Loading...
Summary
Syracuse City Council set a public hearing for a HUD Community Development Block Grant and held a bus shelter/BRT agenda item after the city engineer recommended outreach to the Century Club to coordinate projects.
Mary Robinson, Syracuse city engineer, told councilors the city should “reach out directly to the Century Club regarding both our project and, Centro's bus shelter and BRT project.” Her recommendation prompted councilors to hold the related agenda item so staff can coordinate with the community organization and regional transit provider.
The council set a public hearing for the Department of Housing and Urban Development Community Development Block Grant for April 20 at 1 p.m., the council president announced earlier in the meeting. Councilor Jones Rausser said item 24, the item tied to the local transit project, would be ready after the public hearing and was placed on hold pending the outreach.
Councilors discussed readiness for multiple consent and regular-agenda items across the meeting; several items were confirmed ready while a handful were held for follow-up. Councilor Majok and others listed items they would hold or proceed with later in the agenda.
Before adjourning, the council moved and seconded a motion to adjourn; members responded "Aye" and the meeting closed.
