Greetings Highland Park!
I trust that you are all well and safe in this month of April that thus far is filled with sunshine and the rebirth of so many colorful flowers and butterflies. I want to begin with positivity because this is a bitter sweet moment for HHPNC. Much to my chagrin, this will be my last HHPNC president’s message. The time has come for me and the majority of the HHPNC board to bid you adieu as a new board and president are sworn in on May 2
nd
.
On April 13
th
, over 125 Highland Park stakeholders voted to elect 18 board members, who now compose HHPNC, which operates as a city government body on issues concerning the community of Highland Park, including city governance and services. Neighborhood councils cannot fulfill their purpose unless there is participation and involvement of all stakeholders, namely the community. The Highland Park community is composed of an array of Angelenos from all walks of life with diverse cultures, perspectives, demands and needs. Eighteen board members cannot do it alone, they need your active participation and voice.
Here is a link
to the unofficial voting results of the newly elected HHPNC board members, who will be certified by April 23
rd
once results become official.

Free Spay/Neuter Services for Cats During April!

LA Animal Services is offering free pet cat Spay/Neuter Certificates to all LA City residents from April 1 - April 30
During April, LA Animal Services will be offering free Cat Spay/Neuter Certificates to all LA City residents (three pet cats per household), regardless of income, to encourage our community to get their cats spayed or neutered before they have unwanted litters.
Kitten season is starting early again this year and LA Animal Services is seeing an increase in cat and kitten impounds citywide. By taking advantage of these Free Spay/Neuter Certificates, you can help prevent unwanted kitten births. To get your Free Certificate immediately, visit the nearest LA City Animal Services Center, or apply online for a print-at-home Free Certificate at
https://www.lacityvet.com/onlinevoucher/
"By spaying or neutering your cat or kitten, you are helping LA Animal Services get one step closer to reducing unwanted kitten births and helping LA Animal Services place more animals in homes of their own," said Brenda Barnette, LA Animal Services General Manager. "With our new print-at-home system, it's never been easier to spay or neuter your pet!"
This program is available for residents of the City of Los Angeles who are 18 years of age or older. Each household is eligible for Free Spay/Neuter Certificates for up to three cats. Free spay or neuter surgeries are for companion cats only, and stray animals are excluded. Once a Free Certificate is received, it must be redeemed at a participating veterinary hospital within 10 days of issuance.
