Public Comment (Agenda Items)  
Dezeri DeRaedt, Jr., 45W300 Hillview Lane, Hampshire, stated that he was proud of  
Kane County for their role in farmland preservation and forest preserves. He deemed  
Kane County to be one of the smartest counties in the State. However, he opposed the  
proposed construction of a solar field next to Central High School and Howard B.  
Thomas Grade School. He does not understand why a solar field would be placed by  
the schools. Many solar fields have established signage stating "DANGER, High  
Voltage". He asked the Development Committee to vote no to this proposal. If this solar  
field is accepted, the school ratings could be hindered. DeRaedt, Jr., explained that  
most solar fields will last approximately 10 to 15 years then become obsolete, which  
will affect the land beneath them. He believes that solar panels should be located on  
rooftops, on factories, and parking lots, not taking up valuable farmland. He explained  
that he receives mail from solar companies to construct solar fields frequently. To this,  
his answer is a simple "no". Farmland is precious and the United States is blessed to  
have it. If solar is truly needed, find different locations other than behind schools.  
Michelle Schutta, 45W339 Freedom Court, Hampshire, explained that she is a property  
owner in the Burlington Hills Subdivision located directly across the street from the  
schools, as well as a substitute teacher at Howard B. Thomas Grade School for about  
15 year. She voiced her objection to the solar field being placed in the backyard of the  
elementary school. Currently, the children have a limited area of playground that they  
are able to play on. This solar field would hinder them more. She asked the Committee  
if they would prefer their own children/grandchildren to play next to a solar field. If this  
solar field is constructed, it will affect approximately 1800 individuals and three major  
schools. Schutta agreed that solar is the way of the future, but should not be placed  
next to schools. She explained that there has been two established solar fields in Lily  
Lake and Burlington. More solar fields will equal bigger eye sores around the County.  
She stated that solar fields scar the farmland.  
Jeff Kerner, 6N312 Clydesdale Court, St. Charles, explained that he and his wife were  
looking for homes in the Burlington area. Upon seeking real estate, this petition came  
to his attention. He is opposed to his grandchildren attending a school next to a solar  
field. Kerner spoke of the potential effects the solar field would have on the land. He  
questioned the plans to store the excess energy. If a solar energy container is needed,  
lithium-ion would be utilized, which is highly flammable. Kerner asked the Committee  
what will be done to protect the residents and children from the high voltage. He listed  
a number of questions that the County does not have answers to that he is aware of.  
Solar fields come with a high cost. There are multiple areas within the County that a  
solar field could be placed, instead of behind schools. Kerner asked the Committee to  
do their due diligence when researching this matter.  
Annie Halterman, 667 Thompson Avenue, North Aurora, stated she is in full support of  
clean energy. She shared her concerns with the proposed solar field being located  
close to the forest preserve, schools, and residents' homes. If the Committee agrees to  
this solar field, it would set a precedence for other solar fields to be constructed near  
schools and forest preserves. Halterman asked the Committee to find appropriate  
locations for these solar facilities.  
Kevin Conner, 1202 Kaneville Road, Geneva, stated he researched this petition and  
read the logistics of the proposed solar field. He noted that he is a proponent of  
alternative energy. However, the location and the proximity of this solar field to schools,  
residents, and preserved land is not ideal. These solar fields contain high voltage, high  
current, and electromagnetic interference. To have this type of power located next to a  
school and resident's homes is potentially very dangerous.  
Mario Ruffolo, 47W982 Route 38, Maple Park, stated he is a conservative person. That  
being said, he was approached by the solar company, Horizon, to construct a solar  
field on his land earlier this year. He believed this would be a good idea for the County  
as it would create jobs. Ruffolo stated that many need to understand the potential risks  
of climate change. We need to change are dependence on fossil fuels. Ruffolo stated  
that he does not see the negative side to this petition, besides the proposed location.  
This will ultimately help Kane County with renewable energy sources.  
