A property in Brick that once housed a bank will be proposed before one of the township’s land use boards to operate as a medical marijuana dispensary and grow house, according to sources and documents obtained by Shorebeat.
The facility, owned by Jersey Shore Therapeutic Health Care, was one of those proposed earlier this summer to the administration of Gov. Phil Murphy, who is looking to expand the state’s medical marijuana program.
The facility would operate at 385 Adamston Road, a former OceanFirst Bank branch, and would include a 48,000 square foot cultivation facility where plants would be grown. The plot of land is owned by 385 Adamston Road LLC, which, according to tax records, is based at a law office owned by Anne Davis, an attorney who will be a co-owner of the business. A website for the business touts the location as “surrounded by a federal wildlife preserve, minimal foot traffic, neighboring our veterans at VFW Post 8867.” Davis, who operates a law office on Brick Boulevard, was formerly an associate with the firm operated by Nicholas Montenegro, a powerful Democratic attorney who represents the Brick school board and BTMUA.
