The St. Petersburg City Council wants to work with the Tampa Bay Rays on the future of the Tropicana Field site.

After hearing from the Rays’ business leaders Thursday afternoon, Council members unanimously approved a resolution Thursday night calling on Mayor Rick Kriseman’s administration not to bring an agreement with a developer to the Council for approval until the future of the Rays is determined.

“I think we need to hit the pause button on the master developer selection process until we figure out what’s happening with the Rays,” said Council member Darden Rice, a mayoral candidate who proposed the resolution. During debate on the resolution a few hours later, she said, “It sends a notice that we want to start talking and we want to see clear results and outcomes from those conversations.”
