The Borough of Union City posted notice that it will hold a public hearing at 6:00 p.m. Monday, Sept. 16, 2024, at First Global Methodist Church, 42 East High Street, to receive public comment on a proposed amendment to Zoning Ordinance #1118. "The purpose of the hearing is to provide information and receive public comment on the proposed amendment to Zoning Ordinance #1118," the clerk for the Borough of Union City said in the posted agenda.

The posted text says the amendment would "provide for definitions and regulation of permitted use zones for redemption games, otherwise known as games of skill; adding Section 701.04 to provide for use of accessory structures on adjoining lots; and provide a repealer, severability and effective date." The agenda lists a formal "hearing of the visitors" for public comment and closes with an adjournment entry. No additional materials or staff reports are included in the posted notice.

The hearing is an opportunity for residents and business owners to comment on the proposed zoning changes before any formal consideration or vote by the borough. The posted agenda does not record any motions or decisions; it only schedules the hearing and lists the amendment language to be considered.
