Union City council approves schedule change, discusses sidewalk project, fire department demo assistance and police equipment grants
Summary
Council changed its meeting schedule to the first and third Mondays (Sept–Apr), updated the TA sidewalk project and Erie County trail kickoff, authorized Public Works to assist UCVFD with a shed demolition (no backhoe), and heard that the UC Community Foundation awarded funding for tasers and security cameras to the police department.
Union City Council agreed to shift its regular meeting schedule for September through April to the first and third Monday of each month at 6:30 p.m.; the next meeting dates were set for Aug. 27, 2024 and Sept. 16, 2024 (adjusted for Labor Day). The change was discussed and approved during the Borough Manager’s updates.
Borough Manager Cindy Wells said the TA set‑aside sidewalk project is still in progress and announced an Erie County Planning kickoff for park and trail improvements on French Creek on Sept. 13, 2024, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. The Union City Volunteer Fire Department requested use of a backhoe to demolish a shed at 10 Market Street; Public Works staff agreed to assist with demolition but will not provide the backhoe. Police Chief David Pernice reported department training attendance and grants: he said staff attended an active‑shooter training on July 24–25 and that the UC Community Foundation awarded funding for four tasers and additional security cameras to expand coverage on North Main Street.
