Bluffton's semi-annual hydrant flushing is scheduled to begin at the end of October, according to Jamie Mehaffie, village administrator.
The fall flushing takes a little longer than the spring flushing due to the need to pump

Bluffton's leaf pick-up program will most likely begin the last week of October,
dependent on the weather.
