    Tucson Local Pulse: Earth Day, Prison Probe, Coffee Shop Opening, and More Community News
    2025/04/22
    Good morning, this is Tucson Local Pulse for Tuesday, April 22, 2025. Today is Earth Day, and all across our city we’re seeing neighbors getting involved, from the Green Valley Gardeners’ Volunteer Day at Canoa Ranch to clean-up events along the Rillito—all reminders of how connected we are to our Sonoran landscape. If you’ve got a moment, maybe step outside and enjoy some desert sunshine.

    Let’s start with breaking news. State Senator Kevin Payne has called for a full investigation into the recent deaths of three inmates at the Tucson Prison Complex. The incident shook the local community, and the state is promising transparency as the probe moves forward.

    In city government, Pima County is rolling out several Earth Day initiatives, including public input sessions on how we manage green spaces and water. The county is also reminding residents to be cautious as we get an early burst of summer-like heat. Today, we’re looking at a high around 87 degrees, sunny skies, and breezy conditions—great if you’re headed out, but don’t forget sun protection, especially if you’re attending outdoor events.

    On the business front, there’s a new coffee spot opening on Broadway, bringing a fresh taste and a dozen new jobs to midtown. We’re also watching shifting real estate numbers: home prices in Tucson have held steady this month, with the average home selling for just under $390,000—reflecting both strong demand and tight inventory citywide.

    For job seekers, Pima County is hosting a job fair this Thursday at the downtown convention center. With over fifty employers ranging from healthcare to hospitality, local officials say now’s a good moment to explore new opportunities. Meanwhile, Tucson Unified School District just announced a boost in teacher hiring for the fall, aiming to lower student-teacher ratios at several eastside schools.

    Turning to culture, there’s music in the air this week—literally. The Tucson Folk Festival kicks off Friday night downtown with free performances at Jacome Plaza, and the Fox Theatre hosts a jazz showcase on Saturday. Art lovers can check out the Tucson Museum of Art’s new exhibit celebrating local Chicano artists, running all week.

    On the sports front, Arizona Wildcats baseball came out on top in last night’s close game against ASU, winning six to five. High school track teams from Rincon and Catalina Foothills posted strong results in weekend meets, bringing home a handful of golds.

    As for public safety, overnight police responded to a burglary on Grant Road. No injuries reported, and thanks to security footage from a nearby business, officers made a swift arrest. The department also reminds us to lock our cars—there’s been an uptick in vehicle break-ins, especially around shopping centers on Oracle and Campbell.

    Finally, a feel-good note: Tucson’s oldest elementary school, Carrillo, is celebrating its 90th anniversary with a student art fair today, inviting families and alumni to walk the historic halls and share stories.

    This has been Tucson Local Pulse. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.

  • Sunny Skies, Outdoor Adventures, and Community News - Tucson Local Pulse Saturday Update

    Sunny Skies, Outdoor Adventures, and Community News - Tucson Local Pulse Saturday Update
    2025/04/19
    Good morning, this is Tucson Local Pulse for Saturday, April 19. We wake up today under sunny skies with a light breeze, and temperatures expected to reach the upper 80s. That forecast sets the tone for a perfect weekend to get outdoors, so whether you’re headed for a hike at Sabino Canyon or enjoying the farmers’ market at Rillito Park, you’re in luck. Looking ahead, we’ll see similar warm and dry weather through Sunday, great news for all the events on tap.

    Turning to city hall, the City of Tucson is deep in discussions for the upcoming fiscal year budget. Residents still have a chance to weigh in at upcoming town hall meetings. Meanwhile, a significant change is now in effect. The city has adopted the Community Corridors Tool amendment to the Unified Development Code. This decision hopes to spark thoughtful redevelopment along major roadways like Speedway and Broadway, with the aim of making our city more connected and vibrant.

    In breaking news, Tucson police are investigating a homicide on Fourth Avenue near University Boulevard from earlier this week. Our thoughts are with those impacted. Police are urging anyone with information to come forward. Also, a fatal vehicle collision occurred at East Golf Links Road, prompting renewed calls for road safety awareness in the area. Across the broader region, authorities continue to stress the importance of community engagement to keep our neighborhoods safe.

