This is not a typical development in Brownsburg, and Hawk’s Landing is NOT inevitable.
YOU can make a difference!
The land was spared from a developer in 2021.
National homebuilder Lennar walked away from developing this land because the hilly, creek side site was too costly and complex for development. With enough community involvement, it can be saved again!
This site is uniquely difficult for developers.
White Lick Creek, split parcels, traffic constraints, and pedestrian safety issues (county roads with no shoulders or sidewalks) create real financial risk for developers.
Public pressure works.
More scrutiny = more conditions = higher costs. Builders respond to feasibility and cost. Community scrutiny, required safety improvements, environmental protections, and infrastructure demands all increase financial burden. When the numbers no longer make sense, builders walk away.
The decision is still active. Your voice changes outcomes.
The Town of Brownsburg Advisory Plan Commission (APC) has not approved this development. This is the time that public input matters the MOST. The APC reads emails and records comments. Concerns become conditions. Conditions become costs. Participation matters.
The landowner still has a choice.
If the proposal is denied by the Town of Brownsburg — or the builder (David Weekley Homes) backs out due to financial constraints — Connection Pointe Church can choose a better, community-centered future for this land.
Preserving this land is a community choice.
Once this land is developed, it is gone forever. The creek, the wildlife, and the open space cannot be reclaimed. This is a rare opportunity to protect something before it is lost.
This property could serve people, protect safety, and preserve nature — instead of
becoming another high-density subdivision. Your support, participation, and advocacy can change the outcome.