Richard Johnson, 44 Lake Marian Road, Carpentersville, stated he is in support of  
community solar projects. With the growing threat of climate change and ensuing  
natural catastrophes due to the excessive release of carbon emissions, many  
communities around the world are looking to clean energy alternatives to replace  
traditional fossil fuels. Solar energy is a sustainable renewable energy resource that  
has a low environmental impact and promotes energy equity and independence.  
Johnson explained that community solar projects will provide environmentally friendly  
access to low cost energy to the community. He stated that the few Illinois legislative  
acts pertaining to solar energy and the Kane County's 2017 Solar Statement has  
demonstrated leadership in supporting renewable energy production. He commended  
the Kane County Board on their support of sustainable development and renewable  
energies. Johnson voiced his support on Kane County's goals of becoming more solar  
friendly community. He spoke on the common oppositions of solar fields. Many solar  
fields are time-bound and the land can convert to farmland after deconstruction.  
Larry Stachura, 48W580 Route 38, Maple Park, stated he has been uncertain about  
the process of these solar petitions. He explained that he was mailed a letter a few  
weeks ago informing him of a solar farm being constructed at a neighbor's home. He  
noted that the Zoning Board of Appeals approved this project. He questioned if the  
solar field is safe, or if it could be turned off in case of emergency. Stachura explained  
that he inherited a family farm in Maple Park. In 2000, there was a proposed rail port  
that was potentially going to be built across his family farm. Just like this, he opposes  
the use of the solar fields and to protect his parents wishes in keeping Kane County a  
farming community.  
Kane County resident, James Whittington, spoke on his opposition of solar fields. He  
stated that, in Illinois, the amount of sunlight is not ideal year round for solar energy. He  
explained that after speaking with residents that have solar panels on their rooftops, he  
has found that they have not been paid off or efficient. Whittington explained that solar  
energy is stored in lithium batteries. Lithium has to be mined for, which is destroying  
the land and becomes unusable for anything further. Whittington stated that most of  
the lithium mining is done in South Africa and solar panels are constructed in China  
under slave labor. Due to all of this, solar fields/panels are not a good idea. Technology  
has not been properly developed for solar fields and should be put on hold until the  
proper technology is developed.  
Greg Peloquin, Hampshire, stated he is 100% for clean energy, but it does not mean  
solar fields should be placed where ever someone wants one. There is too little  
short/long-term data present to know exactly how a solar farm will impact the land,  
residents, and surrounding ecosystems. Peloquin stated he emailed an information  
packet to the Committee addressing the four major issues to the Cardinal Creek  
ecosystem. Referencing a map, he explained that the solar field will be constructed on  
the Cardinal Creek ecosystem that supports the wildlife within Cardinal Creek Forest  
Preserve. He noted that Cardinal Creek is a part of the Kane County's taxpayer funded  
2040 Open Space Program. The goals of the 2040 Open Space Program is to continue  
the efforts of protecting the environment and restoring the unique and fragile  
environments associated with the geography of Kane County. Additionally, to continue  
enhancing the countries visual identity and community character by preserving natural  
areas, landscapes, scenic vistas, and rustic roads with their historical culture and  
agricultural resources. Peloquin stated that this proposed solar field would have a direct  
effect on the Open Space Program. He spoke on the negative affects on the wildlife, if  
the construction of the solar field is approved. He described the affects on the schools  
and community surrounding the solar field. This solar field would contain approximately  
34,000 solar panels and 1.5M solar cells. Solar fields release electromagnetic radiation  
(EMF). EMF has the biggest affect on children. Peloquin reviewed the National Institute  
of Health CEP report. Within this report, it states, "considering the uncertain effects of  
EMF exposure on children, the World Health Organization (WHO) recommended  
general measures, such as reducing personal EMF exposure, minimizing exposure in  
schools or any location where children spend a substantial part of their day." Peloquin  
stated there is no long-term studies that say there is no risk from EMF exposure. He  
explained that the construction of this solar field should not be done on the highest  
point of Kane County creating an eye sore.  
