BROOKHAVEN. Ga. - The city of Brookhaven has won a new trial for its mayor and city manager in the way they handled a real estate deal with Atlanta-based Ardent companies. In March 2022, a jury awarded the development company more than $6 million in damages for a proposed 2017 project which would have gone up near Buford Highway and Bramblewood Drive. The project would have brought more than 200 townhomes on a 17-acre plot of land. An appeals judge threw out that verdict late last year. Ardent claims Brookhaven continued to make them jump through hoops.
