Default Villages purchase of First Baptist building
The Villages has been in negotiations to purchase the former building of the First Baptist church on Rt 42 to be used as a rec center in the Marion county expansion of CDD4. It was announced during the service yesterday and probably is in the happy paper today that First Baptist has backed out of the process and will not be selling the building to the Villages. First Baptist wanted the Villages to provide some of the functionality of the old building in their new church via remodeling as part of the deal, but the Villages would not agree to that stipulation.
