  • Résumé

  • Good morning, this is Minneapolis Local Pulse for Thursday, February 13, 2025. We're starting with some breaking news from City Hall. The Minneapolis City Council is set to vote today on a plan to temporarily pause $1.2 million in funding meant for violence prevention efforts. This decision has sparked controversy and we'll be keeping an eye on how it unfolds[3].

    In other news, the city's police reform efforts are showing promising signs. An independent evaluator's first report indicates a strong foundation in these efforts, which is a positive step forward for our community[1].

    Moving on to community events, there's plenty to look forward to this weekend. The Ultimate RV Show is kicking off today at the Minneapolis Convention Center and will run through Sunday. If you're in the market for a new RV or just want to explore, this is a great opportunity to check out over 300 new and used models[4].

    For those looking for something a bit more adventurous, the Minneapolis Flyfest Ski Jumping Competition is happening on Saturday at Bush Lake Ski Jump in Bloomington. Watch past and future Olympians soar through the air under stadium lights, and enjoy food trucks and a fire pit to warm up[4].

    In cultural news, the February Art Fair is coming to the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum in Chaska this weekend. Explore over 45 vendors offering everything from paintings to jewelry, all with a botanical touch[4].

    On the sports front, we're gearing up for some exciting events. The City of Lakes Loppet Winter Festival recently concluded, but if you missed it, there are still plenty of winter activities to enjoy around the city[2].

    In real estate, there are no major updates to report today, but we'll be keeping an eye on any significant developments.

    For job seekers, there are currently around 200 job openings in various sectors across the city. We recommend checking out local job boards for the latest opportunities.

    Weather-wise, today is expected to be chilly but clear, making it a great day to get out and enjoy some of the winter events happening around the city.

    In local school achievements, we're proud to see our students excelling in various competitions and sports. We'll be highlighting some of these achievements in future updates.

    For a feel-good community story, we're shining a light on the Art Shanty village at Bde Unma/Lake Harriet. This unique event brings together art, community, and winter fun, and is definitely worth checking out[2].

    Finally, in today's crime report, there have been no significant incidents reported in the past 24 hours. However, we always encourage our listeners to stay vigilant and report any suspicious activity to the authorities.

    This has been Minneapolis Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
