Ideally I'd like to treat it as a struct since I'm using it in a delegate I would like to minimize unnecessary allocations. Is there any way to get D to allocate a class on the stack like a local struct?

Prefix the variable declaration with "scope":

scope foo = new Object;

If you use this option, do be aware that this feature has been scheduled for future deprecation [1]. It's likely going to continue working for quite a while (years), though.
