Brett Cragun's Syracuse council term runs from January 2024 to January 2028. The city lists him as advisor to the Syracuse Regional Museum Board and coordinator for new-business ribbon cuttings, with liaison roles for the Public Safety Jamboree and the community councils at Syracuse Elementary and Syracuse Junior High, and alternate membership on the Employee Appeals Board.
