Good morning, Spokane. Here's your local news at a glance for Monday, the 24th of March.

CULTURE NEWS

  • In 1940, Mrs. Howard C. Paulsen and local society women started a Bundles for Britain chapter and opened a thrift shop at 926 W. Riverside Ave to collect clothing and linens for British relief. By 1942, the shop changed its name to the Victory Shop to support U.S. forces before closing in October 1945.  The Spokesman-Review

GOVERNMENT NEWS

  • Spokane City Council will host a free community event on March 27 at Spokane Central Library from 5:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. — urban planning expert Peter Kageyama will share ideas on how to help the city grow.  KXLY
  • On Sunday, dozens of Spokane mail carriers rallied in support of the USPS amid concerns that privatization could harm rural service — union leaders warned that a shift to a for-profit model would threaten the agency’s universal delivery mandate and worsen its $9.5 billion losses reported in 2024.  KXLY
  • At Tuesday’s Spokane Valley City Council meeting, members advanced a proposal by a 6—1 vote to ask voters in the fall to approve a 0.1% sales tax that would raise about $2.6 million annually for police services amid rising costs and plans for seven new positions. The council scheduled the measure’s first reading on April 1 and will set the election date before the state’s filing deadline to avoid a 1% property tax increase that has not been used for 17 years.  The Spokesman-Review

SPORTS NEWS

  • Spokane is preparing to host the upcoming rounds of the NCAA Women's Basketball Tournament — an event that will bring top college teams to local arenas — as the city shows its passion for basketball.  KHQ
