Union City councilors discuss zoning changes to allow above‑ground pools on adjoining vacant lots and parking ordinance updates
Summary
Council discussed proposed zoning ordinance changes to allow above‑ground pools on adjoining vacant lots and removable sheds up to 144 sq ft, and reviewed a proposed parking ordinance amendment to remove front‑end parking in Municipal Lot #2 with angled parking calculations to follow.
Council discussed several proposed land‑use ordinance changes, including previously approved changes for skill games of chance and new proposals to allow above‑ground pools on vacant adjoining lots and to permit removable sheds up to 144 square feet on gravel bases or skids without side‑yard setbacks (front yard setbacks would still apply).
Solicitor Tim Wachter was directed to draft suggested amendment language for council review. Separately, the council discussed amending the parking ordinance to remove front‑end parking in Municipal Lot #2; the Street Supervisor was asked to calculate how many spaces angled parking would provide so the Solicitor can present a proposed ordinance amendment for final review.
Councilors emphasized that any final ordinance changes will return to council for review and formal adoption; no ordinance was adopted at the meeting.
