Rescued this kitty from 101 Freeway, this morning during rush hour and rainy traffic! Three other lovely ladies were pulled over, and as a team we got him. He will need a home. With his exciting harrowing ordeal, I know YOU are just dying to take him home. Right? Seriously, kitty needs a home.

Dear Neighbor,
Behind the green fence on Washington Boulevard, a transformative project is taking place. A 56-year-old flood control basin is being renovated to become a healthier, more-vibrant ecosystem with new opportunities for recreation and observing wildlife in a natural setting.
The $13 million Oxford Basin Multiuse Enhancement Project will increase flood protection for neighboring properties and provide park-like amenities; a lush, native plant habitat and improved water quality within the basin. Other key project elements include an illuminated walking path, bike lanes, decorative fencing and the replacement of non-native and diseased vegetation with 730 native trees and more than 45,000 native plants. Attached are two renderings of the project.
Construction at the project site will resume in the latter part of May or early June with trucks removing wet sediment and soil from the basin. LA County Public Works will work closely with the contractor and neighboring communities to limit the temporary increase in dust, noise and traffic.
The project is on target for completion in spring 2016, and Public Works will provide regular email updates on its progress. For more information, contact Vincent Yu at (626)300-3203 or VYU@dpw.lacounty.gov.
