    Good morning, this is Tulsa Local Pulse for Sunday, April 5. We kick off with big news from city hall, where Tulsa just approved plans for The Harbor, a new low-barrier homeless shelter in downtown. This 30,000-square-foot spot near the Arkansas River will offer 100 beds, meals, showers, and case management to help folks get back on their feet, no ID or sobriety required. Construction starts soon, with doors opening early next year, making a real difference for our vulnerable neighbors.

    Last night's strong thunderstorms brought gusty winds up to 60 miles per hour across town, downing some trees near Riverside Drive and causing minor power flickers, but we dodged major damage. Today stays clear and comfortable, with highs around 70 degrees and light breezes perfect for outdoor plans. Expect mostly clear skies through Monday, warming to the mid-70s.

    In sports, our Golden Hurricane mens basketball team plays for their third NIT title tonight at 7 PM against Auburn in Indianapolis. Tune in on 99.5 FM to cheer them on, and catch Tulsa tennis facing number 72 Tulane at 10 AM, moved up due to weather worries.

    No major crimes in the last 24 hours, just a few minor thefts reported near 71st Street, with police reminding us to lock up.

  • Zach Bryan Postpones Tulsa Show as Storms Roll Through, City Eyes Charter Delays
    2026/04/04
    Good morning, this is Tulsa Local Pulse for Saturday, April 4th. We start with breaking news on the weather front, as severe storms forced country star Zach Bryan to cancel his Friday night homecoming show at H.A. Chapman Stadium on the University of Tulsa campus. He consulted with police, venue staff, and meteorologists, prioritizing safety after never canceling a headliner in five years of touring. Todays show at the same spot goes on as planned, but expect gusty winds and possible thunderstorms this morning, easing to partly cloudy skies by afternoon with highs around 72 degrees. That impacts outdoor plans, so stay alert near the Arkansas River trails.

    Shifting to City Hall, our council is debating a delay on city charter amendments, originally eyed for an August ballot. Theyre reviewing big changes like performance bonuses for public safety officers, an independent investigations office, and council approval for department heads. No final call yet, but some proposals might hit November instead, affecting how we govern daily services like street repairs on Peoria Avenue.

    In feel-good faith news, the Catholic Diocese of Tulsa reports over 600 new converts joining at Easter Vigil tonight, up 46 percent from last year. Holy Family Cathedral downtown welcomes 94 alone, receiving sacraments in a beautiful ceremony that strengthens our community bonds.

    New business stays steady, with no major openings or closings, though real estate sees median home prices holding at about $240,000, up 3 percent year-over-year per local listings. Jobs remain strong, with roughly 5,000 openings in energy and healthcare sectors.

    Crime in the past 24 hours includes a sensitive arrest near 71st and Memorial for a suspected burglary, and a public safety alert for flooding on Riverside Drive—drive carefully.

    Quick sports nod to the Tulsa Drillers gearing up against San Antonio Missions next week at ONEOK Field. Local schools shine too, with Booker T. Washington Highs debate team taking regionals.

  • Tulsa Local Pulse: Crime, School Bond Vote, and First Friday Art Crawl
    2026/04/03
    Good morning, this is Tulsa Local Pulse for Friday, April 3rd. We start with breaking news from the past day, a heartbreaking crime spree at Apache Manor apartments near Harvard. Tulsa Police report two people shot dead in a parked car, 75-year-old Moesly Livingston and 29-year-old Carlissa Harris, who was pregnant, plus a stabbing victim and burglaries in the complex. It ended with an officer-involved shooting of suspect Marsean Jacue Taylor at a nearby gas station after he threatened staff with knives. We urge caution in that area and ask anyone with tips to call Tulsa Crime Stoppers at 918-596-COPS.

    Shifting to city hall, community leaders rallied yesterday for the April 7th vote on a 609 million dollar school bond. The four propositions promise better student programs, safer buildings with new HVAC and roofs, modern tech, and more transportation like drivers ed, all without raising taxes. Early voting started in Tulsa County, so we encourage our listeners to get involved.

    Weather today brings thunderstorms with highs near 80 and lows at 49, 86 percent chance of rain, so plan indoor alternatives for outdoor fun and watch for heavy downpours or winds. Storms could linger tonight, but Saturday clears up to 64 degrees.

    On a positive note, Union Elementary fourth and fifth graders invented a device to help their blind classmate navigate halls, a true feel-good story of kid ingenuity. The Great Tulsa Clean-Up ramps up through April 30, now including Route 66 spots for the centennial, with nearly 500 volunteers signed up, 22 sites citywide, grab supplies at cityoftulsa.org/cleanup.

    Real estate buzz, Utica Square sold to a Denver firm, signaling big changes ahead. Jobs look steady, with Tulsa colleges launching AI skills labs to upskill workers and avoid displacement amid data center growth warnings.

