They are listed here not as final goals but as the beginning of discussion and action toward a Sustainable Syracuse.A Garden City urban agricultural corridor north-south along the Onondaga Creek corridor on the South Side and Valley, with Onondaga Creek is de-channelizes and restored as a meandering tributary creating riverfront properties and recreational opportunities.An eco-industrial corridor east-west along the old Erie Canal route for clean manufacturing that builds upon the regionâs existing strengths in processing agricultural products and environmental services.Redig the Erie Canal from the Inner Harbor through downtown and the city to the East to bring an east-west water corridor to be enjoyed across the city.Greenways for bikes and pedestrians networking the city, free from auto traffic.Pedestrian walkways in downtown and neighborhood business districts.Rebuild a light rail system for Syracuse, perhaps an overhead, on-demand Personal Rapid Transit on elevated rails above the streets and greenways.A central park for the city at the core of mixed-use development when the elevated portion of Interstate 81 is taken down.If/when Destiny USA becomes economically unviable, convert the area into a mixed-use, mixed-income community, with apartments for seniors and families, a community center, a grocery store, a mass transit link to downtown, and a publicly accessible waterfront on Onondaga Lake.If the Inner Harbor project as approved stalls, go back and do it the right way, as a mixed-use, mixed-income "new urbanism" community more along the lines of the Andres Duany proposal once displayed in a conceptual drawing at the Inner Harbor.These are ideas for discussion.

It should be available to all who choose it, regardless of class or status, so that public housing stops being segregated poor peopleâs housing.Public housing should be expanded not only by new construction, but also by the active purchasing of existing properties on the private market and by the city taking over properties from chronically delinquent landlords by eminent domain.Public housing projects should incorporate tenant democracy in the management of the project.As the Green Partyâs mayoral candidate in 2005, I presented the Greensâ vision for a Greater Syracuse can get ahead of the curve and prosper from leading the transition to the zero-carbon economy that the world needs to avert catastrophic climate change. Given the resistance of state government to fulfill its constitutional mandate to provide a âsound basic educationâ to all children, it is time to make that mandate more explicit and unavoidable with an Equal Education Amendment to the state constitution that requires the state to provide enough funding per student to every school district to meet the state's educational standards, including additional funding to help persistently low-achieving schools with services to help raise their academic outcomes.Voluntary enrollment of 3- and 4-year olds in high quality Pre-K should be available to all city children and integrated into the K-12 system.
But Segregation by class, or socioeconomic status, has While the city alone cannot overcome national policies that promote economic disparities, poverty, and segregation, there is much we can do to desegregate our community and uplift poor and working class people.Desegregation is the most powerful improvement we can make given the high degree of segregation and concentrated poverty in our metropolitan region.Syracuse area schools are also highly segregated by race, which correlates closely with class. In the longer run, it could help Syracuse realize its potential as the economic engine of the region and turn the city from a net recipient into a net contributor to its neighboring suburban and rural communities, which is what has happened with the City of Minneapolis.The city should fight vigorously for the state to fully implement the Foundation Aid Formula established by the Education Budget and Reform Act of 2007, which was enacted as a result of the decision of the New York State Court of Appeals in the Campaign for Fiscal Equity lawsuit that the state must provide every New York student a âsound basic education.â The Foundation Aid Formula went part way toward establishing a relationship between state aid, the needs of students, and a districtâs ability to raise revenue. Occupy Syracuse in 2011-12 was a popular assembly open to all, practicing direct democracy to formulate responses to the problems ordinary people faced in the wake of the 2008 economic meltdown. Well, the first we virtually sat down with, that is.
