Laurelwood Park and Laurelwood Parkway Median updates October 22, 2024
Laurelwood Park: Most all the tables and benches have been replaced. A handicap picnic bench was added underneath the gazebo, one picnic bench is on order and will be replaced soon, trash cans, water fountain, and bark to replace the playground sand is pending installation, and some of the playground equipment will be replaced. Thank you very much City Councilor Louie Sanchez for getting us an updated Park.
Laurelwood Parkway: The City is working on replacing the irrigation system on the middle median so more trees can be planted. This is a long term project due to the median grade needs to be leveled and the irrigation system needs to be redesigned and it will also require extra funding (Capital Outlay Funding) from our Legislature to complete. We need you to help by contacting our Legislators Senator Antonio Moe Maestas and Rep Eleanor Chavez and letting them know we would like them to invest some Capital Outlay money to improve Laurelwood Parkway

Laurelwood Neighborhood Annual Mtg and Election Results from Saturday April 1 2023 Patrick Baca Library Central & Unser
Good evening Neighbors,
Hope you had the chance to enjoy the fair weather over the weekend.
I want to thank all of you who attended Laurelwoods meeting on Saturday.
APD NW Command, Lt. Costales and Officer Wesley shared with us on how well we are doing on Crime Statistics - Laurelwood as a whole is doing well. The Canon de Arrowhead Apts have primarily suspious person calls and there will be a speed radar camera installed near Ladera and Unser. Our newly elected County Commissioner Barbara Baca introduced herself and gave us a brifing on some of the projects the County is working on. Newly appointed Senator Antonio Maestas and newly elected Representative Eleanor Chavez provided a legislative debriefing on what bills have passed and what to anticipate going forward.
A special thanks to Pat Hurley Neighborhood Association, President Julie Radoslovich and West Gate Neighborhood Association Vice President Christopher Sedillo for attending.

Congratulations and thank you, for without your volunteerism we would not have a recognized Neighborhood Association nor a voice to stand up for our Community.
The Laurelwood Neighborhood Association is still strong after 35+ years. It's very important for all our Neighborhoods and Communities to continue to organize and to have a thunderous voice in our Community because together, we make a difference.
