A contractor's storage yard is proposed on about 10.4 acres along the northbound side of Route 9 in Stafford Township, Ocean County. County records describe it as an open yard for storing construction equipment and materials, plus an office building and maintenance buildings that total about 15,360 square feet.
The county filing does not say who will use the yard, what is on the land now, or which contractor is behind it. Crest Engineering Associates, Inc. is listed as the firm on the filing. That firm is most likely the project's engineer, not the owner.
No news coverage, township agenda or minutes, hearing notices, or developer web pages were found for this project. The explanation here rests on the county record alone.
What it could mean nearby
- Route 9 is a state highway, so any new driveway or turn would likely need state transportation review. The records do not describe the access plan.
- Trucks and equipment would likely enter and leave the site. The records give no traffic numbers.
- The records do not mention new homes, schools, or public open space. The buildings are small compared with the 10.4-acre site, so most of the land would probably be yard space.
Where it stands
The latest county filing is dated May 21, 2025, which suggests the project is in review. No approval or denial was found. Next steps usually include township planning board review of the site plan, a public hearing, and permits from the county and state.
