The Flip Your Strip program is a new service that began last summer as an effort to help residents conserve outdoor watering demands. The idea was generated by Ryan Mills, who knows that, typically, it is a large hurdle for a resident to decide to remove grass in park strips. Kathryn Lukes receives and processes the applications and provides information to residents who inquire about the program. Curtis Bowers, Kelby Kendall, and Lynn Mitchell worked together on the physical labor of excavating the grass. This has been a very successful program, with a high level of participation from city residents. We appreciate these employees for taking the lead on this very successful program.

THANK YOU all for your hard work and dedication to the city of Syracuse!
