FACT SHEET Sewer Separation Project at CSO Area 061 Project Description: The CSO 061 Area includes 1.6 acres within a residential neighborhood in the south side of the City of Syracuse. During large rain events, the combined sewage from the Crehange Street combined sewer can overflow to an existing 12-inch outfall to Onondaga Creek (CSO-061).

The proposed design included construction of a new sanitary sewer along Crehange Street, connecting to the existing combined sewer on Kirk Park Drive. The combined sewer along Crehange Street was repurposed for storm water only, which will convey tributary stormwater from the Crehange Street properties, as well as two catch basins that are tributary to the Hatch Street combined sewer.

The CSO-061 outfall was disconnected from the combined sewer and was repurposed and utilized for stormwater discharge only. The Hatch Street combined sewer and the Kirk Park Drive combined sewer will have reduced stormwater contributions.

Green Components: The County evaluated the use of Green Infrastructure for mitigating overflows at CSO-061. It was concluded that complete separation would be more effective than green infrastructure at this location, due to the short conveyance distance, proximity to Onondaga Creek and the desire to implement a total closure of CSO-061.

Project Update: The project began Monday November 7, 2016 and was completed December 5, 2016.

GREEN PROJECTS UPDATE

Green Project Update The fourth quarter of 2016 was another productive period in the Save the Rain program.

The Lynch Avenue infiltration trench project was completed during the fourth quarter of 2016 utilizing. The project included a one block infiltration trench on Lynch Avenue between Russell Place and Fletcher Avenue to manage runoff within CSO 052. The total stormwater capture for this project is approximately 400,000 gallons annually.

Construction of the Green Separation in CSO 052 project continued during the quarter. The project consists of a new stormwater management facility on the city-owned property (the former location of Garzone’s Restaurant) to manage ponding on-site as well as additional stormwater runoff from Cornell and South avenues. Work on the stormwater management facility began in August and continued into November. The work is suspended for winter, but will resume in Spring 2017. The separate storm sewer and infiltration facility on Mitchell Avenue was constructed during the quarter and included stormwater capture between South Avenue and Armstrong Place. The project provides the dual benefit of managing stormwater runoff in CSO 052 and reducing localized flooding episodes in the neighborhood. The western detention basin on the former Garzone’s Restaurant property was constructed during the third quarter and stabilized for the winter as well. In the spring of 2017, the eastern basin will be constructed and the facility will be put fully online receiving runoff from the various drainage areas mentioned. The Save the Rain program continues to stay in close contact with the local neighborhood and has heard positive feedback from many residents to date.

Also during the fourth quarter, construction of the State Street Green Corridor project was completed utilizing the County’s Green Structures Term Contractors (DE Tarolli, Inc. and J&J Landscaping, LLC). The project was funded in part by a Water Quality Improvement Project grant from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC). The project consisted of several green infrastructure practices along State Street in three different segments: Taylor Street to Adams Street, Fayette Street to Water Street, and James Street to Salina Street. Aside from minor punch list items to be completed in the spring, the project was completed and operational in December 2016.

The design of the CSO 060/077 green street candidate projects was advanced during the fourth quarter. These candidates include projects on McKinley Avenue, East Colvin Street, Roney Lane, Comstock Avenue, Lancaster Avenue, and Ackerman Avenue. The projects on Lancaster Avenue, Ackerman Avenue, and McKinley Avenue are expected to proceed to construction during the spring and summer of 2017. The projects on Comstock Avenue, East Colvin Street, and Roney Lane will proceed to final detailed design, public outreach and construction in 2017. The County’s Save the Rain team has been coordinating the construction schedule with local community groups to inform the community of these projects and receive feedback during the design process. Additional public outreach will continue as these projects advance to construction.

Progress continues through the efforts of the Green Planning Committee (GPC). Design of the CSO 067 candidates (McKinley Park, Vacant Lot at 621 West Newell, and Vale Street at Newell Street) proceeded to the 90% design phase in the fourth quarter. The GPC also finalized the development of additional project candidates in CSO 052, and developed a list of preliminary candidate projects in the Harbor Brook CSOs (005, 006, 006A, 009, 010, 011, 014, 015, 017, 078) for implementation by 2018. Discussions between the GPC, County, and City on a green infrastructure approach for CSO 029 continued during the fourth quarter, with the expectation of the development of a plan of action in spring 2017.

