Summer is coming to an end, but the heat is sticking around a while longer – why not join us at an air conditioned Council meeting? All Service Councils will meet in September. Each will conduct a review of their Fiscal Year 2017 activities and receive a Regional Service Performance Report.

San Fernando Valley and Westside Central Service Councils will also receive a Metro System Security and Law Enforcement Department update, while South Bay and Gateway Cities Service Councils will receive a U-Pass update.

Meanwhile, the San Gabriel Valley will catch up to the rest of the Councils by receiving the overview of the upcoming Bus Restructuring Study and the year-end Station Evaluation Report that were received last month by the other Councils. The San Gabriel Valley will also welcome Tim Sandoval as a new Council Member.

The public is welcome and encouraged to attend and share input at Service Council meetings. For more information about each Service Council Meeting, click on the name of the Council below to view their web page. All agenda items listed below.
