280 Unit Rental Community, Stone Ridge Crossing, Proposed For North End Of Boyers Road
By Scott Rogers • August 1, 2023
Remember the north end of Boyers Road? It used to be connected to Route 33 but now it ends in a cul-de-sac. The proposed development shown above, Stone Ridge Crossing, is proposed for the west side of the north end of Boyers Road. The proposed developer of this parcel is requesting that Rockingham County rezone 27 +/- acres from A-2 (agricultural) to R-5 (residential) to allow for the construction of this apartment style development. According to the developer's Plan Description in the Rezoning Application Packet in the Planning Commission Packet for August 1, 2023 (tonight), the actual residences will be a mix of single family detached, duplex and townhouse style apartment housing -- but they will all be owned by, and rented by, a single entity. As such, this 280 unit residential developments would all be rentals... with none of the residences offered for sale. The developer intends to include a clubhouse fitness facility, swimming pool, and multiple picnic areas, fire pit and grilling areas, as well as pocket parks. Of the proposed 280 residential units, no more than 33% of the units would be 3-bedroom units and none would be 4-bedroom (or more) units. This proposed development would include up to 280 residential rental units, which would join the list of approximately 3,368 other rental units that are already under construction, approved, planned or proposed in the City Harrisonburg and/or in the areas of Rockingham County just surrounding the City. Here are all of the other potential upcoming rental developments on that list of 3,368 potential new rentals... Altitude Apartments, Phase 2 (102) Bluestone Town Center (~600) Apartments at Peach Grove (460, Peach Grove Avenue) Lingerfelt Development Apartments (376, also on Peach Grove Avenue) Apartments at Regal Cinemas (274) The Wentworth (271, in StonePort) Epoch (265, near the Wellness Center) Valley View Village (420, on Reservoir Street) The Edge (156, on East Market Street) Two41 (142, on East Market Street) Mixed Use on Reservoir Street (100) Wilson Avenue (34, North Main Street) Boyers Crossing (48) Stoney Ridge (72, South Main Street) Chicago Avenue Apartments (48) I imagine many people in our local community would probably prefer that a new 280 unit residential development would be single family detached homes, duplexes and townhomes offered for sale -- instead of for rent -- but the developer who is proposing the rezoning prefers to keep the residences and rent them to tenants. It will be interesting to see how the Rockingham County staff, Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors respond to this request. The Planning Commission will have a public hearing regarding this proposed rezoning tonight, August 1, at 6:30 PM.
