The full picture AI research · Nov 1, 2026
A commercial site plan was filed with Ocean County for about 57,375 square feet of retail and commercial space on roughly 5.01 acres along Whitesville Road in Jackson Township. That is about the size of a mid-sized shopping center or several large stores combined.
The county record does not say what stores or businesses would occupy the space. It also does not say what is on the land now or how many buildings are planned. No news coverage, township agenda, hearing notice or developer page about this specific project was found online, so nothing is known about approvals or opposition.
The filing lists Whitesville Development, LLC and Professional Design Services, LLC. The most recent county filing is dated May 2024.
What it could mean nearby
- Traffic: a retail site of this size usually adds car trips on Whitesville Road, so driveway placement and any road improvements would likely be reviewed. The records give no details.
- Open space and drainage: building on 5 acres normally means new paved areas and stormwater controls, but no plan details were found.
Where it stands
The county has a filing dated May 2024. No township approval status was found online. A site plan like this normally goes to the township planning board for review and a public hearing, and construction permits follow if it is approved.
