylvania, on roughly 520 hectares. The company outlines a $165 million package, including $15 million for community funds and $105 million to the township over 15 years. The township rejected the project in November 2025 and a judge did not uphold a subsidiary's appeal. Some residents called the payment a bribe.
