AMSTERDAM : The city council of Eindhoven, Netherlands, on Tuesday voted in favor of an initial agreement with computer chip equipment maker ASML to start planning a major expansion in the city's north.
ASML, Europe's largest technology company, needs additional space to grow along with the semiconductor industry, which is expected to double in the coming decade. Opponents of the city's agreement, including representatives of the Socialist Party, said they had not been given enough time to consider the consequences of the expansion, and that residents should have a chance to vote on it in a referendum.
Alderman Stijn Steenbakkers, one of the architects of the city plan, said retaining ASML was of importance for the Netherlands and Europe and it would change Eindhoven.