Lynne Peloquin, Hampshire, spoke on her opposition to the solar field being  
constructed near the schools, residents' homes, and wildlife. She stated she has grave  
concerns of unknown impacts to children, adults, and wildlife with the proposed solar  
facility. She does not believe a solar field should be constructed so close to  
schools/residental areas. She understands the importance of renewable energy, but is  
it also important to choose the correct location for solar fields. Peloquin strongly urged  
the Committee to assess the detailed health concerns provided to the Committee, such  
as the EMF exposure. The Committee needs to prioritize safety and potential health  
concerns. Surrounding neighbors are compassionate about the wellbeing of the  
community and County. Peloquin explained that she is not opposed to solar energy,  
but rather the location of solar facilities.

Building & Zoning Division  
A.  
Building & Zoning Report  
Dev. Dir. VanKerkhoff provided the monthly Building and Zoning Report. The building  
permit activity continues to be very busy with the recovery of storm damage, as well as,  
additions and new single-family construction.  
B.  
Zoning Petitions  
Dev. Dir. VanKerkhoff provided a presentation on the recent amendments to the Kane  
County Zoning Ordinance regarding Wind Energy Conversion Systems and  
Commercial Solar Energy Facilities. He noted that these new regulations of the zoning  
ordinance were adopted in May 2023. He provided a brief background of the zoning  
ordinance. Kane County needed to establish energy standards due to the State Public  
Act 102-1123, which requires counties to amend their zoning ordinance to include  
commercial wind and solar energy provisions within 120 days. If not done, the County  
would not have any siting criteria to govern potential wind or solar projects within their  
jurisdiction. VanKerkhoff reviewed the process of Special Use Permit Applications,  
conditions, and restrictions. VanKerkhoff listed the six factors for granting a Special  
Use permit per the Kane County Zoning Ordinance.  
Petition # 4615 Petitioner: Robert Matson Trust (RPIL Solar 8, LLC)  
1.  
Kane County Resident, Attorney Stuart Peterson, provided a brief personal  
history. He stated that there are a lot of unknowns as to what could happen in  
the next 20 years with solar fields. The biggest question most solar facilities  
need to answer is where should they be placed. Additionally, the  
decommissioning process must be looked at in terms of deconstructing them. If  
there is no money to deconstruct these solar facilities, they will just sit there and  
rot. Peterson urged the Committee to look into the economic impacts and values  
to the County before approving all these solar petitions. He spoke on the  
potential of additional jobs that will be brought to Kane County. However, most  
of these jobs will not be obtained by Kane County residents. The Committee  
must think about when and where these types of developments should be  
placed.  
Dev. Dir. VanKerkhoff re-introduced Petition 4615: Robert Matson Trust (RPIL  
Solar 8, LLC). The petition was held over from last month due to further  
discussion needed. This petition is for a Special Use request in the F-Farming  
District for a solar facility on the south side of Plato Road, west of Burlington  
High School. VanKerkhoff shared numerous photographs and site plans of the  
solar facility. He reviewed the Kane County's Water Resource Department and  
Division of Transportation's stipulations. KDOT staff Nika provided a change to  
KDOT's stipulation. He explained that the proposed stipulations 10 and 12 will  
be replaced with "the proposed Special Use is approved contingent upon  
compliance with the Plat of Survey and Site Plan attached to Petition 4615.  
