Union City Borough will hold a public hearing on Monday, Sept. 16, 2024, at 6:00 p.m. at the First Global Methodist Church, 42 East High Street, to consider a proposed amendment to Zoning Ordinance #1118 that would define and regulate redemption games, also described in the notice as "games of skill." A staff member for Union City Borough said the purpose is "to provide information and receive public comment on the proposed amendment to zoning ordinance #1118."
The amendment notice says the changes would add definitions and regulation of permitted-use zones for redemption games and add a new Section 701.04 to provide for the use of accessory structures on adjoining lots. The posting also includes a repealer, a severability clause and an effective date but does not specify the precise regulatory text or which zoning districts would be affected.
The hearing notice directs that visitors will be heard for public comment; no vote or final action is listed in the posted agenda. The Borough posted the time, date and location of the hearing but did not include further details about proposed zoning text, permit requirements, or enforcement mechanisms in the public notice.
