The landscape improvements on Oak Park from Parfait to Shepardson are nearly complete. We still have a few trees to place. You may have noticed some small additons to other areas. We've added some plants in previously improved areas in order adjust for failed and damaged plants or plants that have not filled in as anticipated. The most notable other improvement was the removal of the large rosemary shrub near the sidewalk on Riddell. Removal of this shrub revealed the rocks behind the rosemary.
We are looking forward to seeing a more colorful spring as a result of new plantings!

Landscape Improvements Coming Soon!!!
Work on the section of Oak Park between Parfait and Shepardson will be done in November. This area encompasses the improvements described in the Oak Park/Parfait Corners and Oak Park/Shepardson Projects. Unhealthy plants and plants not consistent with the design intent are being removed. New plants that are draught tolerant and low maintenance will be added including several trees.
Some of the California native plants that we have been using include arcostaphylos (manzanita) and ceanothos. Other plants are selected from areas with a similar climate to ours.
