Good morning, this is El Paso Local Pulse for Monday, November 24. We hope everyone’s feeling ready for the week ahead. As our city wakes up, let’s get right into what’s shaping our community today.

We start with breaking news from the police: over the weekend, officers responded to a shooting on the 200 block of Lombardy, leaving one person injured. The investigation remains active, and police are asking anyone with information to come forward. Separately, the community breathed a sigh of relief after authorities found 75-year-old Primitivo Chavez, who had gone missing from a care facility on Forney Lane. His safe return ends a tense few days for his family.

Turning to city hall, the conversation about our rising water bills is heating up. El Paso Water has proposed a rate hike, and if approved, most homeowners could see their usual bill rise by around 7 percent in the coming months. The city council is reviewing options, weighing how this could impact families already feeling squeezed by higher costs across the board.

On our roads, the I-10 widening project continues this week, with lane closures and detours especially between Mesa and Redd. Plan on extra travel time if your commute takes you through West El Paso, and remember that wet weather recently led to a fatal crash in Far East El Paso County. Please drive carefully, particularly along the old farm roads and areas near Horizon.

And speaking of weather, we expect cool and partly cloudy skies throughout the day with a high around 59. Recent rain has slicked up roadways, so keep an eye out for puddles and drive slow through standing water. Tomorrow should be a bit warmer and clearer, making for better conditions for any afternoon plans.

Our job market is holding steady as the holiday rush fuels seasonal hiring, especially in retail and hospitality. New postings are up about 5 percent from last month. In real estate, the Gateway Hotel on Montana is getting a makeover and will soon reopen as a La Quinta by Wyndham, adding dozens of jobs and modernized rooms to the area.

Looking ahead, WinterFest is brightening downtown as the Star on the Mountain shines blue. The Giving Machines are now in San Jacinto Plaza, where we can donate everything from meals to clothing for those in need. Texas International Fashion Week is dazzling at the Convention Center through Wednesday, featuring both local and international designers. And don’t forget St. Matthew’s Under the Stars this Friday—classic cars, live music, and plenty of food on Pebble Hills.

On the sports front, the city is buzzing after the UTEP women’s basketball team pulled off an overtime win to stay undefeated. While some high school teams bowed out of the playoffs, the energy and spirit remain high. We also celebrate dancer Armando Eleazar, whose journey from Juarez to El Paso led him to perform in a film alongside Jennifer Lopez—a reminder of the talent blossoming right here at home.

Finally, for a feel-good story, EP Dentistry for Kids launched a ten thousand dollar giveaway for local nonprofits, highlighting our city’s tradition of giving back.
