DeFrancisco returns as a pivotal voice in Pyramid mall debate
Former Syracuse councilor and state senator John DeFrancisco again clashes with Pyramid over PILOT and sales tax deals for Carousel Center expansion. He accuses the developer of manipulating taxpayers, while officials warn delays risk the project. The saga echoes a 1980s battle that ended with costly court settlements and mixed public gains.
