Solar farm proposed near Ludlow

LUDLOW — Work continues on a Champaign County zoning ordinance by the Zoning Board of Appeals that would regulate solar farms.

A rural Ludlow Township site is one of two that a Washington, D.C-based company hopes to turn into a community solar farm.
Located about 4 miles southwest of Ludlow, the solar farm would be located at the southeast edge of the corner of County Roads 3300N and 1300E.

Champaign County Department of Planning and Zoning officials continue working on amending their ordinance to allow for solar farm development.

The ZBA has received no comments from residents of the area near the proposed rural Ludlow solar farm. Neighbors of that site will be notified when the county takes up the application process for the proposed farm.
