Union City Borough’s posted agenda for July 23 includes a motion to adopt a resolution authorizing the borough to apply for designation as a Broadband Ready Community and to appoint Erie Area Council of Governments (Erie Area COG) as the municipal broadband champion. The agenda also lists a public meeting at 5:45 p.m. specifically regarding broadband.

The posted motion does not include the resolution text, any commitments tied to the designation, or details about project funding or timelines. The appointment of Erie Area COG would designate a regional planning organization to serve as the borough’s point of contact for the application process, according to the agenda language.

Because the posting is an agenda, the council must formally move and vote on the resolution and any appointment during the July 23 meeting to enact them. The agenda does not indicate whether the public meeting at 5:45 p.m. will produce a formal recommendation.
