West Hills Neighborhood Council Beautification Committee joint meeting, August 18, 2026
From official records: The West Hills Neighborhood Council's joint board and Beautification Committee agenda for Aug. 18, 2026 listed for possible action the Council motion on the City's internal tree spacing guidelines (CF 26-1050), clearing overgrowth on pedestrian bridges, cleanup events for September and November 2026 and right-of-way letters, plus West Hills park updates including efforts to make Orcutt Ranch a monarch butterfly sanctuary. As of Oct. 1, 2026, no West Hills Community Impact Statement was on the council file, the committee's Sept. 15 agenda listed the August minutes for approval without attaching them, and no minutes were on the City's agenda index, so outcomes are not known.