Project Description: The McKinley Park Project is one of many projects being accomplished through the collaborative efforts of Onondaga County and the City of Syracuse Parks Department. As a neighborhood park, McKinley Park has served the recreational needs of the community since 1920. The primary goal of the project is to reduce the volume of stormwater that flows into the combined sewer system along West Newell Street, West Calthrop Avenue, and West Pleasant Avenue – all within the CSO 067 area. The County intends to implement various green infrastructure technologies, including bioretention and porous pavement with an underground infiltration system. This infrastructure will capture runoff from the park and surrounding areas, totaling 51,000 square feet of drainage area. Stormwater will slowly evaporate and/or infiltrate underground, eliminating excess drainage to the sewer system and improving the overall stormwater management and drainage in this area.

A secondary goal of this project is to enhance McKinley Park by increasing green space and improving the basketball court. An existing paved area formerly used as a tennis court will be completely removed and replaced with open green space. Additionally, the current half-court basketball facility will be removed and replaced with a full court porous pavement basketball court in partnership with the Jim and Juli Boeheim Foundation’s Courts4Kids Program. This will be the fifth porous pavement basketball court project constructed in partnership with the Foundation since 2011. When complete, it is estimated that 930,000 gallons of stormwater runoff per year will be removed from the CSO 067 combined sewer.

3,781,200 gal/yr 2016 $1,840,000 Marcellus Construction Co., Inc.

Project Description: The Green Separation of CSO 052 Project will be accomplished through the collaborative efforts of Onondaga County and the City of Syracuse. Historically, the area around the proposed detention basin has been prone to severe flooding throughout the year. This is due, in part, to years of illegal dumping that impacted the natural surface and groundwater flow patterns. The County and the City have partnered to help limit this problem through the installation of a slow-release stormwater detention basin and infiltration. Additionally, the County undertook a storm sewer separation project on Mitchell Avenue to separate stormwater from the existing combined sewer system.

The primary goal of the project is to reduce the volume of stormwater that flows into the combined sewer system along South, Cornell, and Mitchell Avenues, all within CSO 052. The secondary goal is to reduce the level of flooding experienced in this area. The new detention/slow release facility will be constructed on property owned by the City of Syracuse and will capture runoff from South and Cornell Avenues as well as from the City’s property, totaling 890,400 square feet of drainage area. The facility will have the capacity to store 1,155,700 gallons of stormwater during rain events. Stormwater will be slowly released to the Armstrong Place combined sewer system over time. It is expected that the detention/slow release facility will improve the stormwater management and drainage in this area and lessen the effects of flooding onto residential properties that adjoin the City-owned property.

Additionally, runoff from 140,700 square feet of drainage area along Mitchell Avenue is collected in a new storm sewer system and directed to an underground stormwater infiltration basin with a runoff reduction volume of approximately 1,241,900 gallons per year. Construction of the project began in August 2016 and the Mitchell Avenue storm sewer system was complete in September 2016. The western detention/slow release basin off of South Ave. was also constructed in 2016, with expected completion of the eastern basin and project the project as a whole in 2017.

FACT SHEET Vacant Lot at 621 W. Newell Street Project Description: This project will be one of two Save the Rain projects on West Newell Street. Previously, the 621 West Newell Street vacant lot was taken into ownership by the City of Syracuse in the year 2000. The lot has remained vacant since then and the site contains soil ideal for infiltration practices. A unique facet of this project is that the site is located approximately three hundred feet from Onondaga Creek and just down the road (approximately three and a half blocks) from McKinley Park, where another Save the Rain project will be constructed.

The green infrastructure technology included with this project is a bioretention basin. The bioretention basin is located between the sidewalk and existing tree line on the vacant lot parcel and is designed to capture stormwater from West Newell Street via existing drainage structures. The drainage area extends on West Newell Street from Vale Street to Baldwin Avenue. The bioretention area will be planted with native vegetation and it will serve as a form of community improvement.

In total, the bioretention basin will capture approximately 160,000 gallons of stormwater annually. Upon completion of the project in 2017, all runoff from this 1one block stretch of road on West Newell Street will be drained into a green infrastructure practice, instead of the combined sewer system.

