    Breaking News, Tragedy, and Community Happenings in Kansas City
    2024/11/24
    Good morning, this is Kansas City Local Pulse for Sunday, November 24, 2024.

    We're starting with some breaking news from the past few days. A driver was killed late Friday night on I-70 in downtown Kansas City, Kansas, in a tragic accident that has left many in our community shaken[1]. Additionally, a man in a wheelchair was hit and killed Wednesday night trying to cross U.S. 49 Highway, highlighting the need for increased safety measures on our roads.

    In local education news, the Park Hill School District is in the final phase of redistricting, causing concern among parents about the potential impact on their children's education[1]. Meanwhile, the KCPS board has approved a bond proposal, asking voters to help upgrade facilities, which could bring significant improvements to our local schools.

    On the job market front, we don't have any major hiring announcements or new job postings to report today. However, it's worth noting that Kansas has launched a new system to process unemployment claims, which should help streamline the process for those in need[1].

    In real estate, 19 Kansas City-area Minit Marts have been sold and will be rebranded to Phillips 66, marking a significant change in our local convenience store landscape[1]. Additionally, the Kansas City South Loop project continues with drilling and digging test holes, which could pave the way for new development in the area.

    From city hall, we have news that the majority of Jackson County legislators skipped a meeting on Wednesday, raising questions about their commitment to addressing local issues[1]. On a more positive note, the KCZoo has announced a new $30 million giraffe complex set to open in May 2026, which promises to be a fantastic addition to our city's attractions.

    Weather-wise, today is expected to be cloudy with rain possible, so make sure to check the forecast before heading out. This could impact outdoor activities and events, so it's a good idea to have a backup plan.

    In new business activity, we have the opening of a new Chick-fil-A in Shawnee, which is participating in the 2024 Season of Hope[1]. On the other hand, Hooters has closed several underperforming locations in the area, reflecting the changing landscape of our local dining scene.

    Looking ahead to community events, there are plenty of things to do in Kansas City this weekend, including the Cirque du Soleil's ''Twas the Night Before..." show, which is sure to bring holiday spirit to our city[1][5].

    In local school achievements, we have news that the Lee’s Summit Citizen Advisory Committee has recommended school consolidation, which could have significant implications for our local education system[1].

    On a feel-good note, a local jeweler is using her designs to raise awareness of missing and murdered indigenous women, highlighting the power of art to make a difference in our community[2].

    In today's crime report, we have news of a man pleading guilty in a 2023 shots fired incident at Oak Park Mall, and police are investigating a shooting near Southwest Boulevard[1][3]. We also have reports of a hit and run crash on 71 Highway in Kansas City, which resulted in one fatality.

    "KCATA Route Cuts, Lawrence Development Debate, and More KC Area News"
    2024/11/23
    Good morning, this is Kansas City Local Pulse for Saturday, November 23, 2024.

    We start with breaking news from the past few days. The Kansas City Area Transportation Authority (KCATA) is considering cutting bus routes ahead of the 2025 fiscal year due to the depletion of CARES Act funds. This change could significantly impact commuters across the city. Meanwhile, in Lawrence, a new land development code has been passed, raising concerns among residents about potential changes to neighborhood landscapes.

    In local education news, the Kansas City Public Schools (KCPS) board has approved a bond proposal to upgrade facilities, which will be put to voters. Additionally, the Lee's Summit Citizen Advisory Committee has recommended school consolidation, sparking concerns among parents and community members.

    On the job market front, there have been no major hiring announcements in the past few days, but Kansas has launched a new system to process unemployment claims, aiming to streamline the process for those in need.

    In real estate, notable commercial property sales include the sale of 19 Kansas City-area Minit Marts, which will be rebranded to Phillips 66. The Kansas City Zoo has also announced a new $30 million giraffe complex set to open in May 2026.

    From city hall, the mayors of various Missouri cities, including Kansas City, are urging Governor-elect Mike Kehoe to work with them on addressing crime issues. This comes as the city continues to grapple with public safety concerns.

