The proposed new satellite location is also in Hazlet. Of the total bond issue, $7 million would be used for the new campus location, and the county is currently doing due diligence on One Crown Plaza, a vacant 25,500-sf office building on four acres on Laurel Ave. in that community, according to county finance director Mark Acker. The remaining $5.4 million of the bond issue would be used to renovate an existing arena on Brookdale's main campus in the Lincroft section of Middletown.
The Bayshore Higher Education Center is one of four satellite campuses outside of Brookdale's main campus. County officials say the acquisition of One Crown Plaza could be approved and completed within the next 90 days.