  • Tulsa Local Pulse: Violence in Apache Manor, Events Park Reopens, Spring Storm Alert
    2026/04/02
    Good morning, this is Tulsa Local Pulse for Thursday, April 2. We kick off with breaking news from last night in the Apache Manor Apartments area near Apache and Harvard. Tulsa Police report a violent spree possibly tied to one suspect, 34-year-old Marsean Jacue Taylor. It started around 11:15 p.m. Tuesday with a shooting in a parked vehicle that killed a 75-year-old rideshare driver and his 29-year-old passenger. Soon after, a 30-year-old man was stabbed multiple times during a confrontation at the complex, but he's recovering. The suspect then hit a Maverick gas station, stealing beer and threatening staff with a knife. Officers tried less-lethal tools like tasers and pepper balls, but when he threw a knife at them, an officer fired, killing him. KTUL and KJRH confirm the investigation continues, and residents there feel shaken—we urge anyone with tips to call Tulsa Crime Stoppers at 918-596-COPS.

    Shifting to brighter spots, Events Park near 101st and the Creek Turnpike officially reopened yesterday after upgrades for the Sunset Amphitheater, including better roads, parking, a pedestrian bridge, and lighting. KRMG says it's ready for events like Scotfest in September. Downtown, Curbside Haiku brings poetry and art to our streets this spring, per the Downtown Tulsa Partnership.

    Weather-wise, KJRH forecasts cloudy skies today with highs near 80 degrees and gusty south winds up to 30 miles per hour. Storm chances rise this evening with risks of damaging winds and large hail—low tornado odds, but stay alert for outdoor plans. Things dry out tomorrow before another round Friday night.

    Looking ahead, catch Zach Bryan with Trampled By Turtles tomorrow at 7 p.m. at H.A. Chapman Stadium on East 11th. Today at noon, the Tulsa Air and Space Museum on 74th East Avenue hosts Legacy to Launch, sparking our space industry. And mark April 14 for the Tulsa Regional Chamber's OneVoice fly-in in D.C., pushing for business wins.

    City Hall notes no big daily decisions today, but those park improvements boost our events scene. Job market stays steady with about 5,000 openings listed locally, and real estate sees median homes around 280,000 dollars. Local schools report strong spring test scores, and no major sports upsets.

    For a feel-good lift, a community group at Guthrie Green is prepping free Off the Cuff concerts starting April 29 with Gillian Welch and David Rawlings—Tulsa World highlights the vibe.

  • Tulsa Local Pulse: Tax Cuts, Big Projects, and Community Spirit
    2026/03/29
    Good morning, this is Tulsa Local Pulse for Sunday, March 29.

    We start with breaking developments from city hall that hit close to home. Tulsa County Commissioner Lonnie Sims warns that looming state property tax cuts could slash revenue without a replacement plan, calling it catastrophic for our roads, schools, and emergency services. National Today reports leaders are pushing for balance to avoid service cuts affecting our daily lives. Meanwhile, costs for the south Tulsa dam and pedestrian bridge project have soared to between 109 million and over 234 million dollars, with the mayors office pegging it at 180 million plus maintenance funds, per the latest updates.

    Shifting to our community vibe, hundreds of us joined the nationwide No Kings protest yesterday at Dream Keepers Park, with politicians, musicians, and comedians rallying alongside families making signs. Over in Inola, residents packed Inola High School for an open house on the new smelter project at Tulsa Ports, getting straight answers from company officials.

    On sports, our Tulsa Oilers hosted the Trois-Rivieres Lions last night at the BOK Center for Military Night with car flag giveaways, keeping the energy high. University of Tulsa softball crushed Memphis 14 to 3 at the Tigers Softball Complex, with Brinly Maples earning the win.

    New business buzz includes the Aloft Tulsa Downtown freshening up its spaces at 200 Civic Center.

  • Tulsa Data Center Moratorium and Constitutional Convention Vote Shape City's Future
    2026/03/28
    Good morning, this is Tulsa Local Pulse for Saturday, March 28. We start with breaking news from City Hall, where the Tulsa City Council just imposed a nine-month moratorium on new data center developments until 2027, giving us time to assess impacts on our neighborhoods and power grid. This pauses most projects but spares east Tulsas Project Anthem at 21304 East 11th Street, where locals three miles away are voicing concerns over a proposed 375-acre expansion. The Metropolitan Area Planning Commission recommended delaying rezoning from agricultural to industrial, with a key hearing set for April 1 at City Hall, so residents can speak up before it hits council.

    Shifting to state matters affecting us, Oklahoma lawmakers, led by House Speaker Kyle Hilbert from Bristow, are advancing House Joint Resolution 1089 for a constitutional convention vote, mandated every 20 years. If approved on the November ballot, top officials like the governor and House Speaker would lead reforms starting January 2027, wrapping up by May 2028 after gathering public input. Senate Pro Tem Lonnie Paxton calls it conceptual now, unlikely to scrap our current constitution entirely.

