Community Services, Patrons, Fines and Fees with Ron Block and Wally Bowden,

This Round Table will present the process of implementing the new policy. The six month “Get to Zero” PR campaign to inform customers of the change and the impact that the change had on staff and customers when it was officially started on 7/1/2010.
