Welcome A Message From Our Executive Director

Welcome to the Union City Parking Authority website. The Parking Authority manages and maintains the on-street and parking facilities throughout the city. It is our mission to provide clean and safe parking for residents and visitors.

The Parking Authority staff is available to assist you with any questions or concerns you may have regarding parking in Union City. As a convenience to you, we have extended our hours on Monday until 6 PM and we are open on Saturdays until noon.

The Parking Authority is very active on social media and will often post changes to parking hours on Twitter. The UCPA Twitter account is also linked to our website so you can always receive the most up to date information available.

It is our hope to provide the best public service possible. If you have any suggestions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us.
