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, is set for 7 p.m. at the Brick Township Civic Center, 270 Chambers Bridge Road.

The previous hearing, in June, focused on the stormwater management plan and the potential for flooding. The hearing is expected to continue with questions for the Horton professionals on the stormwater plans.

Testimony on the project was nearly complete, which means residents will have the opportunity to ask questions and express their opinions on the project, and a vote could be taken soon.

The tract is surrounded by homes on all four sides, and currently is owned by Visitation Roman Catholic Church, which has a contract to sell it to D.R. Horton pending the outcome of the Planning Board hearing.
