The City of Syracuse is once again looking for space to store millions of dollars of vehicles and equipment after a proposed lease at a Dewitt warehouse fell through.
Syracuse Common Councilors on Monday were asked to approve a three-year lease for 33,000 square feet of space at the former New Venture Gear factory.
Commissioner of Assessment Matt Oja told councilors ahead of the vote that the landlord had an extraordinary circumstance that prevented him from leasing the space.
Meanwhile, numerous police, fire, and public works vehicles will remain unprotected from the winter elements as they go without a place to be stored.
