On August 9, Councilmember Rosendahl joined Animal Services General Manager Ed Boks', Adam S. Hamilton and Gary Michelson at "The Big Lick" Pet Adoption event at West LA Animal Care Center. The pet adoption event is part of GM Boks' goal to make Los Angeles a "no kill" city. The Care Center had a great selection of dogs, cats, rabbits and even roosters and hens. The event resulted in 45 pet adoptions. Councilmember Rosendahl and Hamilton even took home a kitten! Thanks to the staff, volunteers, and adopters that helped make "The Big Lick" a great success!!!

Creating Affordable Housing

On July 30, Councilmember Rosendahl , in conjunction with the Los Angeles Housing Department (LAHD) and neighborhood councils, began a series of public meetings regarding the old West LA Animal Shelter and old Fire Station 62. During those meetings, the Councilmember laid out his vision for providing more affordable housing for the Westside.

Sean Spear, Director of Major Projects for LAHD, gave an overview of some of the projects the Department has done in the past. The agenda also reviewed the RFP process and gathered public comment from stakeholders. These meetings are part of a strategy by Councilmember Rosendahl to provide affordable housing on the Westside, while preserving the quality of life for our neighborhoods. If you would like to submit written comments regarding the projects, please e-mail them to councilman.rosendahl@lacity.org.
