City Of Union City

5047 Union Street
770-964-2288

Our community has grown and progressed for nearly 100 years, and through that time we have taken a steady path that emphasizes a great quality of life.

Union City has nearly 200 employees who take great pride in providing exceptional service to our residents. By carefully balancing growth and maintaining our existing infrastructure, we have built a very stable, secure place to call home.

As "The Progressive City," we also bring state-of-the-art planning and practices to our community. We are improving a large percentage of our roads and thoroughfares by repaving and upgrading them. We're building a new, state-of-the-art fire station that will be the most environmentally friendly in Georgia. And we have an exciting, mixed-use development planned that will help Union City stay on the cutting edge in terms of planned growth, sustainability, and quality of life.
