The City of Union City feels that it is important for all of the youth in our community to have the opportunity to experience the various recreational programs that are offered by the Leisure Services Department. The S.O.K. Scholarship Fund offers a limited number of special scholarships for Union City youth 18 years and under who wish to experience a Leisure Services program but are unable to, due to financial hardship. Scholarships provide 50-75 % of the registration fee, up to a maximum of $200. Scholarships are limited to one program per youth, per year as long as funds are available and families meet the financial qualifications. For more information and a scholarship application, please call the Holly Community Center at 675-5488 or the Kennedy Community Center at 675-5357. We also would like to encourage the members of our community to help support the S.O.K. Scholarship program by making contributions with their Leisure Services registrations. Donations can be added on the Leisure Services registration form. Every dollar counts and is appreciated.

Congratulations to this summer’s Leaders in Training (L.I.T.). This program is designed to train youths to be successful recreation leaders. The L.I.T.s were assigned to a Union City Leisure Services Camp or Park and Playground site. They went through a one week intensive training and then worked closely with leaders to put their training to use in the supervision and leading of activities with campers. Their hard work and dedication made a huge impact in the lives of the campers, leaders and with each other. The growth they showed this summer has far exceeded all expectations by leaps and bounds. Congratulations and thank you to this summer’s Leaders in Training.

What Happens When You Call 911? When a 911 call comes into the Union City Police Department (UCPD), the dispatcher answering the phone will ask questions that include who, what, where, when, location last seen, injuries, descriptions, and directions of flight. The dispatchers are also interested if there is alcohol, drugs, and weapons involved in the emergency. While the initial dispatcher is asking these questions, there is another dispatcher who is sending police officers to the emergency. These questions help UCPD render assistance and apprehend criminals. The responding police officers receive updates, based on your answers, as they drive to the location.

UCPD Dispatchers Answering a Call 911 Dispatchers are a vital link to emergency response

The 911 dispatchers are a vital link to the proper response to an emergency. They work as a team to get the job done. For emergencies, call 911. For nonemergencies, please contact UCPD at (510) 4711365.

Chaplin's Sports Bistro at 2900 Kohoutek Way, is not your common sports bar. Named after Charlie Chaplin and his influence in the Tri-City area, Chaplin’s is stylish, fun with ample seating and nine largescreen TVs to cheer on your favorite sports team. Open since January 2012, Chaplin’s offers unique dining choices including lumpia and fish tacos plus your favorite beer on tap and other beverages.

Chaplin’s is a place where everyone can feel comfortable plus enjoy delicious food and beverages. Union City is a good fit for our business.”

October 27, 2012 marks “Make a Difference Day,” a national event dedicated to volunteer service. Created in 1992, it has become the single largest community service effort in the United States, rallying about three million Americans last year. The City of Union City has participated in Make a Difference Day since 1995, bringing City staff and the community together to make improvements such as planting trees, removing graffiti, and installing playground equipment. Last year, Union City held four events: a clean water environmental project, landscape improvements, a painting project and garden care. Visit the City of Union City’s website, UnionCity.org to learn how you can volunteer. City, including bike routes, trails, city boundaries, and schools.

In an age where information is available to citizens at all hours of the day, cities have worked hard to provide technology to allow people to access data about their own communities. Union City is at the forefront of such efforts, having in 2010 adopted Digital Map Products (DMP)’s CityGISTM and CommunityViewTM software products to enable the efficient transfer of geographic information to anyone. For the public, Community View, an interactive mapping website, was launched to provide details on properties, City services, and local features. Additionally, it provides a hands-on view of the entire

CityGISTM is a cost-effective solution for the City to share information across internal departments, a notably difficult task, since it typically requires the hiring of additional technical staff and a considerable financial investment. With the help of DMP’s software-as-aservice solution, the City of Union City avoided these issues, and the results are promising — an increased awareness of the community and easier access and sharing of useful information.
