Breton Woods Homes Proposal Hearing Continues In Brick

BRICK, NJ — The Brick Township Planning Board is scheduled to continue hearing the proposal to put 59 homes on a 30-acre parcel in the Breton Woods on Monday.

The hearing on "The Havens at Metedeconk" development proposed by D.R. Horton, the developer of the parcel off Laurel Avenue.

The hearing is set for 7 p.m. at Civic Center, 270 Chambers Bridge Road, is anticipated to focus on the engineering report, including stormwater management.

Brick residents who oppose the development have raised concerns about the impact on the environment and wildlife on the parcel, which is owned by Visitation Roman Catholic Church but has a contract to sell the parcel to D.R. Horton.

The group, Save Breton Woods, has been fighting the development, and Save Barnegat Bay has hired an attorney to assist in the fight.
