CNY Speaks Sets Up Forum for All Mayoral Candidates




By Jeff Landset
SYRACUSE, N.Y.-- A forum hosted by CNY Speaks that will feature all seven candidates for mayor has been set up for September 8th at the Hotel Syracuse. It's a free event that will focus on the revitalization of downtown Syracuse.

CNY Speaks has been using other forums and surveys to get the public's thoughts and own ideas about what they think about downtown. All of these ideas will be boiled down to one "Citizen's Agenda" which will be presented to the candidates by the public in September.

Greg Munno is one of CNY Speaks' organizers, and he was relieved when he was able to fulfill the promise he made: for the public to talk directly to the mayoral candidates.

"When I got those commitments and the room was free and there were no other forums conflicting with that, it was a tremendously good feeling, absolutely," Munno said.

"It will be a better feeling when it's over."
