Brick Orthodox School Hearing Postponed

BRICK, NJ — The Brick Township Board of Adjustment hearing on the application by Congregation Kehilos Yisroel to operate a high school for Orthodox Jewish boys at the former Temple Beth Or property that was set for Wednesday night has been postponed.

The township distributed a notice Wednesday morning announcing the cancellation of the meeting that was set for the Civic Center, a notice from the zoning board secretary said.

The zoning board hearing was ordered by Ocean County Superior Court Judge Craig Wellerson as part of the legal wrangling over the lawsuit Brick Township filed on Aug. 20, seeking an injunction to force the congregation to seek township approvals to operate the school.

It heard an initial portion of the application during a four-hour meeting on Dec. 20 and carried the application to February due to requests for an additional traffic study and other materials. Read more: Hearing On Brick Orthodox School Continued To February

The hearing has been carried to the March 30 zoning board meeting, the notice said. It did not give a reason for the postponement.

The announcement said there will not be further notices to property owners or anyone else entitled to notice.

The March 30 Board of Adjustment meeting is set for 7 p.m. at Civic Plaza, 270 Chambers Bridge Road, Brick.
