New law removes local control in siting solar, wind farms – Jacksonville Journal-Courier

State Sen. Jil Tracy said,  "It goes against local control over issues that local people have more knowledge about. It's a statewide mandate that skips over who should be making the decisions. It doesn't affect Cook County, just downstate and I find that suspect as well. The governor flipped his position on local control. He has the power of the amendatory veto, and he didn't use it."
