Summary

On first reading the council declared certain Fort McClellan property surplus and proposed transfer to the county for multipurpose recreational trails; the ordinance will return for a second reading at a future meeting.

The Anniston City Council introduced an ordinance on first reading declaring city-owned property in Fort McClellan surplus and authorizing transfer of the property to Calhoun County for the stated purpose of multipurpose recreational trails.

The measure was presented for reading by title only and the council moved and seconded the reading; no public comments were offered during the hearing. Because this was the ordinance's first reading, no final adoption occurred; the ordinance will be considered again at the council's second reading at a subsequent meeting.

Council members performed a roll call on the procedural motion to read the ordinance by title only. No amendments or conditions were recorded on the first reading. The transcript notes the council reiterated that the second reading will occur at the next council meeting, at which time members may take further action.

The item was introduced as a city-initiated surplus declaration tied to a proposed intergovernmental conveyance to the county for trail development; details on the exact parcel identifiers, transfer conditions, and timing were not specified at the meeting.
