Council approves deed transfer of small King's Terrace parcel back to original grantor
Summary
Council authorized staff and the mayor to prepare and execute a deed transferring a small green-space tract in King's Terrace back to the original grantor after staff recommended the city reverse the prior gift because the city does not maintain similarly sized parcels.
City staff told the council the parcel in question, known as King's Terrace, had been intended as pocket park space but is too small to serve typical city park functions and adds a unique maintenance burden. Staff recommended returning the tract to the original grantor by deed to reduce maintenance obligations and maintain consistency with how the city manages other green spaces.
Council member (speaker 12) moved to approve authorizing staff and the mayor to prepare and execute the deed; the motion was seconded and council approved the item. "Mayor and council, item 3 is, over in King's Terrace...we could let go and it would help the overall workflow," staff said when introducing the item. The council did not record a detailed roll-call vote in the transcript for this motion; the item was announced as passed.
