Solar farm developers want to come to McHenry County – the question is whether county officials will allow them. At least 10 solar farm proposals have been submitted for approval, and two more are in the application process as the McHenry County Zoning Board of Appeals grapples with the standards it wants to set for such entities. The question about how solar farms should be regulated comes on the heels of a controversial solar farm proposal by West Grant Development, Cypress Creek Renewables LLC and Shabadoo Solar, which want to develop a solar farm on a 90-acre plot of land in McHenry Township. Neighbors largely have been against the proposal.
