Community Spotlight: January 2026

2026 started off with a lot of news, including several high-profile stories taking place on the Westside. From a shooting outside a funeral service to anti-ICE demonstrations outside a warehouse rumored to become an ICE detention facility, January brought quite a bit of attention to the Westside. At the same time, smaller businesses continue to expand and the city continues to work on improving West-East transportation.

Several of these things are featured in this month’s Community Spotlight.
