It’s officially concert season in Central New York: Hozier kicked things off the Empower FCU Amphitheater at Lakeview with a sold-out show on Tuesday night. The Irish singer-songwriter, who was visiting Syracuse for the first time, played his biggest hits, including “Too Sweet” and “Take Me to Church.” He also briefly left the stage to perform an acoustic version of “Cherry Wine” in the center of the pavilion, surrounded by the light of thousands of cell phones swaying along to the music. See photos and the set list, plus our full concert review. (N. Scott Trimble photo)
Congratulations & Thanks
I am writing this letter to congratulate Jennifer Mainville on her reelection to the Fulton Board of Education. Our community is fortunate to have representation on the board that is focused on prioritizing what is best for kids first. Having served with Mrs. Mainville previously on the Fulton School Board, we are also fortunate to have an individual with integrity providing oversight to our school district. Additionally, I would like to thank the voters, who supported my candidacy in this year’s election cycle. While the voter turn-out was low, I appreciate those who took the time to vote.

Decision on affordable housing was ‘about us without us’ (Your Letters)
Regarding your editorial, ”Syracuse board sends wrong message on affordable housing” (May 19, 2024):. The most frustrating part of this process is now even the newer Common Council continues to do business as usual. Nothing is brought before the constituents, which is why these people sit in those seats! It is sad that we must learn about any decisions being made from the media.

Syracuse, N.Y. — Syracuse Common Council has voted unanimously to continue using a gunshot detection system on the city’s North Side for the next three years.
