Our top story today continues to be the debate at City Hall over the Stop the Violence fund. Yesterday, City Council voted unanimously to support the fund, which provides resources for community groups working in neighborhoods most affected by violence. Emotions ran high at the meeting as councilmembers worked to assure the public that no one is raiding the fund, and that transparency and accountability measures are being strengthened. Council member Khari Mosley emphasized that the goal is to keep this money working for the city’s most vulnerable residents, while other members called for calm and focus as they continue to shape the city’s violence-prevention efforts. Meanwhile, an internal investigation is ongoing into a recent incident where the Sergeant at Arms requested backup from the sheriff’s department during a previous meeting, which many now agree was a miscommunication rather than a sign of trouble.
Over in Green Tree, firefighters responded to a major blaze along Noblestown Road yesterday, where flames destroyed two apartments and caused damage to several businesses, including an auto repair shop. No serious injuries have been reported, but the cleanup and rebuilding process will take time, and the road remains partially blocked this morning.
Turning to safety, there’s an ongoing crackdown targeting aggressive driving across the city and surrounding areas, running until August 17. Police and PennDOT ask us all to stay alert, especially as we head into summer events.
On the weather front, we’re waking up to muggy air and scattered showers, with a chance of isolated storms in the afternoon. That could impact outdoor plans, so keep an umbrella handy if you’re heading to Market Square or planning an evening walk along the North Shore. The forecast calls for similar sticky weather through the rest of the week.
For those following Pittsburgh’s job market, there’s fresh optimism as city officials announced the launch of a new open data platform called Parcels N’At. This aims to improve public access to local property data, making it easier for small business owners, home buyers, and renters to find what they need.
On the business beat, foodies can look forward to the opening of Shake Shack at Ross Park Mall later this month. In other retail news, Amazon’s Prime Day is underway, and local experts say this is the week to snag savings both online and in many Pittsburgh stores.
In sports, the world’s best golfers are taking on Oakmont Country Club for the 125th U.S. Open. Oakmont’s legendary greens are challenging players, and large crowds are turning out despite the rain. Locally, high school athletes are gearing up for regional tournaments, and the Riverhounds are prepping for an important home match this weekend.
As for community feel-good stories, City Mission continues to serve thousands of meals and provide shelter for those in need, reminding us of the tireless work happening every day across Pittsburgh.
Quick safety update for listeners—another smoke shop in Brookline was burglarized overnight. Police are urging shop owners and residents to keep an eye out and report any suspicious activity. No injuries have been reported, and investigators are following up on leads.
Before we go, a shout-out to local students: Carnegie Mellon’s robotics team recently earned a second chance to send their work to the moon, showing once again the kind of talent and innovation that thrives right here.
