Union City posts Sept. 16 agenda with resolutions on tax exoneration, housing plan, ordinance changes and a CDBG application
Summary
The posted agenda for Union City Borough’s Sept. 16 meeting lists motions including a tax-exoneration resolution for 121 East High Street, a resolution to involve Erie County in a countywide housing plan, Halloween hours, parking and zoning ordinance amendments, and a CDBG application for "MUN LOT #1." Vote details are not specified in the posted agenda.
Union City Borough posted an agenda for its Sept. 16, 2024 council meeting at First Global Methodist Church, 42 East High Street, listing several motions the council is scheduled to consider.
The agenda includes a motion to approve a resolution for tax exoneration for the property at 121 East High Street. The posted notice does not specify the amount of taxes at issue, the legal basis, or the budgetary impact; those details are listed as not specified in the agenda.
The council is also scheduled to consider a resolution asking Erie County to complete a new countywide comprehensive housing plan. The posted agenda does not define the borough’s role, any requested funding, or a timeline for the proposed county-led plan.
Other items on the agenda include a motion to approve Halloween hours from 6:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. on Oct. 31, 2024; a motion to pass an amendment to the borough’s parking ordinance; and a motion to pass a zoning ordinance amendment. The posted agenda contains no text of the ordinance changes, so the scope and regulatory effects of those amendments are not specified.
The agenda further lists a motion to approve submitting an application to the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program for a project described as "MUN LOT #1." The agenda does not include a project description, estimated budget, grant category, or whether matching funds would be required.
Routine procedural items appear as well: motions to approve the meeting agenda, to approve minutes from the Aug. 27 meeting, the secretary’s report, and approval of paid and unpaid bills. The agenda also schedules reviews of August 2024 reports for code enforcement and zoning and slots for reports from the mayor, the police chief, the street supervisor and the borough manager.
The posted agenda includes a "Hearing of the Visitors" (public comment) period but does not identify any speakers or topics in advance. It closes with administration and department liaison reports, adjournment and an executive session to discuss real estate, personnel and contracts "with no action to be taken," as stated on the agenda.
The posted agenda does not record movers or seconders for any motions, nor does it include vote tallies or indicate whether ordinance items are on first reading or for final passage. Those procedural details would appear in the meeting minutes or in roll-call votes taken at the meeting itself.
