Summary

Union City Council discussed proposed zoning amendments addressing small games of chance and allowing pools in vacant adjoining lots and decided to return the matter to a future meeting when the solicitor is present for legal review.

Councilors discussed proposed amendments to the borough zoning ordinance related to small games of chance and permitting pools in vacant adjoining lots but did not act at the June 25 meeting.

The council agreed to postpone substantive consideration until the solicitor could attend and provide legal guidance. Council President (Councilor Cross) indicated the item would be taken up at the next meeting when the solicitor is present.

Why it matters: Zoning ordinance changes can alter what uses are permitted in neighborhoods and affect property owners; solicitor review is a standard step to ensure proposed language aligns with legal requirements and borough code.
