Welcome to Pico Neighborhood Council
Summer Pests PDF Print E-mail

Hello Neighbors!

As you probably have already noticed, it's getting hot again. With the glorious, (albiet stifiling) weather comes the advent of summer pests. Consider this your check-list to protect you and your family's health against Mosquitos, Rodents, Bacteria and Fleas.

Mosquitos:

Check your property for any standing water. Believe it or not, these little guys can breed in even an inch of water - at the bottom of a discarded soda can, pet dishes and even puddles formed by air conditioning run-off. Ponds and fountains can be protected by adding a cup or two of Chlorine Bleach or, if you prefer a natural alternative, you can add a few Mosquito Fish. To get these fish free, contact the Vector Control people and get a list of locations where you can pick them up. They are really cute, kid's love them and they are very effective. To contact LA Vector control Click here: Mosquitofish

Remember, Mosquitos carry a ton of deseases, not the least of which is the West Nile Virus. Protect yourself, your pets and your neighbors - PLEASE!

Pico NC Raises the Bar PDF Print E-mail

As we welcomed our new Dept. of Neighborhood Empowerment (D.O.N.E.) representative, Grayce Liu, to the general board meeting last Wednesday night, she complimented our group on the 'highly functional' status that we have attained.  She was impressed with our ability to have rigorous debate while maintaining a respectful and civil exchange. 

She also expressed how impressed D.O.N.E. is with our website and recently launched association website empowerment program.  In fact, D.O.N.E. is planning to redo their own website and will use PICO NC as a model! 

Last but not least, they have also looked over our new bylaws and are equally impressed.  Way to go web folks and bylaws committee!

I am truly proud of what we've accomplished in the last 2-1/2 years and look forward to our continued growth of the organization, empowerment of our neighborhood associations and the betterment of our lifestyle in the Pico NC area.

Please join us for the Saturn Master Plan Community Planning Sessions:

Tuesday, July 28, 6:30 p.m. - 9:00 p.m.
Tuesday, August 25, 6:30 p.m. - 9:00 p.m.

All Saturn students, parents, teachers, administrators, and neighbors are welcome to brainstorm ideas for a campus transformation!

The Rings of Saturn are sponsoring the development of a Master Plan to transform the Saturn campus into a park-like setting open to the community during non-school hours.  The vision is inspired by the Trust for Public Land/People for Park's 'Community School Park' concept, which has been unanimously endorsed by the LAUSD School Board and L.A. City Council.  Read more.

AIA Associate Rogerio Carvalheiro of RC Design Federation has generously agreed to work pro bono to develop the Plan, guided by an Advisory Committee with expertise in school gardens and playscapes, but we need your help!  

What does a park look like? Please bring a photo of what a park looks like to you.  It may be a photo of gardens, playground equipment, a soccer field, or whatever else appeals to you!
