    KC Local Pulse: Job Growth, Weather Updates, Community Events and More
    2025/01/08
    Good morning, this is Kansas City Local Pulse for Wednesday, January 8, 2025.

    We're starting off with some breaking news. After severe winter weather, the Unified Government offices are reopening today at 8 AM, so if you have any business to attend to, you can head on over[5].

    Moving on to the job market, we have some positive news. The Kansas City area has seen consistent employment growth, with total nonfarm employment increasing by 19,500 over the year in August 2024, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. This represents a 1.7% increase, which is higher than the national average of 1.5%[4]. Currently, there are over 538 job openings in Kansas City, MO, on Indeed.com, including positions at top local employers like the City of Kansas City and various healthcare organizations[3].

    In terms of the unemployment rate, it's expected to stabilize at around 3.1% in the coming years, which is a slight uptick but still indicates a healthy labor market[1].

    Shifting gears to real estate, we don't have any major updates today, but we'll keep an eye on any significant developments in the commercial and residential property sectors.

    From City Hall, we have an update on the recent winter storm. The city is working to clear roads and ensure public safety. If you're planning to venture out today, be sure to check the latest road conditions and weather forecasts.

    Speaking of weather, today is expected to be chilly, with temperatures gradually warming up throughout the week. Make sure to bundle up if you're heading out.

    In new business activity, we don't have any major openings or closings to report today, but we'll keep you updated on any significant changes in the local business landscape.

    Looking ahead to community events, there are several activities planned for the next few days, including cultural events and community gatherings. Be sure to check local listings for more information.

    In local school achievements, we don't have any specific updates today, but we'll highlight any notable achievements or sports results in future broadcasts.

    On a feel-good note, today is David Bowie's birthday, and local radio station 90.1 FM KKFI is celebrating with a special tribute during the Wednesday MidDay Medley show[2].

    Finally, in today's crime report, we don't have any significant incidents to report from the past 24 hours. We'll continue to monitor public safety and bring you any important updates.

    This has been Kansas City Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.

  • "Extreme Cold Hits KC, Job Growth, Real Estate Developments, and Community Events"

    "Extreme Cold Hits KC, Job Growth, Real Estate Developments, and Community Events"
    2025/01/06
    Good morning, this is Kansas City Local Pulse for Monday, January 6, 2025. We're starting the week with a look at the latest developments in our city.

    First off, let's talk about the weather. An extreme cold snap is hitting our area after a blizzard moved out of Lawrence, causing closures and hazardous travel conditions. We urge everyone to stay safe and avoid travel unless absolutely necessary. The Lawrence Police Department summed it up well, saying, "Everything outside sucks. It's miserable out. It's windy, it's cold, and the roads are terrible."

    Moving on to the job market, we have some positive news. The Kansas City area has seen consistent employment growth, with total nonfarm employment increasing by 19,500 over the year in August 2024, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. This represents a 1.7 percent increase, outpacing the national rate of 1.5 percent. Major hiring announcements include positions at the City of Kansas City, with several full-time jobs available in various departments. New job postings from top local employers can be found on Indeed.com, with over 600 jobs listed for 2025, including positions at Hill's Pet Nutrition and the Aviation Department.

    In real estate news, Lenexa has set a $208 million blueprint for growth, including road projects and a new pool. This development is expected to boost the local economy and create new job opportunities. We'll keep an eye on this project and provide updates as it progresses.

    From city hall, we have updates on decisions that affect daily life. The Kansas City area is reflecting on the life of President Jimmy Carter, with local leaders and organizations sharing their thoughts on his legacy. Additionally, a local Baptist church has paid off nearly $2 million in mortgage debt in under 20 years, a remarkable achievement that showcases community resilience.

    The weather is certainly impacting today's activities and events. With the extreme cold, many outdoor events have been canceled or postponed. However, there are still plenty of indoor activities to enjoy. The SevenDays Kindness Action Scholarship application is open for high school seniors, and the Kansas City Chiefs are gearing up for their next game.

    In new business activity, we have several openings and closings to report. Atomic Cowboy, home to Denver Biscuit Company and Fat Sully's Pizza, is hiring servers for the winter season. On the other hand, some businesses are closing temporarily due to the weather conditions.

    Upcoming community events include the Kansas City area's "The Longest Night" vigil, honoring the 168 lives lost to homicide in 2024. This event is a somber reminder of the importance of community safety and support.

    In local school achievements, we have some exciting news. Kisa Caruthers was recognized as the Chiefs 2024 Inspire Change Changemaker Award winner, a testament to her dedication to making a positive impact in our community.

    Finally, in today's crime report, we have a few incidents to share. Unfortunately, there have been several homicides in the Kansas City area, with 168 victims remembered at "The Longest Night" vigil. We urge everyone to stay vigilant and report any suspicious activity to the authorities.

    This has been Kansas City Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates. Stay safe and warm out there.

  • "Snowstorm Hits KC, Job Growth, Lenexa Development, City Hall Closures, and Community Kindness"

    "Snowstorm Hits KC, Job Growth, Lenexa Development, City Hall Closures, and Community Kindness"
    2025/01/06
    Good morning, this is Kansas City Local Pulse for January 6, 2025. We're starting off the week with a significant snowstorm that's expected to impact our area, causing disruptions to daily life and city operations. The city is working non-stop to prepare for the snowstorm, with crews working 24/7 to clear roads and keep residents safe[2].

    In terms of job market updates, Kansas City continues to show resilience and growth. The labor market is expected to retain and attract workers, with employment numbers on an upward trajectory. By 2025, employment is forecasted to reach 1,156,343, with the labor force expanding to 1,192,276. This growth is complemented by new job postings from top local employers, including positions in healthcare, technology, and customer service[1][3].

    Moving on to real estate, there are notable developments in Lenexa, with a $208 million blueprint for growth that includes road projects and a new pool. However, we don't have specific updates on median home prices and inventory levels for this week[4].

    From City Hall, non-essential city services will operate remotely from Sunday through Tuesday due to the snowstorm. City Hall will be closed to the public on Monday and Tuesday, and committee meetings will be held virtually. Residents can use the MyKCMO app to report snow and ice issues and reschedule appointments[2].

    The weather is certainly having an impact on today's activities and events. The snowstorm is expected to bring extremely low temperatures, and residents are advised to stay safe and indoors. The Kansas City Fire Department will respond normally to all calls for service, but with reduced personnel on scene for less severe calls. Community centers are open to provide warmth and shelter for those in need[2].

    In terms of new business activity, there are no major announcements or openings to report today. However, local businesses are working hard to keep residents safe and warm during the snowstorm.

    Looking ahead to community events, there are several virtual committee meetings scheduled for January 7, including the Transportation, Operations & Infrastructure Committee and the Finance, Governance, and Public Safety Committee. Residents can attend these meetings online and stay connected with city updates[2].

    In local school achievements, there's no specific news to report today. However, we do want to mention the SevenDays Kindness Action Scholarship application, which is now open for high school seniors[4].

    For a feel-good community story, we want to highlight the kindness of a local Baptist church that paid off nearly $2 million in mortgage debt in under 20 years[4].

    Finally, in today's crime report, there are no significant incidents or arrests to report from the past 24 hours. However, we do want to mention the "The Longest Night" vigil, which honored 168 lives lost to homicide in the Kansas City area in 2024[4].

    This has been Kansas City Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
