A look at the week ahead...

A full report on the weekend's damp festivities is coming, but in the meantime, here's a peak at what's ahead:
New tenant soon for Comp USA site
The city's park board meets today at 5 p.m. at the Municipal Center, 5211 Maryland Way. It's followed at 7 p.m. with the Brentwood Planning Commission meeting.
On the planning commission's agenda, shared by Mayor Betsy Crossley but not found on the city's website, are consent items concerning the former Comp USA location in Mallory Corners Shopping Center (where Barnes & Noble is located); and approval of the final plat for the Brentwood Lights subdivision off Wildwood Drive. (A reliable source tells me the Mallory Corners tenant should be great for Brentwood, but a loss for Franklin.)
Regular agenda items include a signage plan for Town Center Corner retail building; a revised site plan for Judge Beans Bar-B-Que (the old Church Street Pub building), and a revised preliminary plan for the Lombardy subdivision.
If you have interest or questions on any of the above, try to be there.
