Proposal for 354 homes along SR 32 has Noblesville City Council worried about high density
A Noblesville residential development of 354 homes proposed on the northeast side along State Road 32, with homes selling for as much as $800,000, sparked some questions about the project's density. An attorney for Fishers-based Boomerang Development said the Parks Crossings homes would be of different styles and values and, therefore, 'multigenerational." 'You can move up in the neighborhood, you can stay with your friend network, that's unique in Noblesville,' said Jon Dobosiewicz, of Nelson & Frankenberger in Carmel. The project, by home builder DR Horton, of Texas, would be on 124 acres between SR 32 and 181st Street east of where SR 32 and State Road 38 meet near Promise Road. One section of the development will have 58 of the most expensive 'luxury' homes, Dobosiewicz said, selling for $600,000 to $800,000. Another 115 homes built as ranch or two-story, will be priced between $375,000 and $500,000. Sixty-six homes will be two-family villas for older residents, selling for $325,000 to $400,000. The largest grouping of homes, 120, will be the cheapest. The two-story townhouses would sell for $300,000 to $375,000. The complex would have a large pond along SR 32 next to the main entrance, a swimming pool, sports courts, garden plots, "ample dog parks" and outdoor space. Some councilors expressed concern about the number of homes in the development with the addition of the large townhouse section. 'I just feel like we've had quit a few of these very dense neighborhoods over the years and I just worry about … keeping up with public safety as fast as we're growing,' Councilor Mark Boice said. 'So I would ask for us to move with caution when we look at these high-density neighborhoods. It makes me scared to think of them coming at us this quickly.' Councilor Scott Thurston said concerns about density aside, he liked the plans for the villas and the outdoor area. 'I do like the duplex product coming here. I don't think we have a lot of them,' he said. Thurston said he would like to see several open spaces — rather than one central green —, within the development, likening them to 'pocket parks or sitting areas.' 'More areas for a community to gather as a community within a community,' he said. The proposal will now go to the Plan Commission for consideration before heading back to the council for a vote.
