***** UPDATE ***** The water main has been repaired.
NEWS ALERT – WATER MAIN BREAK
Union City, IN/Ohio – February 11, 2026
Public Works crews are currently repairing a water main break at the corner of Highland Avenue and Meadow Drive.
The break appears to be the result of the extreme cold temperatures our region recently experienced, combined with the rapid warm-up over the past few days. These temperature fluctuations can cause ground movement and stress on underground water lines.
What to Expect:
- Water pressure in the surrounding area is currently affected.
- Crews are actively working to restore normal service as quickly as possible.
- No boil order is expected at this time.
We appreciate your patience and understanding while repairs are being completed. Updates will be provided if conditions change.

The Union City Public Works Department continues extensive snow-removal efforts on both sides of our community following recent winter storms.
Crews are actively removing snow from the business districts to help ensure local businesses can remain open and accessible. In addition, alleyways and large snow accumulations at street corners are being addressed as equipment and conditions allow.
Looking ahead, the forecast indicates another storm system with possible snow accumulation in early February, along with very cold temperatures. With this in mind, the City is asking for the community’s help to improve safety and efficiency during ongoing snow operations.
How Residents Can Help
Streets with significant on-street parking have become very narrow due to snow buildup. As snow continues to accumulate, available space for plowing becomes increasingly limited.
When possible, removing parked vehicles from roadways allows Public Works crews to:
- Push snow farther back toward the curbs
- Widen streets for safer traffic flow
- Improve access for emergency and service vehicles
These small actions make a meaningful difference in keeping our streets safe for everyone.
Assistance for Elderly, Disabled, or Ill Residents
The City would also like to remind residents that Public Works crews are available to assist elderly, disabled, or ill community members with priority needs, including:
- Gaining safe access to homes
- Transportation assistance for doctor’s appointments
- Other urgent or essential travel needs
If you or someone you know may need assistance, please contact either Union City administration building, and staff will work to determine how best to help facilitate those needs.
The City of Union City appreciates the patience, cooperation, and community spirit shown during this challenging winter season. Working together helps ensure safety, accessibility, and continuity for residents and businesses alike.
