Union City posts council agenda including tax-exoneration resolution, county housing plan request and CDBG application
Summary
The Borough of Union City posted a Sept. 16 agenda that includes a resolution to exonerate taxes for 121 East High Street, a request for Erie County to complete a countywide comprehensive housing plan, proposed parking and zoning ordinance amendments, a CDBG application for Mun Lot #1, Halloween hours, and an executive session; no votes or debate are recorded in the agenda text.
The Borough of Union City posted an agenda for its Sept. 16, 2024 council meeting at First Global Methodist Church listing routine approvals, resolutions and ordinance items but recording no votes or discussion in the posted text.
The agenda schedules standard opening business — motions to approve the agenda, minutes from Aug. 27, 2024, the secretary’s report and paid and unpaid bills — and a hearing of visitors, according to the posted notice. Department reports by the mayor, the police chief, the street supervisor and the borough manager are also listed.
Among the substantive items, the agenda includes a motion to approve a resolution for tax exoneration for the property at 121 East High Street. The agenda does not provide the resolution’s text, the legal basis for the request, or any proposed financial impact; the item is listed as a motion pending consideration at the meeting.
The posted agenda also lists a motion asking Erie County to complete a new countywide comprehensive housing plan. The notice does not include details about the borough’s requested role in the plan, funding, or an implementation timeline.
Additional items include motions to pass amendments to the borough’s parking ordinance and its zoning ordinance; a motion to approve submitting an application to the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program for “Mun Lot #1”; and a motion to set Halloween hours from 6:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. on Oct. 31, 2024. The agenda gives no supporting reports, ordinance language, or estimated budgets for the CDBG application or ordinance changes.
The agenda closes with departmental liaison reports and an item noting an executive session to discuss real estate, personnel and contracts, with a posted notation that no action will be taken. A final line reads “TO BE TAKEN,” indicating additional items or actions may be addressed at the meeting; the posted agenda does not record outcomes or votes for any of the listed motions.
Because this document is a posted agenda rather than minutes or a transcript of the meeting, it does not record who will move or second any listed motions, any public comments, debate among council members, or formal vote results. Those outcomes, if any, would be recorded in meeting minutes or a future transcript.
