Infrastructure not here for that many homes
Too many new homes already being built

I have lived in Stokesdale my entire life. This area and into Rockingham county on Ellisboro road can barely handle the traffic it has now. Another 1100+ houses would decimate this area. Water sources, schools, traffic, emergency services would all be overwhelmed. This county is not ready for all of this.

This possible growth in Rockingham county will change our community extremely!! You must reconsider the allowing such a development in this area.
It would be outrageous to our environment, traffic, & schools.

I grew up on a farm and still live on a
farm in our county. I witness daily what the over building of homes are costing us in farmland. It is sad to see so many generational farms being sold to greedy developers to build homes in our area for people to move into that don't know or care about our traditions & way of life. Our schools and roads are already overwhelmed. I know that I personally prefer to know where my food is raised vs that which is potentially exposed to any kind of chemicals.

I live on Sardis Church road and this would be detrimental to the area. Which would result in Infrastructure Problems, Traffic Problems, Safety Problems, Enviromental Impacts and Economic Development Vision Issues.

Our little town is too small to have this many homes added , there won't be enough space in schools, not enough jobs, and it will take longer for firemen and police to get to place to place. You will be giving up so much history on the land that we have left. Keep housing communities in the city not in the country.

I have lived on mineral springs rd 25 years and traffic is horrible now as a cut thru. We definitely don't need traffic from 3,100 homes.

What will happen to the ecosystem in this area? The state protected birds of prey(barn owls) the federally protected beavers that dam up the creeks? The deer population will not go down they will just cause more accidents, what will be the impact from the pollution from the construction- runoff into the creeks and into Dan river? The coyotes will be forced to neighboring farms. Who are the people coming? How many rapist, murders, sex affenders? How many on disability, ss, and food stamps?

This is important to me because I have lived in the area for 46 years of my life. All the farm land is being put houses even on Gold Hill Road. They’re popping up everywhere and I have lived on that road all my life and it’s ridiculous. That is right there where a whole bunch of farmland is we need that farmland. The Lord has given us a gift in the gift is the land that we live on and we eat off of it we grow things to help our community, not homes food land we have enough people living in Madis
