Union City approves pension MMO, subdivision, $500 gazebo parcel purchase and new meeting schedule
Summary
Council approved the 2024 Minimum Municipal Obligation (non‑uniform $48,029; police $0), signed subdivision documents for West High Street parcels, approved purchase of a $500 parcel for a Municipal Lot gazebo project, and set regular meetings to the first and third Mondays at 6:30 p.m.
At its Aug. 13 meeting, Union City Borough Council approved several administrative and land‑use items, including pension obligations, a subdivision, a small property purchase for a gazebo, and a change to its meeting schedule.
Council approved the 2024 Minimum Municipal Obligation (MMO) figures: the required payment for the non‑uniform pension is $48,029 and $0 for the police pension. The motion to approve the MMO was made by Councilor Joyce and seconded by Councilor Kerns and carried unanimously. The minutes do not list further budgetary adjustments tied to these figures.
Council also approved and signed subdivision documents for 92 West High Street to combine a portion with 88 and 90 West High Street; Erie County Planning had approved the survey maps. The motion to approve the subdivision was made by Councilor Osborn and seconded by Councilor Kerns and carried unanimously.
Council approved a retroactive motion to purchase a small portion of property at 8 South Street for $500 to connect to Municipal Lot No. 3 for a gazebo project; the solicitor will complete the paperwork once a survey is finished (motion by Councilor Joyce; second Kerns). The minutes record the purchase amount ($500) but do not include deed language or a closing date.
Finally, council agreed to change regular meetings beginning in September through April 2025 to the first and third Monday of each month at 6:30 p.m. The next meeting was set for Aug. 27, 2024, and the following meeting for Sept. 16, 2024, because of Labor Day scheduling.
The public meeting adjourned at 7:06 p.m.; an executive session on personnel and a contract then occurred from 7:06–7:52 p.m. with no action taken publicly.
