Meshes for McHenry

Thank you for all of the support. It has been my honor to serve on the McHenry County Board for the last four years. Although the results will not be official until all mail in ballots are counted, my time serving District 1 is coming to an end. I have truly appreciated working with the dedicated officials and staff of the county. I encourage people to step up for office and make the difference only they can in their community.

WOODSTOCK, Ill. – If you’re interested in the future of solar energy in McHenry County and Illinois, you’ll want to attend the next presentation of the 2024 Talk and Tour series.

The second presentation of the 2024 season is a Solar Summit that will take place from 1 to 3 p.m. Friday, June 21, in Conference Room A of the McHenry County Administration Building, 667 Ware Road, Woodstock.

A panel of experts will discuss solar farms, the current state of solar power in McHenry County, and what the future may hold. The panel consists of John Carson, founder of Trajectory Energy Partners, and Kimberly Scharlow, who as a planner with the McHenry County Department of Planning and Development helps oversee solar farm permitting.

The Talk and Tour series, now in its third year, is co-hosted by the McHenry County Planning and Development Department and the Environmental Defenders of McHenry County. County government and the Environmental Defenders teamed up in 2022 to present a series of workshops that showcase the environmental and economic benefits of innovative best management practices that have been successfully implemented in our region. Each of the best management practices are designed to protect and maintain the
integrity of natural resources, reduce flooding in communities, and promote land, water and energy conservation.

The event is free, but attendees must register in advance by visiting
