The full picture AI research · Nov 1, 2026
A developer has applied to divide about 26 acres on Whitesville Road in Toms River into 24 lots for single-family homes. The plan also sets aside one large lot of roughly 13 acres. That lot would hold a clubhouse, which the county calls a community center, plus open space.
The county filing is dated January 21, 2026. Local news coverage said the township planning board was due to hear the application in January 2026. The developer is reported to be asking for exceptions to township rules. One is for a small play area along Whitesville Road. Another is for a 30-foot landscape buffer where the ordinance normally calls for 50 feet.
No outcome was found online. The sources don't say whether the board approved, continued or denied the plan. No opposition, and no information on who would live there, was found either.
What it could mean nearby
- The plan adds up to 24 new single-family homes on Whitesville Road, which could add local traffic and turning movements.
- About half the site is planned as a clubhouse and open space lot, so much of the land would stay undeveloped.
- The reduced landscape buffer requested could affect how the homes look from the road and from neighboring properties.
Where it stands
A planning board hearing was reported as scheduled for January 2026, but no decision was found in public sources. If the board approves, the developer usually returns for final approval and then needs construction and utility permits.
