 Good morning, this is El Paso Local Pulse for Saturday, December 20. We kick off with big news from city hall that hits close to home. Yesterday, our leaders from El Paso, Dona Ana, and Otero counties launched the Vision Zero Committee right downtown, unveiling the Borderplex Safe Mobility Plan to wipe out traffic deaths and serious injuries. KFOX14 reports theyre targeting high-risk spots with better stoplights, roundabouts, and crash data analysis, funded by federal Safe Streets money, with meetings starting in January. State Sen. César Blanco calls it a team effort from officials to law enforcement, and we all feel safer already on streets like Montana Avenue.

Shifting to greener horizons, the city just submitted its Regional Climate Action Plan to the EPA, aiming to cut greenhouse gases in half by 2030 and hit net-zero by 2050. SPArks Partnerships details steps like zero-emission buses, solar panels on public buildings near the Ysleta Port of Entry, more bike paths, and drought-proofing with expanded wetlands along the Rio Grande. It means cooler neighborhoods, cleaner air, and resilient homes for us.

Transit gets a boost too. CBS4 says El Paso County scored a 12.8 million dollar federal grant for the first headquarters of our El Paso Transit Authority, rising by Windermere Avenue and Cherrington Street near Montwood Heights Park. Itll house operations for 36 buses, making rides more reliable and sustainable starting with free service on all routes tomorrow.

Weather today stays mild with highs near 60 under partly cloudy skies, perfect for outdoor errands, though a chilly evening breeze might slow evening walks downtown. Expect the same tomorrow with no major impacts.

New business buzz includes that ETA grant sparking growth in Far East El Paso. No major closings, but watch for EV charging hubs popping up soon.

Community events ahead: Join the MPO conference follow-ups next week, and free transit rides kick off Monday. Local schools shine with UTEP wrapping fall sports strong.

Crime in the past day stays low key, with El Paso police reporting just routine patrols and no major incidents or alerts around Franklin High or the bridges.

For a feel-good lift, were rooting for our transit riders getting free wheels just in time for holiday travels.
