Good morning, this is Tulsa Local Pulse for Thursday, December eighteenth, and we are catching up together on what is shaping our day around town.

We start with city business. The Tulsa Metropolitan Area Planning Commission meets at City Hall on East Second Street, and on the agenda are several rezonings and new subdivision plats that touch daily life. Projects like Settlers Hill near East 31st Street and 177th East Avenue and Battle Creek Park Phase Four out by East 41st and 152nd East Avenue move ahead, which means we can expect more homes and traffic in those areas in the next few years. There is also a proposed assisted living facility near West Edison and North 27th West Avenue, part of the ongoing conversation about how we care for our older neighbors.

Weather wise, we wake up to a cool, gray December morning in Tulsa, with temperatures sitting in the 40s and climbing into the 50s this afternoon. Skies stay mostly cloudy, but any rain chances are light and spotty, so school pickups, lunch runs downtown, and evening events along Riverside Drive should be fine. Tonight we dip back into the 30s, with a similar pattern tomorrow, so we plan on a jacket but no big storms in the short term.

In the job and real estate picture, new plats on the east and north sides of town signal that a few hundred new lots could hit the market over the next couple of years, and that means steady construction work and more service jobs around those corridors. For renters, state lawmakers are again talking about eviction reform after new research tied high absenteeism in Tulsa Public Schools to families losing housing, so we may see proposals that change how quickly families can be forced out of apartments.

On the business front, we continue to see small locally owned shops filling in older strip centers along South Peoria and East 11th Street on Route 66, while a few national chains on 71st Street quietly close or shrink hours, a reminder that holiday shopping dollars matter to which storefronts stay lit.

In community life, we look ahead to holiday concerts and markets this weekend. We have symphony and church performances downtown, pop up makers along the Arts District near Guthrie Green, and neighborhood light tours from Brookside to Owasso, giving us plenty of low cost ways to get out of the house.

On the school front, several Tulsa Public Schools and suburban teams wrap up their pre holiday basketball schedules tonight, with rivalry games at high school gyms along Harvard, Yale, and Memorial. Local coaches say attendance has been strong, and student sections are giving these kids a real home court feel.

Sports fans also have an eye up the turnpike: Oklahoma State men’s basketball is back home in Stillwater tonight facing Kansas City, trying to bounce back from their first loss after a nine and one start. That is a short drive from Tulsa and a big regional draw.

As for crime and safety, Tulsa police officers report a typical midweek pattern overnight, with property crimes and a few arrests tied to car break ins near apartment complexes along East 21st and South Sheridan. Investigators continue to urge us to lock vehicles, remove visible valuables, and use porch cameras where we can. There are no new major citywide alerts this morning, and first responders say most serious calls overnight were handled quickly.

We close with a feel good note. Volunteers along the Arkansas River trail near 21st Street and The Gathering Place spent yesterday picking up trash and hanging simple holiday lights along the path. Several families out walking said the lights make evening strolls feel safer and more welcoming, and it is a small reminder that when we show up for our shared spaces, our city feels a little more like home.
