On October 8, 2021 at noon, FOCUS Greater Syracuse partnered with GreeningUSA and the CNY Solidarity Coalition to bring you an IN PERSON Mayoral Candidate Forum at the City Hall Atrium! The speakers included the three candidates running for City of Syracuse Mayor: Democratic Party candidate Councilor Khalid Bey; Republican Party candidate Janet Burman, and Unaffiliated but running under the Independence Party candidate Mayor Ben Walsh; joining us will be our Moderator, Chris Bolt. Elections will be held on November 2, 2021.

The three Mayoral Candidates fielded questions about their vision to create a sustainable future for the City of Syracuse. Chris Bolt, WAER News and Public Affairs Director, moderated the forum. The forum was recorded for airing at a subsequent date on WAER-FM 88.3, and archived for later access, and posted to the GreeningUSA YouTube page.