Quagga Mussels

Zebra Mussels

Dreissenid mussels ( zebra mussel and quagga mussel) in Onondaga Lake Dreissenid mussels, both zebra mussel (Dreissena polymorpha) and quagga mussel (Dreissena rostriformis bugensis), are invasive ecosystem engineers with large effects on the ecosystem through filtering and alteration of the benthic habitat (Higgins and VanderZanden 2010). Both species arrived to North America in the mid-1980s (Carlton 2008) and were found in Onondaga Lake in 1992, around 5 years after they were documented as present in Lake Erie (Mills et al. 1993). Dreissenid mussels remained rare in Onondaga Lake up to and including 1997 when reported densities were < 1 m-2 (Spada et al. 2002). Spada et al. (2002) reported a large increase in zebra mussels in 1999 with densities in year 2000 between 1,200 and 22,200 m-2 in four areas of the lake. This increase was attributed to improvement in the Metro sewage plants decreasing the ammonia levels in the lake. The lake was surveyed for mussels again in 2002 by OCDWEP and Stantec Consulting Services (OCDWEP 2003), and each year from 2005 to 2015 by OCDWEP. In Onondaga Lake zebra mussels increased in abundance first and dominated collections in 2005-2007. quagga mussels increased from 2006 to 2008 and largely replaced zebra mussels in water 3 - 6 m (>90% of the biomass) by 2009. However, zebra mussels remained co-dominant with quagga mussels in shallower water. The proportion of quagga mussel by biomass in water shallower than 3 m ranged from 21 to 80% with no time trend between 2008 and 2015. Quagga mussels were larger than zebra mussels in all years suggesting that faster growth rates of quagga mussels are not limited to oligotrophic systems. These results suggest that the dominance of quagga mussels is related to their faster growth rate across food levels and to their higher ability to colonize deeper, softer sediments even if these bottoms are located in the epilimnion. The continued coexistence of both species in 0-3 m depths may be related to the advantage of greater attachment strength of zebra mussels in areas more affected by wave action and/or higher predation rates by fish in shallow water.

Currently, predation on mussels in North America may be too low to give zebra mussels a competitive advantage from their higher anti-predation investments given the cost in reduced growth rates (Naddafi and Rudstam 2014). This could change with the invasion of a dreissenid specialist, the round goby (Houghton and Janssen 2014). Round goby arrived to Onondaga Lake in 2010 and has increased in abundance each year (UFI et al. 2015). Mussel biomass in Onondaga Lake did decline from 2011 to 2014 although biomass in 2014 was higher than in 2013. The mussels in 2014 were small and likely from new settlement during that year indicating high mortality of larger mussels. The timing of the decline is consistent with the increase in round goby and the decline is larger for quagga mussels than for zebra mussels, both observations that are consistent with a predation effect from round goby. However, the low values in 2013 are also partly due to dredging at several of the sample stations in 2013 in the southern part of the lake.

EFC APPROVES $497.5 MILLION IN GRANTS & LOANS TO UPGRADE LOCAL WASTEWATER AND DRINKING WATER SYSTEMS October 4, 2016

New York, NY — During, the second quarter of EFC’s fiscal year, commencing in July and ending on September 30, the Board of Directors of the New York State Environmental Facilities Corporation (EFC) has approved $497.5 million in grants and interest-free and low-cost loans to support vital wastewater and drinking water infrastructure projects throughout New York State. ―Strengthening our water systems is critical for improving the quality of life for communities across the state,‖ said Sabrina Ty, President & CEO of the Environmental Facilities Corporation. ―EFC remains committed to working in partnership with these municipalities and others throughout the state to safeguard our water resources and achieve a higher quality of life for our citizens.‖ The EFC Board of Directors has approved $497.5 million in financial assistance for drinking water and wastewater projects in Upstate New York and Long Island. This funding includes nearly $13.6 million in grants that were part of the first two rounds issued pursuant to the New York State Water Infrastructure Improvement Act (WIIA) of 2015.

Funds under WIIA were increased in the 2016-17 New York State budget, allowing EFC to broaden eligibility for wastewater projects and increase the maximum grant amount for drinking water projects from $2 million to $3 million, or 60 percent of eligible projects costs – whichever is less. The 2nd Round of awards were announced by Governor Cuomo in a series of seven regional Press Releases.

Recently approved projects include: […] 

 

Village of Marcellus (Onondaga County) – $5.6 million ($1.4 million New York State Water Grant and $4.2 million interest-free loan) to finance costs associated with the planning, design and construction of the Village of Marcellus Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) upgrade. The project will produce higher quality effluent discharged to Ninemile Creek and Onondaga Lake.

Onondaga County — $3.9 million low-interest loan to finance costs for the planning, design, and construction of Phase II of the Clinton Combined Sewer Overflow (CSO) Abatement Project.

Onondaga County — $372,788 low-interest loan to finance costs to install green infrastructure practices at the Southwest Community Center, located on South Avenue in the City of Syracuse, to infiltrate stormwater runoff and reduce flows to the City’s combined sewer system.

