Bruce Steadman, executive director of the Fort Monmouth Economic Revitalization Authority, or FMERA, likewise declined to comment. Netflix did not return a request for comment.
On July 21, FMERA, the state agency redeveloping the former U.S. Army base, created a new 289-acre "Mega Parcel" on land that lies in parts of Eatontown and Oceanport. FMERA said it's open to several industries purchasing the site, including film and digital, but also life sciences, information and high tech, clean energy and the food and beverage industry.
Steadman said they haven't opened the parcel to public bids, yet. Typically, one purchaser is selected for a Fort Monmouth parcel. Steadman did not comment when asked if the authority would be willing to divide the parcel between multiple buyers.