Deviations from the Site Plan incorporated in Petition 4615 requires approval  
and compliance with Kane County Zoning Ordinance including, but not limited to  
Section 25-4-8-3. Overall, Kane County staff recommends approval of this  
proposed solar facility. VanKerkhoff stated that the Zoning Board of Appeals did  
deny this petition with the recommended stipulations. Additionally, the Zoning  
Board would like the petitioner to formalize an agreement with the Kane County  
Division of Transportation (KDOT) regarding dedication along Ellithorpe Road  
prior to construction of the solar facility. Lastly, VanKerkhoff stated the  
surrounding area property owners have objected to this petition. VanKerkhoff  
reviewed Renewable Properties, LLC's, technical memorandum update. The  
memo provided additional details on the project and outreach updates since the  
September Development Committee meeting.  
Attorney Ben Jacobi, stated he was the attorney representing this proposed  
solar facility. He introduced Lead Developer, Jeremy Price, and CohnReznick,  
LLP, Property Valuation Consultant, Andrew Lines. Lines is present to explain  
his review of literature and market conditions in Illinois. Jacobi introduced the  
property owners of this proposed solar facility, Robert and Linda Matson. He  
stated the Matson's are not absentee landowners. They are fifth generation  
members of the community. Jacobi provided a brief personal background of the  
Matson's.  
Robert Matson provided his personal history of living in Kane County. He spoke  
on his family's choice to place a solar facility on his property. His family is  
ingrained in the community and would like to stay within Kane County if feasible.  
In regards to wildlife, Matson stated there is not much wildlife on his property or  
surrounding areas any more.  
Jacobi spoke on the Zoning Board of Appeals denial of this Petition. The Zoning  
Board did not deliberate and did not make any findings of fact. Jacobi explained  
that the project facts and design are consistent with the State Statute and with  
the County's Zoning Ordinance. Referencing a public speakers comments,  
Jacobi explained that the memo included in the Petition packet addressed the  
concerns many constituents have, especially the health of children. He stated  
that conversations were had with the schools on the benefits they would reap,  
such as gathering taxes on the solar facility. He explained that there is no risk to  
the schools or the children. In fact, the State of Illinois has incentivized these  
projects on and near schools. Jacobi read aloud Zoning Board of Appeals  
Member Lake's comments pertaining to solar panels close to schools. He noted  
that the Kane County Health Department has not provided any comments of  
health concerns due to solar panels. Jacobi spoke on the possible noise that  
could come from the solar facility. The transformer would be the only thing that  
would make noise on a solar field. He spoke on the Health and Safety  
Assessment Report: Toxicity, included in the agenda packet, by Solar Health  
and Safety Expert, Tommy Cleveland. Jacobi referenced a study regarding the  
affects of EMF. He explained that they are concerned about EMF exposure to  
the children. However, solar panels have been found to have no affect of them.  
(Davoust left at 11:58 a.m.) He spoke on the concerns of being within close  
proximity of the forest preserve. As the site plan states, the forest preserve is  
780 feet away from the proposed solar facility.  
Lead Developer Price spoke on the drainage and installation of vegetation  
growth to improve the quality in storm water retention. He explained that "High  
Voltage" signs would be placed around the solar facility in accordance to the  
Kane County Zoning Ordinance. He spoke on the impact to the surrounding  
forest preserve. He stated that 63% of the 83 Kane County forest preserves  
have included high density residential subdivisions or commercial uses. This  
project is consistent with other solar facilities around forest preserves. Jacobi  
and Price addressed questions and comments from the Committee. Much  
discussion ensued. (Tepe left at 12:10 p.m.)  
CohnReznick's Property Valuation Consultant, Andrew Lines, addressed the  
concerns of property values. He explained that he has co-authored studies on  
solar and it's impact on adjacent properties. Additionally, he has reviewed  
academic studies that show no affect on values. He has investigated how the  
market trends have been when developing solar facilities. Lines has conducted  
studies on over 33 solar facilities in the Midwest. Referencing his studies, homes  
are still selling for large amounts that are within close proximity of a solar field.  
He provided additional information on value impacts. Committee Member  
Williams read aloud Kane County Forest Preserve's Executive Director Ben  
Haberthur's letter depicting his views of the multiple complaints that have been  
received with respect to the forest preserve. Further discussion ensued.

