The plans to redevelop a Monmouth County mall are scheduled to be discussed in front of a planning board Monday.

Kushner Companies and Rouse Properties submitted redevelopment plans for The Heights at Monmouth, a redevelopment project of the current Monmouth Mall, located in Eatontown. Jared Kushner, the son-in-law of President Donald Trump, was the leader of Kushner Companies until he accepted the position of Senior White House Advisor in 2017.

The 500,000-square-foot property, which opened in 1960, would have retail, entertainment, and medical spaces. The project will also add a 700-unit apartment complex, and a section of the property dedicated to upscale restaurants and wine bars. The price to complete the project is estimated to cost as much as $500 million.

The Eatontown Borough Planning Board will hear the redevelopment plans for the mall space. One group, Eatontown Residents for a Greater Mall, have voiced their concerns about the proposal on Facebook.

In a posting on the group's Facebook page, the group came up with the term "Mallgate," accusing borough officials of "having Kushner's back, not ours."

Eatontown Mayor Dennis Connelly did return a request for comment. However, in a May 2017 Wall Street Journal article, Connelly said the following: "Our town relies on the Monmouth Mall to survive, and we have for years. We need it to be successful today and in the future."

The current incarnation of the mall has seen tenants leave the Eatontown-based mall, which is the county's largest source of tax revenue. Officials hope the repurposed land will spur people to come to the property.

NJ Advance Media also reached out to Kushner Companies which directed us to Rouse Properties, the company handling public relations for the mall. A spokesman for Rouse Companies stated the company "respectfully declines to comment."

The planning board meeting is scheduled to take place 7:30 p.m. at the Eatontown Borough Council meeting room.
