The candidate will travel throughout the 8th Council District before Election Day.

You'll soon have a chance to tell 8th Councilmanic District what you have to say.

Bass' campaign said Tuesday the front-runner in the race for the seat would travel throughout the 8th District over the next four weeks to "gather ideas from community leaders and voters of the ... district about moving the city forward."

Town hall-style forums at churches and community centers will be the basis of the tour. The first is scheduled for Tuesday night at New Joy Missionary Baptist Church at 2314 W. Allegheny Ave. from 7 to 8:30 p.m., but future sessions will also take place.
