Brick Township\u2019s zoning board has approved a proposal by developer Jack Morris to modify the site plan of a shopping center that already houses a Wawa to host three fast food restaurants.<\/p>\n

The three restaurants \u2013 Taco Bell, Burger King and Bojangles \u2013 will be built where a bank and a Popeyes restaurant were previously planned and approved. They will be located next to the Wawa store at the intersection of Route 88 and Jack Martin Boulevard, in front of the Laurelton Mobile Home Park. Each of the fast food restaurants will have their own buildings and their own separate drive-through lanes. Aside from changing the site plan of the property, the drive-through lanes were the primary driver that brought the application before the zoning board since variances for sign boards were required. All three of the businesses are allowed in the B-3 zone, in which the property is located.<\/p>\n

The developer proposed a 2,443 square foot pad for Taco Bell; a 2,470 square foot pad for Bojangles; and a 2,822 square foot pad for Burger King. The row of restaurants will include 63 parking spaces and four electric vehicle charging stations. The westernmost building will house the Burger King, with the Bojangles in the middle and the Taco Bell on the eastern portion of the site, as viewed from Route 88. The approval brings the commercial properties slightly closer to Askin Lane, which is contained within the neighboring trailer community.<\/p>\n

The board approved variances allowing 10 wall signs on the Taco Bell building, five on the Bojangles building and five on the Burger King building. There will also be two low-height \u201cmonument\u201d signs to direct traffic into the corridor. There are also several menu boards, pre-menu boards and \u201cclearance boards\u201d for each of the restaurants. The proposed layout of the parcel is embedded in this article.<\/p>\n

Brick is already home to both a Burger King and Taco Bell location, however the site will be the first Bojangles restaurant to open in the local area. Bojangles, based in North Carolina, specializes in Cajun-seasoned fried chicken and buttermilk biscuits. The chain recently announced it would be expanding in the New Jersey market after seeing considerable success in the southeast as well as Pennsylvania, Texas and Tennessee. Along with New Jersey, the chain is also planning expansions into California, Nevada and Arizona. The company currently operates 818 locations.<\/p>\n

The approvals are separate from another group of three quick-serve restaurants<\/a> \u2013 a Chipotle Mexican Grill, Starbucks and Quickway Hibachi \u2013 that were recently approved for the Laurel Square shopping center, just slightly northeast on Route 88.<\/p>\n
