El Paso Elections, Job Boom, Holiday Happenings: Your Local Pulse Update
Good morning, this is El Paso Local Pulse for Saturday, December 14, 2024. Today is a big day in our city as voters head to the polls for the runoff election. The mayoral runoff pits businessman Renard Johnson against city Rep. Brian Kennedy, while five city representative seats will also be on the ballot: Districts 1, 3, 4, 5, and 7. We encourage everyone to get out and exercise their right to vote.
In other news, our job market continues to boom. According to the latest data from the Dallas Fed, El Paso employment increased by an annualized 3.9 percent from July through October, with professional and business services experiencing the largest gains. This is great news for our community, as it indicates a strong and growing economy. The current unemployment rate in El Paso is 4.5 percent, slightly higher than the state and national averages.
On the real estate front, we don't have any major updates today, but we do want to remind everyone that the holiday season is a great time to support local businesses. The City of El Paso is marking Small Business Saturday and inviting the community to shop local at The Market at WinterFest. This is a great opportunity to find unique gifts for your loved ones and support our local entrepreneurs.
From city hall, we have updates on the potential Meta data center in Northeast El Paso. The El Paso City Council is set to discuss the status of this project during their meeting. We'll keep you updated on any developments.
Weather-wise, it's looking like a beautiful day today with clear skies and a high of 64 degrees. Perfect weather to get out and enjoy some of the holiday festivities around town.
In new business activity, Albertsons in Horizon City recently celebrated its opening with gift cards and $100,000 in grants. This is a great addition to our local shopping scene.
Looking ahead to the next few days, Texas Tech Health El Paso is hosting a holiday event on campus, inviting the community to come and enjoy some festive cheer. Also, don't forget to check out The Market at WinterFest for some unique holiday shopping.
In local school achievements, UTEP volleyball's historic run has sparked hope for an even brighter future. We're proud of our local athletes and their accomplishments.
On a feel-good note, El Paso's foster children will be receiving Christmas gifts through a community holiday campaign. It's heartwarming to see our community come together to support those in need.
In today's crime report, police are seeking the driver in a deadly Lower Valley crash that killed a 64-year-old woman. We urge anyone with information to come forward and assist the authorities.
This has been El Paso Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
