The Union City Borough Council voted unanimously June 25 on a slate of routine motions ranging from tax-exoneration resolutions to funding authorizations for road work and grant applications.
Councilor Joyce moved and Councilor Steadman seconded approval of the agenda; subsequent procedural motions to approve the May 28 minutes, accept the secretary’s report and approve bills were carried without objection.
