Union City Borough Council agenda lists police hiring, code-enforcement appointment, broadband hearing and RT 97 engineering costs
Summary
The Union City Borough Council will meet July 9, 2024, at 6:00 p.m. to consider hiring a full-time police officer, a retroactive appointment for a code enforcement officer, possible amendments to zoning and parking ordinances, a broadband resolution tied to a public hearing, and engineering costs for the RT 97 project; most items lack detail in the posted agenda.
Union City Borough Council is scheduled to meet July 9, 2024, at 6:00 p.m. at First Global Methodist Church, 42 East High Street, to consider a range of personnel and infrastructure items outlined in the publicly posted agenda.
The agenda highlights two personnel actions at the top of the docket: a motion to hire a full-time police officer and a retroactive motion to appoint a code enforcement officer. The posted agenda lists those motions but provides no candidate names, movers or seconders, salary or benefit information, or vote tallies. The agenda also notes a presentation of a civil service certified list related to hiring processes; the list’s contents are not specified in the posting.
Council will also discuss possible amendments to the borough zoning ordinance and to the parking ordinance. The agenda gives no detail about the proposed zoning changes, the parcels or districts affected, enforcement changes to parking rules, or draft ordinance language. Because the posting lacks specifics, any substantive impacts, timelines, or potential appeals are not specified.
Infrastructure and broadband are on the agenda. Council will review an engineering agreement and costs connected to the RT 97 project; the posted item does not include a contractor name, dollar amounts, or funding sources. Separately, the agenda lists consideration of a resolution on broadband and the scheduling of a public hearing; the draft resolution language and the date for a hearing are not included in the agenda posting.
Other routine items include approval of the agenda, a motion to approve minutes, reports from the Mayor, the Police Chief, the Street Supervisor and the Borough Manager, administration and liaison reports, and adjournment. The agenda closes with an executive session to discuss personnel, explicitly noting that no action will be taken in that session.
Because the posted agenda contains mainly item headings without substantive detail, readers and interested parties looking for specifics — such as the names of candidates for hire, contract amounts for the RT 97 engineering agreement, or the text of the broadband resolution — should consult the meeting packet or contact borough staff prior to the meeting. The council meeting is scheduled to begin at 6:00 p.m. on July 9, 2024, at the location listed on the public notice.
