New Brunswick AI Data Center City Council Meeting

A redevelopment plan moving toward final approval in New Brunswick would allow the construction of a 27,000 sq. ft. data center alongside warehouse development at the Jersey-Sandford site.

What was once proposed as mixed community use, including office space and public-facing amenities like parks, has quietly shifted toward high-intensity AI tech infrastructure. This includes a potential data center project that would consume significant electricity and water resources while creating minimal permanent jobs.

Residents deserve transparency about what is being built in their city, how it impacts housing affordability, energy demand, and environmental conditions, and whether local infrastructure can support it. Join us to deliver public comment and demand accountability before the final council vote.
