Mayor Gary Herzig This year began with real plans â plans for a new look for downtown, new housing options for all income levels, live/work spaces for local artists, a downtown college academic presence, a new transit hub and renovated parking garage, exploring ways to increase pedestrian access to the Susquehanna River and to bring the Oneonta Theater back to life, a dog park in Neahwa Park, a new city website and so much more. This year began with real energy â a new Common Council, city strategic plan, updated comprehensive plan, and downtown revitalization implementation underway. This year ends with all of the above still intact.