Petition # 4617 Petitioner: Dale Hartmann, et ux (ILSolar05, LLC)  
2.  
Dev. Dir. VanKerkhoff presented Petition 4617: Dale Hartmann, et ux  
(ILSolar05, LLC). This petition has requested a Special Use request in the  
F-Farming District for a solar facility in Virgil Township. VanKerkhoff provided  
numerous photographs and site plans for the proposed solar facility. He  
reviewed the Kane County's Water Resources Department and Division of  
Transportation stipulations. Overall, Kane County staff recommends approval of  
the Special Use to allow a solar facility to be constructed on the property.  
VanKerkhoff stated that the Zoning Board of Appeals approved this petition with  
the recommended stipulations as well as two additional ones, such as providing  
additional tree screening and a revision on the proposed fencing. He shared the  
revised site plan for vegetation screening.  
Farm owner Dale Hartman spoke on his desires for this project. He stated that  
the other portion of his land will remain a family farm. This solar facility will help  
with the daily expenses of the farm. He noted that this is a lease and will be able  
to turn his land back into adequate farmland after the solar field is  
decommissioned. Additionally, Hartman stated that with the proposed solar field,  
new pollinators will be established.  
Petitioner Andy Melka stated many discussions have been had with surrounding  
neighbors and the Village of Lily Lake. Most constituents are in agreement to  
construct the solar facility. While working with the Village, it has been decided  
that an informational sign will be placed along the Great Western Trail. He does  
understand that the neighbors do not want to see the solar field. Additional  
vegetation screening will be provided to shield them from view. The screening  
will be evergreen trees with indigenous plantings. Melka explained that solar  
projects are safe. There are no heavy metals, lithium, or battery storage on site.  
This project is isolated. Melka addressed questions and comments from the  
Committee. Discussion ensued.  
Neighbor Megan Miller explained she resides at the northwest property of this  
proposed solar facility. After attending multiple meetings on this proposed solar  
facility, she found a common theme of residents wanting more vegetation  
screening. She explained that neighbors would like to see screening on the  
north, east, and west sides of this solar field. She provided reasoning for  
vegetation screening to farmers. This will protect the solar panels from wind and  
probable damage. Screening would create biodiversity within Lily Lake, increase  
the carbon storage, and decrease soil erosion. Miller would like to add 200 more  
trees to the proposed 100. She spoke on the types of trees neighbors would like  
to see planted. She requested the screening plan be written to hold the  
developers responsible for the additional screening plans. This project could be  
an example of what solar could be in Kane County. Further discussion ensued.  
Committee Co-Chair Williams motioned to amend this Petition to include the  
expansion of additional vegetative screening be placed around the solar facility,  
Kenyon seconded. Motion carried unanimously by roll call vote.  
VanKerkhoff requested a revised site plan from the petitioner to be included in  
the County Board agenda packet.

3.  
Dev. Dir. VanKerkhoff presented Petition 4618: John Hatch, et ux (KaneSolar3,  
LLC). This petition is for a Special Use request in the F-Farming District for a  
solar facility in Sugar Grove. VanKerkhoff provided numerous photographs and  
site plans of the proposed solar facility. He reviewed the Kane County's Water  
Resource Department and Division of Transportation stipulations. Overall, Kane  
County staff recommended approval with the stipulations. The Zoning Board of  
Appeals recommended approval with the stated stipulations. The Zoning Board  
of Appeals added two additional stipulations addressing the tree screening and  
fencing.  
Petitioner Andy Melka presented the new proposal for vegetative screening. He  
spoke on the landscaping that would surround this proposed solar facility. He  
noted that this project has wetlands located adjacent and to the south. The  
wetlands have been avoided within the site plan. He explained that extensive  
tree cover around the property would add additional vegetation to provide  
additional screening. Melka addressed questions and comments from the  
Committee. Discussion ensued.
