Champaign County is the site of several proposed solar panel installations, but only one of them would go up on a landfill site. That could happen, under a lease agreement approved by the Urbana City Council at their meeting Monday night. 

Several proposals for solar farms have come before Champaign County officials this year. The biggest proposal by far will come to the county board in January, after winning approval from the county Zoning Board of Appeals Thursday night.
