Another successful Planning Symposium in the books! 🎉 Yesterday marked the Onondaga County Planning Federation 37th Annual Planning Symposium. Our team joined many local leaders and community members to participate in trainings where we heard from over 20 different presenters as well as this year’s keynote speaker, President and CEO of Saratoga Economic Development Corporation J. Gregory Connors.
As we prepare for the unprecedented growth in our community, training and education play an important role in coordinating and collaborating with our local partners to create successful plans for our community. Thank you to our Onondaga County Team and partners for putting together such a great event! 👏

🍎 Good news for landowners: You can now request to add or remove properties from Ag District 1!
