Draft Zoning Ordinance
Welcome to the Draft Ordinance page for the Union City Planning and Zoning Ordinance Review and Update. This page will serve as the central location for draft zoning materials and supporting documents as they are developed and released for public review.
At this stage of the process, draft zoning ordinance documents are still being prepared. The City is currently reviewing existing regulations, gathering public input, and conducting technical analysis to inform the update. The following documents provide important background and context for the zoning ordinance update. These materials help guide how zoning regulations are evaluated and updated.
The zoning map shows the zoning district assigned to each property in Union City. A property’s zoning district determines what types of uses are allowed and what development standards apply.
The Union City 2025 Comprehensive Plan outlines the City’s long term vision for growth, development, and community priorities. It addresses land use, housing, transportation, economic development, and quality of life considerations. The zoning ordinance update is an important implementation tool of the Comprehensive Plan and helps translate adopted goals and policies into clear development standards.
The R3 Master Plan, Reclaim Renew Reimagine - provides a framework for future growth and redevelopment in Union City, with a focus on sustainability, connectivity, and community enhancement. The plan identifies strategies and priority areas that inform zoning regulations and development standards. The zoning ordinance update aligns zoning regulations with the vision and principles outlined in the R3 Master Plan.
