Following the recent coverage regarding a future townhome development in Brookhaven, Mayor John Ernst engaged management of the new developer (and current landlord) to better understand the facts and negotiate a lease extension for the remaining residents at Park Villa Apartments, 2095 Burton Plaza Lane, NE, who expressed that they needed additional time to relocate.
“This real estate transaction was between two private parties and technically does not involve the city of Brookhaven at this time,” said Mayor John Ernst. “Having said that, I was concerned about the potential impact on certain tenants and brought my concerns to the developer. Based on our discussion, I was pleased to learn that they shared the same concerns and have agreed to extend the lease deadline an additional 21 days for those who need more time to find suitable housing. There was no legal obligation on their part, per the term of the existing leases, but they chose to cooperate as good community partners.”
