Originally there were three plants in the area, but this time I only found one remaining. I think the other two died.

dcvmnaturalistDescription
Spiny cactus, flowers with yellow tepals and a red base, consistent with O. cespitosa. Furthermore, there are cacti in this entire park with only yellow flowers, so I would consider the entire colony along the fence line of this park to be the same species.
*Sept 26, 2024 - Updated this observation with photos showing the fruits. All fruits in the colony here looked just like these.

Photo credit to Dave Twist. For time/date of sighting, he said:
On June 15th 2023, asked Dave Twist when the Bobcat images were taken and he said:
"they were taken this year just a few weeks ago."
So I used May 10th 2023, but that could be a bit earlier or later.
