Smoothie King Proposal Set To Go Before Brick Planners

BRICK, NJ — Smoothies, anyone?

The Brick Township Planning Board is scheduled to meet Wednesday evening to consider an application to demolish a home on Chambers Bridge Road and replace it with a Smoothie King shop.

The property is right across from Brick Commons, home to ShopRite.

Smoothie King offers smoothies made from whole fruits and vegetables, aimed at those who are pursuing fitness goals, the company says. It also aims to encourage healthy lifestyles.

The planning board meeting is set for 7 p.m. at the Brick Township municipal building, 401 Chambers Bridge Road.

The first full week of December is quiet, as Brick held its menorah lighting and Christmas tree lighting celebrations last week. You can see photos from both on the township's Facebook page.

A reminder that the national "Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over" campaign kicked off Friday, and Brick Township will be stepping up enforcement of impaired driving as well. Read more: DWI Enforcement Ramps Up For Holidays In Brick
