NOBLESVILLE, Ind. -- The Noblesville Common Council approved the Morse Village project during Tuesday's regular council meeting, giving the green light for the city to create over 600 new homes near Morse Reservoir. In a 6-3 vote, councilors approved the $250 million mixed-use project for the development of new homes on the 175-acre area known as Morse Village. Now that the project has received zoning approval, the project will be reviewed by a Technical Advisory Committee, Architectural Review Board and internal construction document review. Police investigate threats directed at Noblesville city officials after Morse Village Project approval "The Morse Village development will provide additional housing and commercial opportunities to serve our community's growing need along with the investment and preservation of greenspace," said Noblesville Mayor Chris Jensen. "Much due diligence has been done by the Council, developer, and city to hear from the public and work together to adjust the project plan to meet the needs of current and future residents in the area. I appreciate the Council's thoughtful consideration for this development and look forward to its positive impact on the City of Noblesville." Previous reporting indicated the homes will be broken down into 250 high-end single-family homes, 150 townhouses (with 50 of these being developed as condominium units) and 250 multifamily residences. Morse Village would consist of three central portions: North Pointe, South Pointe and West Pointe. The North Pointe would be home to single-family, townhouse and multifamily housing alongside dining, retail and entertainment options. The South Pointe would feature single-family houses, green space and a wider amenity area. The project will also feature the construction of a roundabout at East 206th Street and Hague Road and 30,000 square feet of space that will be reserved for commercial, retail and professional office space. More information about all of the project’s features can be found here. Multiple homeowners have expressed their concerns about the development with FOX59/CBS4, citing concerns for the West Pointe portion of the project that they assert would have negative environmental implications for the local eagle nest and the wetlands in the area. Noblesville City Council approves $250 million development, 650 new homes near Morse Reservoir Mayor Jensen confirmed Monday that the Noblesville police were investigating after city officials received threats for throwing their support behind the project ahead of Tuesday night's vote. The City of Noblesville has previously announced its intentions to offer a preservation park where eagle watching will be available. These 30 acres will consist of “dedicated” green space and over six miles of trails and sidewalks. The project is expected to be phased over seven to 10 years and construction is currently slated to commence in 2025.
