Tucson Local Pulse: Immigration Enforcement, Small Business Spotlight, Real Estate Updates, and More
Published 3 months ago
Description
Good morning, this is Tucson Local Pulse for Saturday, January 24. We start with breaking news from AZPM, where ICE has ramped up immigration enforcement right here in our city, so keep that in mind if youre traveling near borders today. Over at city hall, Pima County leaders just celebrated Bake a Difference Cookie Shop in Vail as small business of the year, with owner Alisha Brewer donating nearly two thousand dollars to animal nonprofits while selling chunky cookies at spots like Second Saturday on East Colossal Cave Road. That kind of community spirit warms us up on this mild winter morning.
Shifting to real estate, KB Home opened Mirador Ridge Skies yesterday in southeast Tucson at South Houghton and East Valencia roads, offering single-story homes from the low three-sixties with parks, walking paths, and zoning for top-rated Vail schools like Empire High. Its a big boost for families eyeing those Rincon Mountain views and easy I-10 access. Jobs are heating up too, with Caterpillar posting mining sales manager spots and Old Navy seeking an assistant manager at Tucson Premium Outlets on West Marana Center Boulevard, plus Pima Community Colleges Small Business Development Center hiring a coordinator.
In sports, our Arizona Wildcats gymnastics team dominated Towson last night with a score of one-ninety-six-point-eight to one-ninety-five-point-four, though details spotlighted Towson stars. Local schools shine with Pima County Public Library calling for high school art submissions now through February twenty-sixth at Joel D Valdez Main Library on North Stone Avenue, leading to a March exhibit and awards on the twenty-fifth.
New business buzz includes the Community Foundation for Southern Arizona awarding over nine hundred forty thousand dollars in solar grants to nine nonprofits, powering our green future. Crime report from the past day notes a tough one, an eighteen-year-old facing multiple charges after a shooting that killed two, handled sensitively by Tucson police.
Weather today brings sunny skies with highs near sixty-five and light winds, perfect for hiking Sabino Canyon or Loop trails, though bundle up for the evening dip to forty. Look ahead to calmer conditions through Monday.
For a feel-good lift, University of Arizona researchers and Tucson Fire Department released a video on firefighter health wins, making our first responders safer.
Upcoming, check Robles Ranch Community Center in Three Points for community fun soon. Thanks for tuning in, listeners, and remember to subscribe. This has been Tucson Local Pulse. Well see you tomorrow with more local updates. This has been a Quiet Please production, for more check out quietplease.ai.
