Rezin Measure Would Allow Cities a Voice in Placement of Some Rural Illinois Solar Farms – Starved Rock Media

Municipalities would be given back their voice in the placement of solar farms under a new measure sponsored by State Senator Sue Rezin. The Morris Republican has introduced a bill allowing cities, towns and villages to weigh in on the placement of solar-energy facilities in unincorporated areas that are within three miles of town. Rezin says she's backing the bill to help fix a mistake she says was made in the fall.
