Due to overwhelming opposition by residents of the Fife neighborhood the City of Union City has amended its Annexation Map to remove approximately 220 acres of property centered at the intersection of Spence Road and Fayetteville Road. The Annexation Map illustrates areas of close proximity to Union City’s existing limits that have been considered for annexation in response to recently passed Senate Bill 552 which gives existing municipalities until October 30th to annex property prior to setting the potential boundary for incorporation of South Fulton.

The City held four informational sessions in June to answer questions of potential residents. Residents of Fife attended all four meetings opposing Union City’s plan to include their area into it’s city limits. According to Mayor Ralph Moore for Union City, the message has always been simple. “It’s your future. It’s your choice – the people of Fife have made their choice and we have heard them”.

Union City is continuing to reach out to prospective residents through a direct mail campaign and will hold informational sessions on June 29th from 6 to 8 pm at City Hall and July 6th from 6 to 8 pm at Christian City Welcome Center. For more information on Union City or how to get annexed into Union City, please contact the City Administrator’s Office at Union City’s City Hall at 770-964-2288, or visit HYPERLINK "http://www.unioncityga.org" www.unioncityga.org.
