Volunteers assisting Habitat for Humanity
SUMMARY: Volunteers from the Keller Williams real estate group in Hattisburg are helping the Bobby Moore family build their new home through Habitat for Humanity. This is part of the company's annual Red Day event, where over 150,000 associates come together to give back to their communities. This project is the 72nd for the Pine Belt Habitat for Humanity, with volunteers working on various tasks at the home site. The Warehouser volunteers will be framing the roof of the home, with the goal of helping the Moore family, including two grandchildren, become homeowners. This initiative has been a labor of love for all involved.
Volunteer groups are stepping up in Hattiesburg to help a deserving family get a new home, through the Habitat for Humanity organization.

SUMMARY: A survey indicates that prices for holiday staples such as hamburger meat, baked beans, and potato salad are at a record high this year. Shoppers at a Jackson grocery store noted price increases of about 30% from last year. The cost of a typical July 4th meal has risen by 5%, according to the American Farm Bureau, with current costs reaching around $71 for ten people, up from just under $68 last year. Consumers are adapting by prioritizing necessities over wants, and the rising costs are particularly challenging for those on a budget.

SUMMARY: The expansion of the Capitol Complex Improvement District (CCID) in Jackson, effective today, includes changes to 911 call handling and police patrols. The expansion began on July 1, giving state officers more responsibilities in a larger portion of Jackson. Capitol Police now have primary responsibility for calls in the CCID, with the city's dispatch center routing 911 calls to them until the state's own center is operational. Both city and state agencies are establishing Memorandums of Understanding. They aim to maintain a four-minute response time for emergencies. The state is also finalizing its court system for handling CCID-related cases, which Hinds County currently manages. Further expansions and adjustments are anticipated.
Expect to see a larger law enforcement presence throughout Jackson