    On a brighter note, we celebrate the grand opening of a new inclusive playground at Bales Park, designed for kids with disabilities to play alongside everyone, making family outings more accessible right here in our city.

    Sports fans, gear up for FC Tulsa versus Phoenix Rising FC tonight at 7 p.m. at ONEOK Field. Box office opens at 5, gates at 6, with 83 Uniteds tailgate and bake sale kicking off at 4 p.m. at Archer and Elgin, complete with free food for members. Parking is eight bucks prepaid at the BOK lot on East Archer.

    Weather today brings mild sunshine with highs near 68 degrees, perfect for outdoor plans, though a light evening breeze might cool things off. Expect the same tomorrow before scattered showers roll in Monday.

    In jobs and real estate, our market stays steady with about 2,500 openings posted last week, many in tech and healthcare, while median home prices hover around 285,000 dollars, up slightly from last month.

    Quick school update: Tulsa Police arrested a teen at Nathan Hale High for bringing a stolen loaded gun to campus, reminding us to stay vigilant. No other major crimes in the past day.

    Mark your calendars for the Tulsa Regional Chambers Mosaic Monthly Meeting on April 1 at 1 West Third Street, diving into building wealth through careers and benefits, free with registration.

    And a feel-good story: Local families are already flocking to that Bales Park playground, fostering friendships across abilities.

  • Tulsa City Council Pauses Data Centers; Rogers State Celebrates New President
    2026/03/27
    Good morning, this is Tulsa Local Pulse for Friday, March 27.

    We start with big news from City Hall. Tulsa City Council unanimously approved a moratorium on new data center construction through the end of the year. Councilor Laura Bellis led the push, citing concerns over noise and zoning fit near neighborhoods like those around Riverside Drive. This pause lets our planning office study impacts while Project Anthem phases one and two continue at their site off 71st Street. Nineteen speakers backed it, saying it protects our daily lives from unchecked growth.

    Shifting to education, we celebrate Rogers State University today at 1 p.m. with the presidential investiture of Dr. Don Raleigh at First Baptist Church Claremore, just a short drive from Tulsa. Its a milestone for our local college community.

    Weather-wise, mild temps in the low 60s greet us this morning with partly cloudy skies, perfect for outdoor plans around Gathering Place. No major impacts today, but watch for scattered showers tomorrow afternoon.

    On the business front, no major openings or closings, but real estate stays hot with about 1,200 homes listed citywide, median prices around 290,000 dollars. Jobs are steady, with roughly 5,000 openings in tech and energy sectors per recent postings.

    Crime report from the past day stays calm: Tulsa Police arrested two suspects in a vehicle theft near 61st and Sheridan, recovering the car safely. No active public safety alerts.

    Quick sports note: Tulsa Union High School boys basketball wrapped regionals with a strong win last night. Schools report solid achievements too, like Booker T. Washingtons robotics team qualifying for nationals.

  • Tulsa Pauses Data Centers, Schools Cut Jobs, Community Rallies for Change
    2026/03/26
    Good morning, this is Tulsa Local Pulse for Thursday, March 26.

    We start with breaking news from City Hall that affects us all. Yesterday, Tulsa City Council voted unanimously to pause new data center construction for nine months. This comes after a rally at Dream Keepers Park where folks voiced worries about water and power strains from these massive projects near East 11th Street and South 193rd Avenue in east Tulsa. It exempts ongoing work like Project Anthem and Project Clydesdale in north Tulsa, giving us time to review zoning rules that impact our daily resources.

    Shifting to our schools, Tulsa Public Schools announced cuts to about 90 positions—50 jobs and 42 vacancies—to tackle declining enrollment and budget squeezes. Superintendent Dr. Ebony Johnson says it saves $3.5 million, starting with admin roles, but current staff stay through June 30 while we recruit teachers. This hits home as families plan for next year.

    On a brighter note in jobs, our market shows steady demand, with around 5,000 openings listed locally last week, many in healthcare and tech near Riverside Drive.

    Real estate stays hot, with median home prices hovering near $280,000, up 4 percent, drawing buyers to south Tulsa neighborhoods.

    Weather-wise, mild temps in the low 60s today with scattered showers could dampen outdoor plans, so grab that umbrella for errands along Route 66. Outlook calls for clearing skies by evening.

    Sports fans, catch the Tulsa Golden Hurricane softball team battling Oklahoma State Cowgirls this afternoon—tune in for live highlights.

    New business buzz includes a fresh coffee shop opening on Cherry Street, boosting our cultural scene with live music nights ahead.

    Looking ahead, join the community cleanup at River Parks Saturday, and dont miss the Tulsa Arts District First Friday events tomorrow evening.

    Quick school shoutout: Booker T. Washington High School debate team took first at regionals.

    Crime report from the past day stays calm—no major incidents, just a routine arrest near 71st and Memorial for theft, with police urging vigilance on public safety.

    And a feel-good story: Neighbors rallied to repair playgrounds at Kendall-Whittier Elementary, strengthening our community bonds.
