Aaron Olver reports:
On November 20, we celebrated a milestone that represents far more than a groundbreaking—it marks the next phase in University Research Park’s evolution into a thriving innovation district. 
Element Collective, a 197-unit workforce housing development by the Mandel Group, is the first major residential project in our park’s 40-year history. This isn’t just about adding apartments. It’s about creating the live-work-play environment that innovation districts require to flourish.

Ann Marie Shambaugh reports:
Kevin Johnson, 54, has been charged with four felony counts of possession of depictions of minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct. He worked as a lead pastor of Impact Church in Pasco and as a paraeducator at Cottonwood Elementary School in nearby Kennewick, according to his Linkedin account. 
Johnson pleaded not guilty during an April 10 court appearance, according to NonStop Local, a network of NBC affiliates in the area. During the hearing, prosecutors said they had identified two victims.

"But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh."  (Galatians 5:16)

Wisconsin 2026 elections: Wisconsin Transphobia Queen Barbara Dittrich looking to represent the 99th Assembly district for a 5th term

 
Redistricting shifted the boundaries of the 99th north and west, but not enough to draw Babs out of the district.    

Maps and election results:  Ballotpedia
Headline:  WisPolitics, 4/16/2026

Babs' announcement is the usual political blather, not worthy of being excerpted.

Babs will be able to serve as long as she wants in this deep-red district.