    Weather-wise, today is expected to be cloudy with possible rain, which could impact outdoor activities and events. The forecast suggests a warmer weekend ahead before temperatures drop for Thanksgiving.

    In new business activity, Betty Rae’s Ice Cream is opening its fifth KC-area location, and a major cyberattack has hit Kansas City area car dealers. On the other hand, Hooters has closed several underperforming locations.

    Looking ahead to community events, this weekend features the Lee's Summit Mayor's Tree Lighting, the Festival of Lights, and the Ararat Shrine Circus. These events offer a great opportunity for families to come together and enjoy the holiday spirit.

    In local sports, the Kansas City Chiefs remain undefeated after beating the 49ers 28-18 in a Super Bowl rematch. The team's running game and defense were key to their victory.

    On a feel-good note, a jeweler in Kansas City is using her designs to raise awareness about missing and murdered indigenous women, highlighting the importance of community support and awareness.

    In today's crime report, police are investigating a shooting near Southwest Boulevard, and a man was injured in a Tuesday night shooting in Independence. Additionally, a 54-year-old man who went missing has been safely located by Kansas City police.

    "KC Pulse: Hit-and-Run Tragedy, Layoffs, Gun Debate, Freeze Warning, and Community Celebrations"
    2024/11/22
    Good morning, this is Kansas City Local Pulse for Friday, November 22, 2024.

    We're starting with breaking news from the past few days. A late Tuesday hit and run crash on 71 Highway in Kansas City left one person dead, and police are still investigating the incident[2]. Additionally, a man in a wheelchair was hit and killed Wednesday night trying to cross U.S. 49 Highway. Our thoughts are with the families affected by these tragedies.

    In local business news, parts supplier Martinrea is laying off approximately 140 employees at its Riverside facility, which is a significant blow to the local job market[1]. On a more positive note, the Kansas City area is seeing some new developments, including a data center coming to the former KC Star plant in the Crossroads district. Business owners in the area are reacting positively to this news, citing potential economic benefits[1].

    In real estate, Overland Park is making efforts to remove discriminatory language from property deeds, a move that could have significant impacts on the local housing market[1]. Meanwhile, the KCPS Board of Directors has approved a $424 million bond proposal to upgrade facilities, which could lead to new construction projects in the area[1].

    From city hall, we have updates on decisions that affect daily life. The Jackson County legislators have overridden County Executive Frank White's veto on a new gun ordinance, which bans anyone 18-21 from owning handguns and semi-automatic rifles[5]. This move has sparked controversy, with the Missouri Attorney General planning to sue Jackson County over the ordinance.

    Weather-wise, we're expecting a hard freeze tonight, with temperatures dropping into the mid-20s and wind chills making it feel even colder[4]. This could impact outdoor activities and events, so be sure to bundle up if you're planning on venturing out.

    In new business activity, 19 Kansas City-area Minit Marts have been sold and will be rebranded to Phillips 66[2]. Additionally, the Canadian Pacific Kansas City Holiday Train will be making three stops in Missouri to support local food banks[3].

    Looking ahead to community events, the CPKC Holiday Train will be stopping in Kansas City, and the Cirque du Soleil's "Twas the Night Before..." show is bringing holiday spirit to the city[2]. The Kansas City Zoo has also announced a new $30 million giraffe complex set to open in May 2026[2].

    In local school achievements, the Park Hill School District is in the final phase of redistricting, which has some parents concerned about the impacts on their children's education[2]. On a more positive note, a Liberty teacher is receiving community support as she battles cancer[1].

    In a feel-good community story, an Independence woman celebrated her 101st birthday with a proclamation from the mayor, and we're wishing her a happy belated birthday[1].

    Finally, in today's crime report, we have a few significant incidents to report. A man was injured in a Tuesday night shooting in Independence, and police are still investigating the incident[1]. Additionally, a juvenile was struck and hospitalized Tuesday morning in Grain Valley[1].
