Summary
Arkansas City authorized a quitclaim deed transferring about 0.26 acres located at Eighth and Radio Lane to H.M. Villers Jr. and Brody Villers as a gift; staff said the parcel had been city-owned for decades and was maintained by the recipients.
The Arkansas City Commission on June 17 authorized the mayor to execute a quitclaim deed transferring approximately 0.26 acres of city-owned land at the corner of Eighth and Radio Lane to H.M. Villers Jr. and Brody Villers as a gift.
City staff told commissioners the parcel has been city-owned for many years and that the Villers family has maintained it for roughly 30 years. Staff said the parcel is not needed for municipal use and that transferring it will place the property back on the tax rolls.
The motion to authorize the mayor to execute the quitclaim deed passed unanimously by voice vote. No opposition or conditions were raised during the meeting. The commission did not specify whether new property taxes or assessments would take effect immediately or at a later date; staff did not provide a timetable for recording the deed during the meeting.
