A proposed land exchange in Limerick Township aims to facilitate industrial development along the Schuylkill River, but has faced significant opposition from local residents. The proposal involves a trade where Limerick Town Center LLC would acquire a 55-acre property in Limerick, adjacent to its existing industrial tract, in exchange for 559 acres across three counties, including Delaware County's first state game lands.

Residents fear the deal could lead to the establishment of a data center, despite no such proposal being officially presented. Local officials have expressed their opposition, but have limited power as the Commonwealth owns the land. The Pennsylvania Game Commission is set to vote on the proposal soon.
