For Conference Action — Friday afternoon business session.
When a local church is closed or discontinued, its real and personal property is held by and disposed of through the Conference Board of Trustees under the Book of Discipline (¶2549 and the conference's trust provisions). Property resolutions authorize the conference's handling of that property — sale, transfer, or other disposition — and direct the use of net sale proceeds.
For North Georgia, net sales proceeds from closed-church property flow into the Barnes Fund for Church Development, with CFA/Trustees-approved distribution percentages (for 2025–26: BEAT innovative-ministry grants 5%, emerging-congregations grants 40%, ethnic-ministries funding 7.5%, church-property revitalization district grants 35%, Methodist Center property reserves 10%, contingency/lawsuit funding 2.5%).
The specific property resolutions are presented at the session; the written Conference Board of Trustees report (209) states the Board "has no matters before you for vote," so these come as floor business.
