Summary

Anniston’s council adopted an ordinance declaring certain city-owned parcels surplus and authorizing conveyance to the county for multipurpose recreational channels after a public hearing with no public comment.

The Anniston City Council adopted an ordinance declaring specified city property surplus and authorizing its conveyance to the county for use as multipurpose recreational channels.

Council opened and closed a public hearing on the ordinance with no public comments, moved to read the ordinance by title only and then voted to adopt it on second reading. Council members recorded affirmative responses during the roll call and the ordinance was declared passed.

Council members said the transfer could generate local tax revenue and jobs; the transcript mentions those potential benefits but provides no estimates or detailed fiscal analysis. The ordinance was on its second reading after an initial first reading at a prior meeting; the council followed the reading-by-title procedure before adoption. The transcript does not include parcel identifiers or a map in the excerpt; the full ordinance text and parcel descriptions should be consulted in the official minutes for exact property details.
