This is a map as of May 24 of counties that are backing county rights when it comes to the language of SB1602
Over two-thirds of Illinois counties are voting to oppose a proposed state law. Over 70 counties passed resolutions to preserve county zoning rights.
“A majority of these counties, that have adopted these resolutions, already have turbines,” said Livingston County precinct committee member Rebekah Fehr. “Illinois is number five in the U.S. for wind development.”
McLean County has adopted zoning ordinances, which Fehr said is more restrictive than what the governor wants them to do.
