HANNIBAL â The Hannibal City Council took care of what one city official termed a âhousekeeping measureâ during its meeting at city hall on Tuesday night when it approved the issuance of a quit claim deed to Zhongding Sealing Parts (USA), which currently owns the former Buckhorn facility that is located in the cityâs West Side Industrial Park.
Addressing the council regarding the matter was Corey Mehaffy, executive director of the Hannibal Regional Economic Development Council.
âIt is my understanding that the city of Hannibal previously conveyed a 0.7 acre tract of land to the predecessor in title to Zhongding Sealing Parts (USA),â he said. âIt is also my understanding that when Zhongding Sealing Parts (USA) acquired the property years ago the tract in question was omitted from the description contained in the deed. Currently the tract still shows as vested in the city of Hannibal.â
