Union City Borough posts June 25 agenda with Willow Street bridge grant and multiple paving motions
Summary
Union City Borough posted an agenda for its June 25 council meeting that includes resolutions to seek tax exoneration for two properties, apply for a multimodal grant for the Willow Street Bridge, allocate Liquid Fuels and county aid for 2024 paving and seal-coat projects, and consider parking and zoning ordinance amendments.
Union City Borough posted an agenda for its June 25, 2024 council meeting at First Global Methodist Church, 42 East High Street, with the session scheduled to start at 6 p.m.
The meeting notice lists routine business — approval of the agenda, minutes from the May 28 meeting, the secretary’s report and bills — followed by departmental reports from Code Enforcement and Zoning and reports or recommendations from the mayor, the police chief, the street supervisor and the borough manager.
Why it matters: The agenda includes several items that could affect borough infrastructure and finances if approved. Notably, the council plans to consider a resolution to apply for a multimodal transportation grant for the Willow Street Bridge and motions to direct Liquid Fuels funds to the borough’s 2024 paving project and to accept county aid for a 2024 seal-coat project. The posted agenda does not list dollar amounts, grant-match requirements or contractor details for these items.
Other actions on the posted agenda include a motion to approve resolutions seeking tax exoneration for properties at 11 Maple and 48 Atlantic, a motion to authorize reuse of roadway millings, and a motion to approve Renaissance grant applications. The council is also slated to consider transferring capital equipment funds into a PLGIT Prime account and to list old playground equipment for sale on MuniciBid; none of these items include amounts or specific project descriptions on the posted agenda.
The agenda also schedules discussions of an amended parking ordinance and a zoning ordinance amendment; the posted notice does not attach draft ordinance language or explain the proposed changes. A public "Hearing of the Visitors" is listed, but the agenda does not pre-identify speakers or subjects for public comment.
The meeting is set to conclude with administration and department liaison reports and an executive session to discuss personnel and contracts, with the agenda explicitly stating no action will be taken during that executive session.
Next steps: The council will consider each motion and resolution at the June 25 meeting; the posted agenda does not record outcomes, votes, dollar amounts or timelines. Interested residents should attend the meeting in person at 6 p.m. at First Global Methodist Church if they wish to comment or follow decisions.