State-of-the-art parking lot soaks up rain water

by Daniel Messineo October 21, 2016 SYRACUSE, N.Y. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The rain hitting Central New York over the past day flows down driveways and parking lots across Syracuse inundating the sewage system, and when it overflows, that water has got to go somewhere.

"The lake we're saving is Onondaga Lake. We're saving the sewage from going into Onondaga Lake," Alan Poushter, owner of Ra-Lin, said.

Poushter is hoping to be a small part of the solution.

It's a green initiative spearheaded by Onondaga County called "Save the Rain."

With the financial help from the county, Poushter put in a new parking lot, but this is not your ordinary parking lot, this one acts as a sponge.

"This is the water coming off the roof and you see it's coming down the driveway, but it's not running down at all. It's not running anywhere it's just going right into the porous blacktop," Poushter said. http://cnycentral.com/news/local/state-of-the-art-parking-lot-soaks-up-rain-water

The intent of the parking lot is to cut down on water pollution from Onondaga County's lakes and streams.

There is a dramatic difference between the old parking lot at Ra-Lin and the new one.

The rain water freely flows across the old parking lot; when the water hits the new one, it seeps into the porous surface and disappears.

Poushter said the county picked up more than $200,000 of the $250,000 bill to install it.

"Not totally free, but almost free driveway. Brand new driveway and you're helping the county and you're helping your community. It's a win, win," Poushter said.

The state-of-the-art parking lot is expected to last about 10 years. Eventually, dust and dirt will clog the porous surface, keeping it from absorbing.

“Connect The Drops” Anti-Litter Campaign

BY ANNALISA PARDO, BDJ 664.01 Published on October 22, 2016 at 7:41pm

SYRACUSE, N.Y. (NCC NEWS) – Onondaga County is asking residents to connect drops of litter with drops of rain in their latest Onondaga Lake clean up campaign, Connect the Drops.

In 1994, Onondaga Lake was put on the National Priorities List by the Environmental Protection Agency.

Since then, the county has been successful in removing some of the most harmful chemical pollutants from the lake, including: mercury and toluene.

Now, it’s time they tackle the next lake polluter: street-born litter.

The Connect the Drops campaign says 98% of debris in lakes, is street-born litter.

They said drops of litter on the street is brought into storm drains and gray infrastructure by drops of rain, which then clogs waterways or is overflowed into Onondaga Lake.

https://nccnews.expressions.syr.edu/2016/10/22/connect-the-drops-anti-litter-campaign/

Travis Glazier, Director of the Office of Environment for Onondaga County explained one of the biggest challenges the campaign faces is changing peoples’ habits.

He encourages citizens to help out by picking up trash they pass on the street.

He told us the litter in Onondaga Lake does not only cost the environment.

“It’s creating a lot of municipal costs by us having to go in the waterways and collect these floatables and get them out of the water,” he said.

Glazier told us another challenge is the fact that litter doesn’t only come from community members, but also from open load trucks passing through Onondaga County.

He told us he hopes the financial costs of litter clean up paired with the fact that Onondaga Lake is “our lake” and is in our own backyard will encourage citizens to take action and help reduce littering.

On Friday a F.O.C.U.S. Forum was helped to educate citizens about the new campaign and to launch a new survey regarding the future use of the lake.

The comprehensive survey will be open until January 2017.

New report says Lakeview Amphitheater doubled initial economic impact projections

by Alexander Dunbar | Thursday, November 10th 2016

A report on the Lakeview Amphitheater's first season says the venue has shattered expectations and more than doubled initial projections.

The Syracuse Convention and Visitors Bureau and SMG, the company running the amphitheater, delivered the details to the Onondaga County Legislature's Planning and Economic Development committee.

Initial estimates called for the Lakeview Amphitheater to host 18 events, have a economic spending impact of $24.98 million and have a local direct tax impact of $588,077. The new report presented by David Holder from the Convention and Visitors Bureau and Kelly Carr from SMG estimates the amphitheater doubled those numbers.

Their presentation said the amphitheater had a $53 million economic impact and a helped bring in $1.25 million in local sales and hotel taxes just in year one.

http://cnycentral.com/news/local/new-report-says-lakeview-amphitheater-doubled-initial-economic-impactprojections

"This tourism would not necessarily have happened without the amphitheater in place," said Holder.

Initially it was predicted only 11% of people seeing shows at the amphitheater would travel from out of the area and need a hotel. Instead Holder and Carr say 41% of concert goers were overnight guests.

