Union City Borough posts July 9 agenda with police hiring motion, code enforcement appointment and broadband hearing

Union City Borough posted its agenda for a July 9, 2024 council meeting, scheduled for 6:00 p.m. at First Global Methodist Church, 42 East High Street. The posted agenda lists routine opening business and several substantive items the council plans to consider, though the posting does not include motions' outcomes or operational details.

The agenda lists a motion to hire a full-time police officer and a separate retroactive motion to appoint a code enforcement officer. Neither the agenda posting nor the listed items identify candidate names, mover and seconder information, or expected vote tallies. The agenda also includes a presentation of a civil service certified list, which typically contains candidates eligible for appointment.

Council members will also discuss proposed amendments to the borough zoning ordinance and the parking ordinance; the posted agenda does not specify which provisions would change. A separate agenda item covers an engineering agreement and costs for the RT 97 project; the posting does not state contract amounts, firms under consideration, or proposed funding sources.

The borough will consider a resolution related to broadband and is scheduled to hold a public hearing on that resolution. The posted agenda provides no text of the resolution or a scope for the hearing. Other listed items include discussion of additional help for public works and routine administration and department liaison reports.

The meeting notice closes with an executive session to discuss personnel with no action to be taken, per the posted agenda. Because the document provided here is the meeting agenda, not minutes or a transcript of debate or votes, this article reports only items listed for consideration; outcomes of motions and any further details will depend on the council’s discussion at the scheduled meeting.
