Stonehaus Development was the initial developer. The development was approved by the Board of Supervisors in October 2004, with plans for 775 housing units on 207 acres.[1]
Ground was broken in May 2007; the development is promoted as a "sustainable community"[2] and is being developed to LEED neighborhood standards[3].
In October 2007 Stonehaus donated a portion of land in the neighborhood to SOCA for development of new soccer facilities, including four grass fields, an all-weather turf field and a fieldhouse with an indoor arena.[4]
In November 2008, Wachovia Bank notified the county that it would not renew six letters of credit for Belvedere Station Land Trust, record owner of the project. As a result, the county has received money under a performance bond, which may be used to complete infrastructure upgrades required by the project. [5]]