"On average, hotel performance on any given night of a concert was up 11%," said Holder.

It all sounds impressive but Onondaga County Comptroller Bob Antonacci says he wants to see more data, more numbers from SMG to prove the county's investment was worth it.

"The lack of transparency is frightening. We can't get data, we can get copies of the contracts. I don't understand - it's a taxpayer facility," said Antonacci.

Onondaga County legislator Kathy Rapp asked the Carr if the amphitheater if it turned a profit in its first season. Carr said the details are being worked out but it "does look promising."

F.O.C.U.S. survey on Onondaga Lake now online Nov 22, 2016

By Sarah Hall Editor

What do you want for Onondaga Lake?

That’s the central theme of a survey now available from F.O.C.U.S. Greater Syracuse, a civic group that has been conducting research on the lake and the surrounding community for nearly 20 years. The nonprofit has been working to create the survey since July. It’s now online for residents and other lake stakeholders to fill out.

In 2012, F.O.C.U.S. released a citizen-centered report entitled F.O.C.U.S. on Onondaga Lake: A Roadmap to Facilitate Reconnecting the Lake with the Community. That report is available at focussyracuse.org. One of the report’s most significant findings, after conducting more than 1,000 citizen surveys and 100 stakeholder interviews, was that

http://www.eaglenewsonline.com/news/2016/11/22/f-o-c-u-s-survey-on-onondaga-lake-now-online

the majority wanted to make the lake more accessible to the public. That involved continuing the cleanup, as well as allowing for more public access and more public events.

From the 2012 report, F.O.C.U.S continued reaching out to the public to learn more about its desires for the lake. This online survey is the latest effort in that endeavor.

Results from the survey, which will be conducted through 2017, will be incorporated with those of a July 2016 snapshot survey and stakeholder interviews into a report that will eventually be presented to Onondaga County Executive Joanie Mahoney. The county will then use the report to decide how to proceed with the lake once cleanup is complete.

To take the survey, visit focussyracuse.org/ourlake.

See former Syracuse factory transformed into apartments (photos)

Syracuse, N.Y. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A nearly $20 million redevelopment is turning the former R.E. Dietz Co. lantern factory in Syracuse's Park Avenue neighborhood into apartments and offices. http://www.syracuse.com/businessnews/index.ssf/2016/12/see_former_syracuse_factory_transformed_into_apartments_photos.html

Work on the $19.2 million project at 225-303 Wilkinson St. began this fall. The building is expected to be ready for occupancy by Aug. 1.

The developers â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Larry Losty Jr. and his son-in-law, Matthew Paulus â&#x20AC;&#x201D; are putting 92 apartments into the old factory's top three floors and 37,500 square feet of commercial space on the first floor.

"The Dietz" will have 68 one-bedroom, 21 two-bedroom and three three-bedroom units, with monthly rents ranging from $1,000 to $2,300. Each will have large windows, high ceilings, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and in-unit washers and dryers.

In addition, the 208,000-square-foot building will have a fitness center and a conference room for tenants, as well as 108 indoor parking spaces and 98 outdoor parking spaces.

Losty and Paulus said they plan to leave the building's brick walls and its many wooden ceiling beams and support posts exposed as a reminder of the building's past.

"People are going to like the industrial look," Losty said. "They made things here."

The Steam Gauge and Lantern Co. operated on the site from 1888 to 1897. Prior to that, it was home to a cabinet maker's shop.

The Dietz company took it over in 1897. It built a large addition in 1904 when it obtained a major contract to supply lanterns for the construction of the Panama Canal. The building was expanded again in 1913, 1915 and in the 1930s. By 1969, the company employed 545 people at the factory.

Dietz shut down in 1992 following a labor dispute. The Dietz family sold the building to Losty for $35,000 in 1992. Losty spent $500,000 for roof repairs, a new sprinkler system and other needed upgrades soon after the purchase and until recently ran his office furniture business, Superior Office Interiors, out of it.

Paulus said he expects the apartments to attract young professionals, empty nesters and graduate students. The building's location across the street from Leavenworth Park, its proximity to downtown Syracuse and its easy access to Interstates 690 and 81 are all major draws, he said.

"There are a lot of people who want to be downtown without being downtown," he said.

The project is the latest sign of a revival of the Westside neighborhood. The former C.G. Meaker Food Co. warehouse at 538 Erie Blvd. W., a block from the Dietz, recently reopened as an apartment and office building. And the former Marsellus Casket factory nearby was recently redeveloped as the local headquarters of the American Medical Response ambulance service.

