Good morning, this is your Spokane Local Frequency for February 16, 2026. Kicking off the week with some exciting local action, sports fans are still buzzing from yesterday's thrilling men's tennis match right here in Spokane, where Cal Poly's Mustangs edged out Weber State 4-3 in a neutral-site showdown, marking their fifth straight win and showcasing the growing tennis scene that's drawing crowds to our courts.[3] If you're a hockey enthusiast, keep an eye on the Tri-City Americans as they hit the ice tonight against the Kelowna Rockets, looking to snap a five-game skid after a tough 2-1 loss to Seattle this weekend, with the energy from Kennewick promising some intense Pacific Northwest rivalry play.[5]

Shifting to community developments that hit close to home, infrastructure upgrades are underway across the region, impacting how we travel and stay safe. Grant County Public Works is gearing up for bids on a major environmental cleanup project at a contaminated site, installing new treatment systems for water and vapor under state oversight, which means cleaner resources and better protection for families downstream from Ephrata.[1] Ephrata's also paving the way for family fun with sealed bids due March 5th for their Sports Complex Pavement Project, adding concrete pads, asphalt parking, and spots for future shelters at an estimated 450 grand, so kids and parents can enjoy safer play areas without the mud this spring.[1]

Mark your calendars for public input opportunities that shape our neighborhoods. Grant County's commissioners host an open hearing February 24th on declaring surplus vehicles for online auction, giving locals a say in smart asset management via Zoom or in-person at the Ephrata courthouse.[1] Grant PUD's pushing forward on a key 230kV transmission line easement from Wanapum to Mountain View, with a big decision meeting March 24th, ensuring reliable power flows to keep our homes lit and businesses humming amid growing energy demands.[1] Over in Moses Lake, comments are open until February 26th on the Grant Node industrial site's binding plan amendment, potentially boosting jobs and logistics at that Tyndall Road corner.[1]

For things to do, grab your racquet or cheer on more local sports at venues hosting these neutral-site gems, or dive into community meetings to voice your thoughts. Whether it's cleaner water systems safeguarding our rivers or upgraded parks for weekend warriors, these moves connect directly to brighter, more vibrant days ahead for Spokane families. This has been Spokane Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
