Business, economics, and what is coming next in Jackson.

The Jackson Wire · Members

Pipeline Pro

The metro's money decisions, before they are announced.

The Wire reads the council packets, the bond resolutions, the permits, the federal award records, and the court dockets every day. Pipeline Pro sends you what they say the hour they say it, and the calendar of what is coming, so you are never the last to know that the vote is Tuesday.

A sample of this week's calendar

  1. McNair Davis Planetarium expected to reopen under Mississippi Museum of Art management.

  2. Jackson's data center moratorium expires. Without an ordinance, the Saxum rezoning returns under the old rules.

  3. JXN Water's financial plan projects a 10% rate increase in spring 2027, with further hikes in 2028 and 2029.

  4. Lakeland Drive pedestrian bridge linking the Museum Trail and LeFleur East Trail due 'sometime next year,' per WLBT's report on the Aug. 19, 2026 groundbreaking.

The free Pipeline shows the tracker: 13 projects and their dates. Members get that calendar in their inbox every Monday, an alert the hour a record posts, and the live feeds behind it.

Questions

What is in the Monday briefing?
Every dated decision on the metro calendar for the week ahead (council votes, county board items, PSC hearings, bond sales, rate cases), the federal awards and grants that landed in Hinds, Madison, and Rankin counties in the past week, new federal filings naming local governments and companies, the SEC filings of public companies with Jackson operations, the week's labor and fuel numbers, and what the Wire published, with every document linked.
How is this different from the free site?
The free site publishes stories. Pro publishes the calendar and the documents behind them, before the story exists, and sends them to you the hour they appear. Free readers learn what happened. Members learn what is scheduled.
Who reads it?
Developers and general contractors, Commercial brokers and lenders, Real estate and municipal lawyers, Lobbyists and government-affairs staff, Bankers, appraisers, and title companies. Anyone whose next decision depends on what the city, the county, or a state agency does next.
Can my firm share one subscription?
Each seat is one person and one inbox. Firms that want five or more seats can email us for a group rate.
How do I cancel?
Any time. Card subscribers use the Manage billing button on the desk, which opens Stripe's portal; founding members billed by invoice email us and we cancel the same day. Monthly seats end at the end of the billing month. Annual seats are prorated. The unsubscribe link in an email stops the mail but does not cancel billing, so use the portal or email us.
