Rockingham County Approves Rezoning for Up to 1,100 Homes Along Ellisboro Road
Rockingham County commissioners have approved a rezoning plan that will allow for the construction of up to 1,100 homes along Ellisboro Road.
Greensboro High Point Winston Salem, NC, October 19, 2026 —
Rockingham County commissioners have approved a rezoning plan that allows for the construction of up to 1,100 homes along Ellisboro Road.
The approval sets a maximum number of homes that the plan would allow; the summary does not say how many homes, if any, are scheduled to be built. It also does not identify the property owner or developer, describe the site’s size, or provide a construction timeline.
Details about the commissioners’ vote, including its date and margin, were not provided. The available information does not specify the previous or newly approved zoning designation, or whether additional approvals are required before construction can proceed.
The decision concerns a potential housing development in Rockingham County. No information was provided about the project’s expected cost, housing types, infrastructure plans, or effects on nearby residents and services. The approved rezoning permits a development of up to 1,100 homes, but the summary does not establish that the full number will be built.
