Crete, Illinois, approves plans for a solar farm, one of several in Will County, promising annual tax revenue.

Crete, Illinois, has approved plans for a solar farm, the Falconhead Solar farm, including land annexation and a special use permit.

Despite this progress, a solar project near Frankfort was withdrawn last year due to resident concerns over pollution and property values.
