Tazan Golsan spoke at our last meeting on Bridge Housing, which provides temporary emergency housing including private beds, toilets, meals and showers to homeless individuals so that they can have a feeling of security and dignity.

Northridge West won an award for beautifying the Tampa Median with topiary horses.

The installation of the three stunning, large than life size topiary horses are the culmination of a long process of Neighborhood Council meetings, collaboration with the Northridge Beautification Foundation, support from former local Councilmen Mitchell Englander, meetings with local city agencies such as the Urban Forestry Division, LA Department of Transportation, and the Bureau of Engineering.

The Oakridge Estate Park construction is finished and the park is open to the public. The eight-acre park has 128 new trees, 12 picnic tables, playground equipment, a small amphitheater and a meandering .3-mile walking trail. Children will enjoy the bouncy tractor and the mare and foal sculpture.

Elections for 7 seats on the Northridge West Neighborhood Council will be held on May 4.
