A self-storage facility of about 99,862 square feet is proposed on roughly 2.06 acres off Van Zile Road in Brick Township. Self-storage means rentable indoor units where people and businesses keep belongings. The county record lists Colliers Engineering & Design, an engineering firm, on the filing, which was made as a site plan.
A February 2026 local news report describes a self-storage warehouse planned at 133 Van Zile Road, the site of a closed bank branch across from a church. The report could not be opened in full. Its size, the developer's name and the hearing schedule were not confirmed, and its link to this exact filing is likely but not verified.
No opposition, approval or future occupant was found in the sources that could be read.
What it could mean nearby
- Self-storage usually brings fewer daily vehicle trips than retail or offices, but the records do not include a traffic study.
- The news report suggests a closed bank building would be replaced, so the site appears to be already developed rather than open land.
- The records show no homes, schools or utility changes, and few permanent jobs are likely.
Where it stands
The county's latest filing is dated 2025-09-30, and the project appears to be at the local site plan review stage. Next steps usually include a public hearing before the township's land use board, a vote, and then state or county permits if approved.
