Zoning Petitions  
Petition # 4615 Petitioner: Robert Matson Trust (RPIL Solar 8,  
LLC)  
Development Chairman Ford introduced the petition and explained an  
adjustment to the location of the solar panels was distributed on the dais by  
staff.  
Greg Peloquin, Hampshire, speaking on behalf of many residents, explained the  
issue was about constructing a solar field of this size at the particular location,  
which was adjacent to schools, a nearby forest preserve ecosystem, and  
residents. He expressed concern about property values being reduced, danger  
and high voltage signs surrounding the field. He asked the board to protect the  
health, welfare and safety of the children, residents, and ecosystems.  
Development Chair Ford noted that the Zoning Board of Appeals did deny this  
petition and had 11 stipulations.  
Michelle Schutta, resident, shared a map of the Howard B. Thomas School,  
shared that she spoke to 36 residents about their concerns regarding the  
proposed solar field, as it would affect property values, ecosystems, and the  
rural nature of her nearby subdivision. The safety of the students was a major  
concern. Fire and evacuation concerns were also voiced. The location of the  
solar field on Rocket Hill (the highest point of the county) was not appropriate.  
Lynne Peloquin, a Hampshire resident, voiced that the location of the petitioner's  
solar field was all wrong. The proposed site was in the middle of a community  
located next to one of the most scenic roads in Kane County, and in the middle  
of the Cardinal Creek ecosystem. The solar field will destroy the character of  
Rocket Hill. Ms. Peloquin stated there were no long-term impact studies on the  
concerns raised. She further shared a one-minute video titled "Protect Rocket  
Hill," showing the proposed land. She asked the board to oppose the field..  
Dezeri DeRaedt, Jr., resident, agreed with the speakers and was supportive of  
Kane County. However, he believed the two adjacent schools were the top  
schools in the County and asked that a solar field not be located next to them.  
He asked the board to vote no on the petition.  
Mark Schrage, Elgin resident, explained that in 2012 the City of Elgin released  
their new water meters and he and his wife did not have the meter installed in  
their home due to no measurements of the EMFs emitted. The EMF's were not  
being researched which was a concern. He voiced the issue of Elgin's lead  
water pipes that lead to health issues 60 years later and the same could be  
applied to this proposal.  
Simon Schrage explained his concern was about razing good farmland and  
replacing it with a solar facility. He believed such fields should be placed on  
industrial land, contaminated land, or land near expressways. He did work for a  
solar installation business and he did not support three farms being torn up only  
to be replaced by solar fields. He shared a law passed in France regarding solar  
fields.  
Ben Jacobi, attorney for the applicants, thanked the Board for their  
consideration. He was joined by lead developer, Jeremy Price and land owner  
Robert Matson who lived in the community. Mr. Jacobi explained the tax  
benefits of solar fields. The lease was for 30-years and the land owner could  
return it to farmland. Mr. Jacobi explained this project was introduced to the  
Zoning Board on October 12, 2023 and the ZBA held no deliberations nor  
findings of facts and moved the petition forward to the Development Committee  
with a recommendation of denial. As a result, he said the petitioner made  
adequate revisions to the plan for the Development Committee and the plan was  
recommended for approval by the Development Committee. Mr. Jacobi was  
surprised the ZBA denied the project because the plan was consistent with the  
County's Zoning Ordinance and State statute. Neighborhood and school  
outreach discussions were held and the updated site plan now accommodated  
their requests. Mr. Jacobi reviewed the schools' adjustments to the new site  
plan. If the site plan was adjusted, he stated the schools would not object it. The  
county's health department had no concerns.  
Lead developer, Jeremy Price, reviewed the changes to vegetation, signage,  
and adjustments made to the site plan, noting some rows of solar panels would  
be removed.  
Robert Matson, owner of the site, explained his personal ties to Kane County.  
He explained that solar panels are progressive and he would live about 1.25  
miles from the proposed field. He agreed the site was a beautiful piece of  
property. Should the solar facility not be approved, he offered to take bids on  
his land.  
Mr. Jacobi said he met with the Kane County Forest Preserve who asked that  
the developer modify the seed mix that would go under and around the solar  
panels. to maximize regional consistency. As for comments about property  
value, Mr. Jacobi stated a colleague from CohnReznick (appraisal company)  
shared that studies done over 18 states found that solar facilities did not have a  
direct impact to property/land values.  
Mr. Price returned and addressed the environmental impacts of the project,  
sharing the positives to the environment and the nearby schools.  
Board questions arose regarding whether the petition complied with the county's  
code and state law, whether the school's concerns were addressed  
appropriately, and concerns of EMF emissions. Board members shared their  
support or opposition to the solar field. Member Ford believed more setback  
may be required.

Amending County Code Section 2-48: Standing Committees  
Regarding Setting Salaries  
Spec. ASA Shepro stated this ordinance was being introduced today as a first  
reading only. It would move to the regular December 12, 2023 County Board  
meeting. Much discussion ensued on the additions and deletions of this  
ordinance and the possible hindrance it would bring to department heads when  
when a quick decision is needed to hire a potential employee. HR Dir. Lobrillo  
explained the ordinance change gives the board the authority to make policies  
and set guidelines around the setting of salaries. Further discussion and  
clarification followed as to what was approved at the October meeting.  
(Sanchez arrives remotely at 1:37 p.m.)  
ASA Frank provided further clarification as to the statute and what was being  
presented. In effect, it was asking if the board wanted to have input in decisions  
made by executive directors as it relates to compensation. Further discussion  
was raised. (Ford leaves at 1:41 p.m.; Davoust leaves at 1:45 p.m.; Tepe leaves  
1:50 p.m.) The board agreed more information was needed and voted to send  
the matter to the regular December 12th meeting.
