概要

 Good morning, this is El Paso Local Pulse for March 3, 2026. We start with todays big story from City Hall, where our City Council just voted to appeal the Texas Gas Service rate hike that could add about four dollars to average monthly bills and up to eleven for larger homes on Green Valley Lane and beyond. Mayor Renard Johnson says they are fighting hard because we deserve a fair deal without carrying statewide costs, and they are also seeking a rehearing on the El Paso Electric increase that might bump bills by around fourteen dollars. These moves protect our wallets right here in the Borderland.

Over in the Lower Valley, El Paso police are investigating an unknown problem along the canal behind homes on the 7500 block of Green Valley Lane since early this morning. Crimes Against Persons detectives are on scene, and we will keep you posted as details emerge, staying mindful of our neighbors safety.

Its Election Day for the March primary, listeners. Some poll pads glitched this morning at spots like Benito Martinez Elementary and Hanks High School, but voting machines work fine with manual check-ins. Head to any site from seven a.m. to seven p.m., like UTEP or the Enrique Moreno County Courthouse, to make your voice heard.

Weather stays mild today with sunny skies and highs near seventy, perfect for outdoor plans, though a light breeze off Franklin Mountains might cool evenings. Expect the same tomorrow before scattered clouds roll in.

On the cultural front, Grupo Duelo brings their Gravedad Tour to the Rio Grande Theater in November, promising high-energy corridos for us music lovers.

Upcoming, catch the City Council meeting wrap-up events this week at the Plaza Theatre, and dont miss community cleanups at Memorial Park Saturday.

Local Hanks High School hoops team notched a win last night, boosting their playoff hopes.

In jobs, we see about two thousand openings in healthcare and logistics around the airport area. Real estate heats up too, with median home prices holding steady near three hundred thousand dollars in the Upper Valley.

A quick crime note: authorities arrested a woman for drunk driving near Sparks with a six-year-old in the car after a crash, reminding us to drive safe.

And for a feel-good lift, volunteers at the Eastside Senior Citizens Center served over two hundred free meals yesterday, strengthening our community bonds.
