HEARING REQUIRED: No Hearing Required
SUMMARY:
In 2007, the Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) and the City of Pensacola each entered into Interlocal Agreements (IAs) with the Pensacola Downtown Improvement Board (DIB) for the creation of a Downtown Parking Management District providing a comprehensive strategy for centralized and efficient management of downtown parking and facilities. These agreements transferred management of CRA and City-owned parking facilities in the downtown business district to the DIB. The 0.42 acre property, owned by the CRA, located at 150 S. Baylen Street, currently serves as a surface parking lot and is included among the list of sites covered by these IAs.
The Community Redevelopment Agency has stated its desire to comprehensively market available CRA-owned properties in the Urban Core Community Redevelopment Area. To date, the positioning of parcels for redevelopment has been an effective tool in the successful revitalization of Pensacola’s Downtown Urban Core. On August 9, 2016, the CRA approved a contract with NAI/Halford for Realtor Services for disposition of CRA-owned properties. On March 30, 2017, NAI/Halford received a full price offer for purchase of 150 S. Baylen Street which was presented to the CRA. On April 10, 2017, the CRA approved the sale of the site.
In order to facilitate the potential disposition of the property, this site must be removed from the Interlocal Agreements governing downtown parking management and facilities between the City and the DIB, and the CRA and the DIB. The Pensacola Downtown Improvement Board (DIB) has indicated its consent to the removal of the parking lot at 150 S. Baylen Street from the list of properties covered by the Parking Management District Interlocal Agreement to facilitate its sale. The attached amendment to the Interlocal Agreement must be executed by the City, the CRA and the DIB.
