Insights

Regency Centers' acquisition of Brentwood Place Shopping Center represents a strategic portfolio expansion that strengthens the REIT's position in the high-growth Nashville market. At 320,000 square feet with a 95% occupancy rate, this property immediately contributes stable cash flow while offering upside through the identified lease-up and remerchandising opportunities.

The tenant roster featuring Nordstrom Rack, Total Wine, TJ Maxx/HomeGoods, and Golf Galaxy provides a resilient anchor base that generates consistent foot traffic (4.3 million annual visitors) and supports smaller tenants. The property's location adjacent to the planned 350,000-square-foot Vanderbilt Medical Campus development creates a significant potential catalyst for increased foot traffic and tenant demand.

This acquisition aligns with Regency's core strategy of owning high-quality, grocery-anchored neighborhood and community shopping centers in affluent suburbs with strong demographics. While financial terms weren't disclosed, the deal likely contributes incrementally to Regency's $12.8 billion market cap and should enhance the company's operating metrics given the center's high occupancy.

The transaction demonstrates management's continued execution on their stated growth strategy of expanding in desirable submarkets while maintaining portfolio quality. For a REIT of Regency's size, the ability to identify and secure properties with both stable income and enhancement potential is important for delivering shareholder value.

Springfield's former city manager, Jason Gage, has landed his next gig. His hiring in a Nashville suburb was announced late last week.

Gage served as Springfield's city manager since 2018 until he resigned in early January. He has now been hired in Brentwood, Tennessee, assuming the role at the end of April, according to a Brentwood city news release.

According to the employment agreement on the Brentwood Board of Commissioners' agenda Monday night, Gage will receive a base salary of $267,500. When he was hired in Springfield, he made $220,000, but the most recent amendment to his employment agreement, the fourth of its kind, increased his salary to $267,644.52 in September. According to local Williamson Scene reporting, Brentwood's former city manager earned roughly $221,000.

The agreement also includes a $430 monthly car allowance, full reimbursement of relocation expenses, a $1,000 monthly housing allowance for six months or until Gage's Springfield home sells, and a year's worth of salary severance pay in the event of termination or resignation at the board's request.

According to the Decennial Census data, Brentwood has a population of approximately 45,300, compared to Springfield's 169,000. Compared to Springfield's more than $507 million budget, Brentwood has a city budget of roughly $108 million.

After leaving the Springfield job, Gage received a full year's compensation, benefits and accrued vacation totaling more than $300,000. According to previous News-Leader reporting, the prior three city managers did not receive severance upon their resignation or retirement. Springfield Mayor Ken McClure previously told media Gage had agreed to serve in a consulting role for up to a year following his resignation.

Springfield City Council has embarked on a nationwide search for his successor, allocating up to $35,000 for a Texas-based recruitment agency's services, though the timeline for selecting a new permanent city manager is still uncertain. Deputy City Manager Collin Quigley is serving in the role in the interim.

SPRINGFIELD, Mo. (KY3) - Springfield’s former city manager, Jason Gage, named as the new city manager in Brentwood, Tennessee.

Jason Gage stepped down from his role as Springfield’s city manager in January 2025. At the time, Gage said he felt the time was right to move on.

Despite the resignation, he received a compensation package of $316,000.

“With a new Council may come shifted community priorities. Recognizing when it is time to embrace new challenges is often as crucial as celebrating past accomplishments, and I believe that time is now,” he said.

The city of Brentwood named Gage as its new city manager on Friday. He will begin his new role on April 28.

“We are pleased to announce our decision to hire our new City Manager, Jason Gage,” Brentwood Mayor Mark Gorman said. “We believe Jason matches the culture and performance expectations of all stakeholders. Jason understands we are looking for incremental improvement and not structural change. Please join me in welcoming Jason Gage as our new city manager.”

Gage was among five finalists, out of more than 50, applicants for the role in Tennessee. The city of Brentwood says the former city manager retired after more than 24 years.

“I am very excited to be selected as Brentwood’s next manager,” Gage said. “Brentwood is a very special place. It is my privilege to work for this city commission, lead their highly qualified staff team, and serve this incredible community!”

Significant Accomplishments during Jason Gage’s tenure as Springfield’s City Manager:

Collin Quigley has taken over as Springfield’s interim city manager. Quigley was promoted to deputy city manager in 2018.

Quigley has shared that he is not a candidate for the permanent City Manager position but is dedicated to serving the city in the interim. The city council and Executive Search Firm Strategic Governmental Resources (SGR) are conducting a nationwide search.
