Syracuse Common Council passed a new 2% hotel tax to generate millions in revenue. The Council also ordered an audit of the city's $10 million IT system modernization project.

One Syracuse Common Councilor says the city needs to find new revenue sources to avoid financial troubles.

The 3rd District includes neighborhoods like Westcott, University Hill and Meadow Brook. The seat is open as current District 3 Councilor Chol Majok is running for the at-large seat.
