We start off with an update from our weather team, as a heat advisory remains in effect across the Borderland today. Temperatures could soar between 103 and 108 degrees, so let's make sure we stay hydrated, check on our neighbors, and look out for pets and young children. If you have outdoor plans, try to keep them for early morning or evening when it's cooler.
In breaking local news, the El Paso County Commissioners this week approved a legal services amendment but postponed discussion on a major refinery permit. The move, reported yesterday, comes as the county remains tied up in legal battles over state policies that impact us directly. Just yesterday, a federal appeals court kept Texas’s controversial S.B. 4 immigration law blocked for now. El Paso County Attorney Christina Sanchez reaffirmed the county's commitment to opposing measures she says would divert law enforcement from key local priorities.
Turning to City Hall, El Paso City Council just approved a $2.8 million technology modernization project with Dell and Spectrum Technologies. That means upgrades in the city’s digital infrastructure are coming, promising faster services and improved security in local government systems.
In our courts, new records released this week show that defense attorneys representing the convicted Walmart mass shooter have been paid a combined $1.3 million in taxpayer funds across both federal and state cases. El Paso County reports over $6 million spent in total on the defense and prosecution since 2019.
Congresswoman Veronica Escobar is speaking out after being denied entry to the ICE facility on Montana Avenue, despite having filed the required notice. She says oversight is essential, especially after recent federal audits and reports of human rights violations at the center.
In the job and real estate market, there are new openings at several eastside logistics firms, and home prices remain steady but high, averaging just under $260,000 for a single-family home this month. That’s still outpacing last year, but inventory is slowly growing.
Community events are heating up, too. The 45th season of Viva El Paso returns tonight at McKelligon Canyon Theatre. Across town, Movies at the Park features Sonic the Hedgehog 3 at Veterans Park on Salem Drive. The El Fresco Music Series brings both Latin and country rhythms to the evening skyline, and Summer Splash Bash offers games and swimming for families at Galatzan Park. Sports lovers can catch the El Paso Chihuahuas facing Las Vegas at Southwest University Park this weekend. Our El Paso Locomotive FC heads to Sacramento tomorrow after a tough 2-1 loss to San Antonio last week. Still, the Locos are chasing the conference leader and have clear playoff hopes.
On a lighter note, kudos to Jefferson High’s robotics team, who took home top honors at the statewide summer STEM challenge, making us very proud.
For our crime and safety update, things have been relatively calm overnight, with no major incidents reported. El Paso Police remind everyone to lock vehicles and report suspicious activity as we move into the busy weekend.
