All Service Councils will meet in October, but not to worry, there are no Halloween surprises or scares on any of the agendas. While all the Councils will receive a presentation on the Regional Service Changes scheduled to be implemented in December 2015, none of the service changes are large enough to warrant a public hearing, other than those in the South Bay, which convened a hearing last month on September 16^th.