    Let’s talk about good news in the community. The Pima County Elections Department has just been honored with a national award from the U.S. Election Assistance Commission for excellence in election administration. This recognition reflects the dedication of our local officials to fair and efficient elections.

    In the job market, local tech and service sectors continue to show resilience. There are nearly 800 open positions currently advertised within city government and hospitals, giving hope to job seekers and college grads. When it comes to real estate, we’re seeing a steady market, with median home prices holding just under three hundred and fifty thousand dollars. That’s welcomed stability for both buyers and sellers as we head into summer.

    On the business front, we’re welcoming a new family-run bakery on South Sixth Avenue, set to open its doors next week. Meanwhile, a longtime local clothing shop on Campbell Avenue has announced it will close at the end of the month, wrapping up nearly three decades in business. The news is bittersweet for longtime customers.

    Sports fans, our Tucson Roadrunners fought hard last night at the TCC, but fell to the Colorado Eagles three to two. The playoff chances still hang in the balance, making tonight’s rematch especially exciting. Come out for Fan Appreciation Night if you can, as the team could clinch a playoff spot with a win and a little luck.

    School pride is running high after Catalina Foothills High’s robotics team advanced to the national finals. And, don’t forget, Spring Fling at the University of Arizona runs through tomorrow, bringing carnival rides and local eats to the campus Mall.

    That wraps up our morning. This has been Tucson Local Pulse. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.

  • Tucson Fire, Affordable Housing Boost, and Community Support - Pulse Update April 17, 2025

    Tucson Fire, Affordable Housing Boost, and Community Support - Pulse Update April 17, 2025
    2025/04/17
    Good morning, this is Tucson Local Pulse for Thursday, April 17, 2025.

    We start with breaking news from our east side, where a massive fire erupted near 4000 East Illinois Street on Tuesday. Fire crews responded swiftly and found used tires ablaze in an alleyway, sending thick smoke visible all the way from Tucson Mall. Thankfully, the fire was brought under control, no injuries were reported, and no homes or businesses were threatened. The area is now safe, but investigators from the Pima County Sheriff's Department continue looking into the cause.

    Turning to City Hall, big changes are happening today as a new amendment to Tucson's Unified Development Code goes into effect. This Community Corridors Tool aims to breathe life into our underused commercial stretches, turning empty parking lots and vacant strip malls along main streets into mixed-use neighborhoods. The goal is to boost housing and keep it affordable, while making our city more vibrant. Neighborhood groups and property owners will get notified every time this tool is used, and city planners will be watching its effect closely over the next two years.

    On the business side, excitement is building as DAISO, the popular Japanese-style variety store, opens its doors in Tucson this week. The store’s arrival is expected to create dozens of retail jobs and add a fresh shopping option for families near Park Place Mall.

    Looking at weather, we’re waking up to mild temperatures, but a warming trend is on the way. Expect sunny skies throughout the day with highs in the mid-80s, perfect for enjoying a stroll in Reid Park or catching an outdoor event. The rest of the week looks clear, with temperatures pushing into the upper 80s by the weekend.

    It’s fair season on the Southside as the Pima County Fair continues through April 27. You can catch carnival rides, local art, and nightly concerts down at the fairgrounds. Don’t forget about the food trucks and new attractions for kids and teens. In addition, local restaurants on Fourth Avenue are joining forces for Dine Out for Safety, with proceeds going to support survivors of sexual assault.

    In education news, the Tucson Unified School District board voted unanimously to stay in line with federal diversity and inclusion guidelines. This move keeps millions in federal funding coming to our classrooms, and families can expect more updates on how these changes will shape curriculum and school programs.

    In local sports, high school baseball playoffs are heating up, with Tucson High securing a spot in the next round thanks to a walk-off win last night. College athletes are also gearing up for the final weeks of spring sports.

    Looking at public safety, police are investigating a break-in at a Midtown elementary school, but thankfully no one was hurt and damages are minor. There’s also a lockdown at the state prison in Florence, meaning no visitation allowed today, but this does not directly affect the Tucson area.

    Finally, in a heartwarming show of support, the community has gathered around the family of an Alabama man who survived a hatchet attack in Midtown. Neighbors and local businesses have come together, raising funds and offering meals as the man recovers.

    This has been Tucson Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
