The Sales subcommittee drafted the basic requirements for applicants who want to be the listing agent for the two properties.
To be clear, the two properties are listed on this map are numbered 1 and 2. The #2 property is currently the preschool. the woodshop and the thrift mall. The #1 property is the soccer field property.
The sales subcommittee assumes the #2 property will be sold as residential or commercial property. The #1 property, the sales subcommittee assumes will remain residential property.
Any offer will be evaluated by the Building Oversight Committee, the Trustees would approve or disapprove the sales offer.
The sales subcommittee wanted to make it clear that church members who are agents and are qualified to handle the listing are encouraged to apply. But the committee said the choice will be made based on the quality of the application with no preference given as to whether the listing agent is a PCC member or not.
Deed restrictions
The subcommittee began considering what restrictions PCC should place on the property beyond what the City of St. Petersburg allows. Generally, the subcommittee recognizes that the fewer restrictions there are on a property, the more attractive the property might be to a buyer. However, the church has an interest in protecting against some uses of the property. Largely, the Among the restrictions, the subcommittee is considering would be not allowing a competing preschool, liquor store, church, mobile home park, or convenience store. When a developer makes an offer, they would agree to or negotiate the restrictions.
