  • Questionnaire for the Next Mayor of the City of Syracuse
    Questionnaire for the Next Mayor of the City of Syracuse This survey was created by a group of community organizations that organized candidate forums for candidates in local elections earlier this summer. We believe that democracy requires an informed electorate and candidates who are accountable to those who elect them. The primary organizations involved are the Alliance of Communities Transforming Syracuse (ACTS), CNY Solidarity Coalition, Greater Syracuse HOPE, National Action Network (NAN), Parents for Public Schools, Syracuse Community Connections and the Urban Jobs Taskforce. We have consulted with a variety of other organizations and individuals in creating this questionnaire. The survey contains over 100 questions grouped into eight categories. It was sent to all the mayoral candidates in late July and we followed up after the initial deadline to seek full participation. This version includes only those candidates who will be on the general election bal- lot on November 7. Unfortunately, Republican Laura Lavine did not return the survey. While we would prefer to have her responses on these important issues facing our city included in the survey, we believe her choice not to participate provides important information to the people who will choose the next Mayor. 1 of 10 Questionnaire for the Next Mayor August 2017 Juanita Perez Howie Hawkins Ben Walsh Williams Question Yes No Comment Yes No Comment Yes No Comment Building Democracy/Electoral Reform 1. Oppose the consolidation of the Syracuse City government as part of a new municipal government as proposed by the Consensus Report. Yes X Yes Yes X 2. Hold regularly-scheduled, well-publicized community meetings in the city’s various neighborhoods to hear feedback from residents.

    Central New York Regional Economic Development Council 2018 Annual Report Assessment I. Performance a. Impact on job creation and retention Strengths • From 2011 – 2017, CFA projects (including Priority Projects) were projected to retain over 21,000 jobs and create nearly 4,000 jobs. • From 2016 to 2017, the veteran unemployment rate decreased from 8 percent to 2.9 percent, as compared to a statewide rate of 5.8 percent in 2017. The overall regional unemployment rate in 2017 was 5.2 percent, as compared to a statewide unemployment rate of 4.7 percent. • From 2016 – 2017, the Food and Agriculture cluster had an 11 percent increase in average annual employment (AAE), representing about 400 jobs. • In 2016, CNY had a higher percentage of the 16-24-year-old demographic employed than the NYS rate.

  • Chief of Police
    Chief of Police City of Syracuse, NY An Incredible Opportunity A national search is underway to attract highly-qualified candidates to lead the Syracuse Police Department (SPD). In this special and challenging time in American law enforcement history, this is a rare and incredible opportunity to lead the 5th largest law enforcement agency in the State of New York. Syracuse is a city eager to build on the positive changes brought forth by longtime Chief of Police, Frank Fowler, who distinguished himself during his long career and nearly decade long tenure as the chief. With strong civic and community participation, Syracuse desires a police- community relationship that engenders trust, advances community policing, and increases public safety. Syracuse seeks a Chief of Police who is passionate about that mission and enthusiastic about this opportunity. Top candidates will have a career history that demonstrates outstanding leadership skills and the ability to embrace and celebrate culture, diversity, community values, and all that the City of Syracuse represents. Importantly, this highly accomplished individual will also be well-prepared to address an array of operational and policy issues including gun violence, crime reduction, body worn camera implementation, community engagement, police accountability and transparency. The new chief will assume responsibility for bringing a collaborative and strategic focus to a community that is collectively focused on community safety and the police- community relationship. The Governing Structure Syracuse operates in a strong mayor form of governance. The Mayor - the chief executive of the city - is elected by the voters and is eligible for two four-year terms. The Mayor also sets strategy and direction for the City, and works with the Common Council, on a variety of legislative matters.
