During a recent meeting of the Keyport Borough Council, officials authorized a closeout change order in a contract that had been awarded to Down to Earth Landscaping Inc. for improvements to Veterans Park and Terry Park. The original contract, authorized in 2018, totaled $485,941.

According to a resolution, the firm completed work on the improvements and based on increases and decreases in quantities of materials that were required to complete the work, the original contract was reduced by $8,676 to a revised amount of $477,265.

And, council members adopted an ordinance appropriating $40,000 for improvements to the Keyport Senior Center. The money will come from the borough’s capital improvement fund.

Finally, council members authorized liquor license renewals. Plenary retail consumption licenses were issued to Keyport Waterfront Liquor, LLC (Old Glory Kitchen & Spirits) and Keyport Liquor License LLC (McDonagh’s Pub). Both licenses became effective on Oct. 1, 2020, and will expire on June 30, 2021, after which the governing body may renew them.

Pierson Commercial, a New Jersey provider of retail brokerage and advisory services, has been named the exclusive leasing agent of Hazlet Town Center, a 203,912-square-foot regional shopping center in the Route 35 Hazlet-Middletown retail market.

The shopping center is at the intersection of Route 35 and Bethany Road, Hazlet, and is owned by a joint venture between Onyx Equities and Siguler Guff and Co. and has undergone a façade renovation and repositioning associated with new tenant additions since being acquired by the group.

Gregg Medvin, vice president of Pierson Commercial, is spearheading the leasing team.

“The center has strategically positioned itself to attract both those tenants looking to right-size and relocate within the market, while also attracting retailers interested in entering the densely populated and highly trafficked corridor,” Medvin said.

The center’s repositioning efforts and leasing activity recently gained traction with the addition of Aldi and Burlington as new anchor tenants. The center’s growing tenant mix includes Planet Fitness, Bank of America, Quest Diagnostics and Great Clips, with Panera Bread and Wawa coming soon, according to a press release.
