Union City Borough Council on Aug. 27 approved seven recommended Renaissance Grant applications totaling $23,600 in requested funding and representing $60,606 in project costs, and passed a resolution accepting the audit report for the Erie Area Council of Governments (EACOG).
Borough Manager Cindy Wells said the Renaissance Grant fund has $90,547.35 available. Based on the manager’s recommendation that the seven applications would help fight blight, Councilor Steadman moved to approve the applications totaling $23,600 for the 2024–25 grant period and Councilor Osborn seconded; the motion carried unanimously.
Separately, Council considered the EACOG audit, which COG members had reviewed and accepted. Councilor Osborn moved and Councilor Steadman seconded a resolution accepting the audit report as presented; that motion also carried unanimously.
Council did not identify specific recipients by name during the meeting nor specify how the $23,600 would be allocated among the seven projects; the manager presented totals and the recommendation to approve based on blight‑mitigation benefits.