The Community Preservation Corp. and its lending partners Pathfinder Bank and NBT Bank are providing a $19.2 million construction loan for the Dietz project. CPC also is providing a $16.2 million permanent loan funded through its agreement with the state Common Retirement Fund.

"It's part of the revitalization of a neighborhood," said Nicholas Petragnani Jr., senior vice president and regional director of CPC. "That's how we look at this, not so much as a one-off loan for a project."

The state has agreed to provide a $900,000 grant through its Regional Economic Development Council initiative. In addition, Onondaga County is providing a $517,000 grant through its Save the Rain program. The project also will be eligible for state and federal historic preservation tax credits.

Onondaga County warns residents of possible sewer overflows

By Brett Hall | December 17, 2016

SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- The combined sewer overflow notification service sent out an alert Saturday morning warning that weather conditions were opportune for system backups.

"Anytime it rains there is a chance that there can be a backup in the system," said Tom Rhoads, the commissioner of the Department of Water Environment Protection in Onondaga county. "Right now however the system is operating normally."

The alert puts the county in compliance with the New York Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Sewage Pollution Right to Know Act. It was sent out in conjunction with 'Save the Rain,' a program which is aimed at cleaning up and fixing up the sewer system so that rain runoff overflows do not continue to pollute the Onondaga Lake Watershed.

From the Legislature: Lakeview Amphitheater surpasses expectations in inaugural season December 23, 2016

The Lakeview Amphitheater has completed its inaugural season, and the draw of our new music venue surpassed expectations. At a recent Planning and Economic Development meeting, representatives from Visit Syracuse and SMG Management provided an update on the financial impact of the first season and some things that we can look forward to as we start booking for next year.

At the end of 2014, the legislature had a tough decision to make based on preliminary numbers.

The original projections estimated that the Lakeview Amphitheater would host 18 shows and ticket sales would be just under $142,000. In 2016, we hosted 22 shows and ticket sales exceeded $200,000!

Visit Syracuse, our regionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tourism promoter, provided some interesting data on the concertgoers â&#x20AC;&#x201D; where they were from and how much they would spend. Initial estimates http://www.eaglenewsonline.com/news/2016/12/23/from-the-legislature-lakeview-amphitheatersurpasses-expectations-in-inaugural-season

projected 89 percent of spectators would be “local/regional” — in other words, no more than an hour from Syracuse. The actual numbers suggest that only 59 percent of attendees were local/regional patrons, which is great news! More than 40 percent of concertgoers came to Onondaga County from more than an hour away, and brought their entertainment dollars with them. With that distance comes potential room nights at local hotels, dinners at local restaurants, and time to visit other attractions in the area.

Room nights, or hotel room stays as they are called in hospitality jargon, were positively affected by the Lakeview Amphitheater as well. Original projections estimated that 10 percent of domestic spectators and 1 percent of Canadian spectators would spend at least one night in Syracuse. Actual figures show that 26 percent of domestic and 15 percent of Canadian concert attendees spent the night! This generated additional sales tax revenues to operate county government and room occupancy taxes, which are used to fund other arts and cultural opportunities in Onondaga County like Symphoria, JazzFest and the Everson Museum.

The total spending and direct tax impact were substantially higher than the estimates. Total spending was estimated at just under $25 million for the season; however, spectators spent more than $50 million! The direct local tax impact will be more than $1 million. In a tough budget year, where we saw personnel and healthcare costs increase significantly, the additional revenue from the Lakeview Amphitheater was needed.

Lastly, the legislature was told that the Amphitheater would create approximately 360 jobs.

Between SMG Management, Aramark Refreshments, Live Nation, and local businesses that total exceeded 780 jobs.

SMG and county officials received a lot of feedback throughout the concert season on ways to improve the experience at the Lakeview Amphitheater, and we’re working together to implement some of these suggestions, most critically with improvements to be made to the concessions and parking in the near future. The shuttles from downtown proved to be quite successful and those will continue next year, which is great news for downtown businesses that also saw the impact on concert nights.

Overall, it was a great first season! We must build on this momentum and secure great acts that keep attendees coming to the Lakeview Amphitheater and staying in Syracuse.

Derek Shepard represents the 13th legislative district; this includes the town of Van Buren, the town of Elbridge and portions of the town of Camillus. Derek welcomes constituent feedback; he can be reached by email at shepard@twcny.rr.com or by phone at 635-3875.
