Union City Borough Council posts July 9 agenda including police hire, zoning discussion and broadband hearing plan

The Union City Borough Council posted an agenda for its July 9, 2024 meeting at 6:00 p.m. at First Global Methodist Church, 42 East High Street, that lists several planned items for consideration, including a motion to hire a full‑time police officer and discussion of amending the zoning ordinance.

The posted agenda also includes a presentation of a Civil Service certified list and a retroactive motion to appoint a code enforcement officer. It lists a council discussion about adding additional help for public works, and an item to consider a resolution related to broadband followed by a public hearing; the agenda does not include the text of the proposed resolution or a hearing date.

Other items on the agenda are a discussion on amending the parking ordinance, consideration of an engineering agreement and costs for the RT 97 project, routine administration and department liaison reports, and an executive session to discuss personnel with no action to be taken. The agenda identifies routine reports from the mayor, the police chief, the street supervisor and the borough manager but does not provide details or supporting documents in the posted text.

The agenda lists motions but provides no mover/second, vote tallies, candidate names, contract amounts, funding sources, or other implementation details. Where the agenda raises personnel or contract‑related items, the posted text marks required follow‑up (for example, the public hearing for broadband) but leaves timing, participants and financial specifics "not specified" in the notice.

The council’s posted agenda is primarily procedural and informational; further specifics, including any formal votes or appointment confirmations, would be expected at the meeting itself or in later minutes.
