Neighboring Property Update
Greetings,
As many of you know, the church was approached by and entered into an agreement with the Myers Brothers in 2016, to sell them some of our undeveloped acreage to reduce the church's debt load. The church body voted to allow the sale of the land. It falls on the Board of Trustees committee to follow through with the vote of the congregation. The original development plans for the property fell through. The Myers Brothers, however, were still interested in the property. As the original dates of the agreement ended, they had asked for a 180-day extension, that the Trustees granted them. The 180-day extension is ended February and the Myers Brothers asked for another 180-day extension. After consulting with the Finance and Church Council committees, and receiving a recommendation from both to renew, the Trustees voted to renew for another 180 days. It was pointed out at these meetings that some of the congregation may not know that there is still interest in our property. We wanted to inform you that the land sale is still an ongoing process.
If you have comments or questions, please pick up an insert at Information Desk and return it to the Trustees' mail box in the office workroom and we will address them.
May God bless this church family.
Thank you, Scott Hilbelink Chair, Board of Trustees
