Union City Borough posts July 9 agenda to consider police hire, ordinance changes and RT 97 engineering costs
Summary
The Union City Borough Council’s July 9 agenda lists consideration of hiring a full-time police officer, a retroactive appointment for a code enforcement officer, proposed zoning and parking ordinance amendments, discussion of RT 97 engineering costs, and a broadband resolution/public hearing.
The Union City Borough Council is scheduled to meet at 6:00 p.m. on July 9, 2024, at First Global Methodist Church, 42 East High Street, to consider a range of personnel and ordinance items and to receive routine departmental reports.
The posted agenda highlights several items that could affect municipal services and future contracts. Council members are slated to consider a motion to hire a full-time police officer following presentation of a civil service certified list, and a separate retroactive motion to appoint a code enforcement officer. The posting provides no candidate names, mover/second information or vote tallies; those details will be determined at the meeting.
Also on the agenda are proposed amendments to the borough zoning ordinance and the parking ordinance. The agenda lists these as discussions; the posted notice does not include draft ordinance language, section references, or proposed effective dates.
Infrastructure and contracting matters include a discussion of an engineering agreement and associated costs for the Route 97 (RT 97) project. The agenda item does not identify a vendor, contract amount or funding source in the posted notice.
The council also plans to discuss a resolution on broadband and whether to schedule a public hearing on that resolution. The posted agenda does not specify the resolution’s terms, funding, or target service area.
Routine items include a motion to approve minutes, the Hearing of the Visitors (public comment), and reports from the mayor, the police chief, the street supervisor and the borough manager. The agenda concludes with administration and department liaison reports, adjournment, and an executive session to discuss personnel with no action expected to be taken in closed session.
The agenda is a meeting notice rather than minutes of actions taken; the outcomes of the listed motions and discussions will be recorded during or after the July 9 meeting.
