From the meeting
On August 17, 2026 the council took up an access and utility easement for the airport solar project with Community Power Group, now Galesburg Air Solar 1 LLC. The easements let the project connect to Ameren and access city property for construction and future maintenance. The solar lease dates to 2019 and runs 25 years with two optional five-year extensions.
Construction was expected to begin later in 2026, so the useful sales angle is follow-on interconnection, access, and maintenance work.
