DECATUR, Ill. (WAND) - A large solar project is a step closer to coming online in Macon County.
The Macon County Board approved the next step for clean energy company Apex's Spring Creek solar project on Thursday night.
It's a large solar panel farm proposed to be north of Argenta, outside Maroa, along the Macon-DeWitt County line.
A development manager from Apex says if the county issues a building permit, construction would start sometime this summer.
