The Homewood Planning Commission approved a resurvey and an amended development plan for portions of Brookwood Village that carve out a new lot to support a future 30,000‑square‑foot shell space and to reconfigure mall levels into additional parking to serve Andrews Sports Medicine and future tenants.

Alex Patillo of Scholl Engineering explained the resurvey intent: split existing Lot 1 to create Lot 1FC adjacent to a previously recorded Lot 1K to facilitate transfer of ownership and future construction. "The final development plan has been amended to reflect this resurvey plat, and it also shows on Lot 1FC the proposed future work that is to take place," Patillo said.

Nancy Faron, representing Andrews Sports Medicine and the purchaser of the expansion area, said parking will be shared and that the amendment ensures Andrews will have substantial parking for their proposed medical/office use. "Parking would be shared there," Faron said, adding that "the additional purchase ... is to ensure that Andrews does have substantial parking as well as enough room for a 30,000 square foot, core and shell of future office, medical whatever that may be." She and project representatives said the plans mathematically exceed code parking requirements for the proposed uses and that 156 spaces will be dedicated and reserved for Andrews' patients.

Mel McElroy, working with Fairway (the project owner), said cross-parking easement drafts are currently with the city attorney and will be reviewed prior to any certificate of occupancy to ensure adequate parking. "Those drafts are with the city attorney ... before a CO can be issued for any work, those agreements will have to be approved," McElroy said.

Commissioners clarified how the mall levels will be reconfigured: one lower mall level will remain parking, an intermediate mall level will be converted entirely to parking, and the top level will be a mix of core-and-shell space and parking. Applicants said the carved lot allows Andrews to meet parking requirements without structural demolition between expansion joints.

The resurvey (RS2510O5) passed, with one commissioner recusing on a related vote; the amended development plan (AD2510O6) passed and will go to city council with a 6–0 affirmative vote and one recusal noted for the record.

Votes at a glance:
- RS2510O5 (resurvey of Brookwood Village lot): Approved 6–0–1 (one recusal reported).
- AD2510O6 (amended development plan to create core-and-shell space and parking): Approved 6–0–1; forwarded to city council.

Patillo said the lower level parking will remain and mid-level mall space will be converted to parking while the top level will contain the 30,000‑square‑foot core-and-shell space and additional parking. The applicant said closing on the purchase for Andrews was "within the next two weeks," and that cross-parking agreements are being finalized with the city attorney prior to CO issuance.
