 Good morning, this is Tulsa Local Pulse for Sunday, October 26.

We wake up today to calm early fall temperatures. Expect a chilly, gray start in the low 50s, with a chance of scattered showers in the afternoon. Grab a jacket if you’re heading out to one of our weekend events, but the weather should hold steady for most plans across Tulsa.

Turning to breaking developments from City Hall, the city wraps up its final Community Conversations event tomorrow evening at the Herman and Kate Kaiser YMCA on South Columbus Avenue. City leaders, including Mayor Nichols, are inviting neighbors to discuss pressing issues from affordable housing to the ongoing challenges of homelessness and steadying neighborhood stability. The city continues to focus on these quality-of-life concerns. Just this week, Lieutenant Governor Matt Pinnell visited Tulsa and reaffirmed the state’s push for more affordable housing. He assured residents that increased housing support and legislative measures are being discussed, though the looming threat of a federal government shutdown could impact SNAP food benefits for many Oklahomans, including here in Tulsa.

For those following tribal politics, there’s a heated rematch shaping up for the Muscogee Nation’s Tvlse District runoff election. Former councilman Lucian Tiger the Third and incumbent Leonard Gouge are bringing new energy to this November’s race. Issues of tribal sovereignty, land ownership along Highway 75, and Freedmen citizenship are fueling community debate, especially with early voting two weekends away and voter registration closing soon.

Real estate watchers continue to see steady activity, though concerns about affordable housing remain at the forefront of city and state agendas. On the jobs front, local employers report several hundred openings posted last week, especially in healthcare, education, and skilled trades, with hiring fairs scheduled downtown later this week.

Some business changes to note: several new restaurants and cafes are opening their doors in the Blue Dome District and along Cherry Street this weekend, drawing early crowds and giving a welcome boost to local nightlife. We have not heard of any notable closures so far this month.

Now let’s head to the sports scene. The Tulsa Oilers dropped their home opener last night at the BOK Center, falling four to one against the Tahoe Knight Monsters. They’re back on the ice this afternoon, with another shot at a win in front of the home crowd. At the collegiate level, Tulsa fans are still talking about yesterday’s football thriller against Temple. Despite a valiant overtime effort, our Golden Hurricane came up just short, losing thirty-eight to thirty-seven. Meanwhile, local tennis fans can catch the finals of the American College Individual Championships at the Michael D. Case Center on campus. Tayla Wilmot from Tulsa powered through in her singles match, keeping the hometown spirit high.

In schools, Daniel Webster High celebrated an undefeated regular season for their girls volleyball team and Union High’s robotics club took second place at the state qualifier, continuing Tulsa’s strong academic and athletic streak.

Looking ahead, Halloween festivities are ramping up. The Gathering Place is hosting family activities all day, from costume parades to pumpkin carving. Tonight, Guthrie Green features the annual Movie Under the Stars, so don’t forget your blanket and umbrella.

Regarding safety in our city, Tulsa Police report a quiet night with only one significant incident near 61st and Lewis. Officers responded quickly to an altercation at a convenience store. No major injuries were reported and one person is in custody. Patrols have been increased around local shopping centers ahead of the busy holiday week.

To close on a feel-good note, a group of Tulsa volunteers spent their Saturday morning cleaning up the Arkansas Riverbank near Turkey Mountain. The group removed over sixty bags of trash, reminding us of the pride and care we share for our hometown.
