Vacate all prior recorded antiquated resolutions and terminate the Interlocal Agreement with Pinellas County concerning the property Old City Hall now subject to a purchase and sale contract and adopt Resolution 24-05.

 

Body

SUMMARY: 

On November 8, 2022, the City of Clearwater entered into a Sales Agreement to sell the “Old City Hall” property.

In support thereof, on December 7, 2023, the City approved the vacation of two abandoned Utility easements.

During the preliminary title approval process, recorded documents (antiquated property use Resolutions and obsolete Pinellas County Interlocal Planning Agreement) were confirmed as needing termination, thereby allowing the Buyers to obtain a cleared title insurance policy.

Adopting this Resolution is the City’s good faith effort to remove encumbrances and facilitate the sale of the Property.

City staff have reviewed and approved this Resolution and recommend adoption.
