An Aurora City Council committee this week backed a program proposed by Ald. John Laesch to subsidize people looking to add solar panels to their houses.

Laesch said he would review all the applicants, looking to see if a proposal is a good candidate for solar or not – for instance, if the applicant has a roof shielded by heavy tree growth, or one that is not positioned correctly.He said because the program “is more of a pilot program,” he will see what kind of interest he gets.
Laesch added he intends to work with the statewide Citizens Utility Board, or CUB, to do the program, although any homeowner who goes on their own would be eligible to apply, too.
