State information: Outside of outlining the phases for who gets the vaccine, Gov. Mike DeWine and the Ohio Department of Health have not released much framework for the distribution of shots preventing the coronavirus. Local leaders expressed mixed feelings about how the rollout has been handled. But Seth Richardson reports there is a common thread: Information is coming at the last second, leaving little time to switch direction. Is Ohio ready to ramp up shots?

Vaccine targeting: As daunting as it might be in a state of more than 11 million people, especially with the slow start to coronavirus vaccinations, targeting the most vulnerable for the first vaccines could make a big difference before the end of the winter. Rich Exner breaks down the groups of Ohioans in line.

On Saturday, there were 8,374 new coronavirus cases and 55 deaths, Kaylee Remington reports.

Lorain vaccination: Lorain County is the second Northeast Ohio health board to lay out vaccination plans. The county health department is creating pods, or designated locations where residents will go to be vaccinated, allowing up to 1,000 people per day per pod to be vaccinated. Julie Washington reports the health department can run up to eight pods per day, but the number open at any given time will fluctuate depending on the amount of vaccine available.

Cuyahoga vaccinations: The Cuyahoga County Board of Health commissioner said it could be well into February before coronavirus vaccines are administered to all willing members of the 1A group, reports Courtney Astolfi. Approximately 20% of the countys workforce is in the health-care field and eligible for early vaccinations.

Cuyahoga Board of Health: The Cuyahoga County Board of Health on Friday reported 3,423 new coronavirus cases among suburban residents for the week ending Jan. 2, bringing the total number of suburban cases to 50,450, Courtney Astolfi reports.

Vaccination questions: Gov. Mike DeWine finally provided some answers this week about how the next group of Ohioans would get the coronavirus vaccine. But many questions about specifics remain. Laura Hancock sent a dozen of them to spokespeople for the Ohio Department of Health and DeWine, with hopes of getting answers.

Free masks: The state of Ohio has distributed about 38 million free face masks since the coronavirus crisis began last spring and plans to hand out millions more, Jeremy Pelzer reports. The Ohio Department of Aging mailed 10 million masks last month to 2.1 million Ohioans age 65 and older, and nearly 5 million masks have been handed out as part of the Ohio Department of Healths More Than A Mask campaign, which is targeted at minorities and vulnerable communities.

Racial disparities: Cuyahoga County Executive Armond Budish announced Friday that he has issued four executive orders intended to address racial and gender disparities in county contracting procedure. Courtney Astolfi reports the orders align with contracting-related recommendations from the Citizens Advisory Council on Equity, which was created as part of the countys 2020 declaration of racism as a public health crisis.

Cormorants: Once endangered in the Great Lakes region, double-crested cormorants dark, long-necked waterfowl often spotted in Lake Eries western basin are facing a new threat of potential extermination authorized by the federal government. Robin Goist reports on the decades-long history of cormorants angering Ohio fishermen, since the birds can eat up to a pound of fish per day and are routinely blamed for affecting the states aquaculture production.

FBI investigation: FBI agents late Friday raided the home of a former Cleveland Metropolitan School District employee, a day after she submitted a conspiracy theory-referencing resignation letter to the district. Emily Bamforth, Eric Heisig and Sabrina Eaton report that authorities posted a picture that raised questions as to whether she participated in a riot at the U.S. Capitol led by supporters of outgoing President Donald Trump.

Hough homes: A Westlake developer plans to build 100 houses over the next several years in Hough, a majority-Black Cleveland neighborhood officials are working to transform. Eric Heisig reports that Cleveland Custom Homes plans to buy lots from the Cuyahoga Land Bank, five at a time, to build 1,200 square-foot ranches and 1,600-foot two-story structures that start at $250,000.

Don Graves: President-elect Joe Biden on Friday formally introduced former KeyBank official Don Graves as his nominee to serve as a deputy Commerce Department secretary, calling Graves a longtime trusted adviser who helped him lead efforts to get Detroit out of bankruptcy during President Barack Obamas presidential administration, Sabrina Eaton reports.

Calls for resignation: Sen. Sherrod Brown accused Republican Sens. Josh Hawley of Missouri and Ted Cruz of Texas of abetting insurrection, calling for their resignation and if they do not step down their expulsion from the U.S. Senate, Marc Bona reports.

Officer-involved shooting: An 18-year-old Cleveland man shot and killed by an East Cleveland police officer Tuesday morning was driving his girlfriend to work in a car a friend allowed him to drive as a favor, his stepmother tells Kaylee Remington. The familys insistence that Vincent Belmonte drove a borrowed car runs counter to East Cleveland polices initial report that says the officers tried to stop a car they say was stolen.

Hang onto your face masks, even after you've been vaccinated for COVID-19, health experts say.Dave Killen

Mask up: Do I need to keep wearing a mask if Ive received the coronavirus vaccine? Julie Washington reports the short answer is yes, individuals who have been immunized need to keep wearing masks because its still possible for them to get COVID-19 and transmit it to others.

Coping through COVID: Licensed independent social worker Larissa Malcolm felt ashamed that she had gotten COVID-19. She felt like she had done something wrong and feared that she had infected the entire West Side of Cleveland. So Malcolm sought counseling at MetroHealth Systems, where a therapist asked, Would you feel guilty if you caught a cold? Julie Washington reports that Malcolm kept her spirits up by opening a private social-work practice, moderating a Facebook group for COVID-19 survivors, creating a website offering advice and donating plasma so her antibodies can be used to help others with the illness.

Susan Allan Block: Republican Gov. Mike DeWine announced Friday that Susan Allan Block, one of his appointees to the Ohio Arts Council, had resigned following remarks on social media supporting Republican President Donald Trumps false narrative of widespread electoral fraud and calling Democratic Vice President-elect Kamala Harris a whore. Seth Richardson reports Block received widespread condemnation.

Liquor violations: The Ohio Investigative Unit cited Hudsons Kepners Tavern for violating coronavirus-related health orders to curb the spread of the coronavirus Friday night. Kaylee Remington reports agents also cited Wagners Roadhouse in Chillicothe; Enzos in Steubenville; D Kays Bar and Grill in New Philadelphia; Musical Inn in Canton; and Third Base in Rayland. On Saturday, Brooklands Bar in Akron; B Stone Bar & Grill and Cebars Euclid Tavern, and Republix Cocktail and Grill, all in Euclid; and My Corner Bar in Parma Heights were cited, Jane Morice reports.

Historic elm: An elm tree which towered above historic row homes on Prospect Avenue has been reduced to a stump. Anne Nickoloff reports the tree was at least 150 years old, estimated to be planted in 1868 as one of the earliest street-tree plantings in Cleveland along Euclid Avenue and Prospect.

Worst cooks: One of this seasons Worst Cooks in America is from right here in Northeast Ohio. Anne Nickoloff reports that Rocky Rivers Joey Kinsley is a competitor on this season of the popular Food Network program.

Gatsby house: Cleveland.coms sister site, Architectural Digest, brings you out east to visit one of the most magnificent mansions along the Gold Coast of Long Island, the inspiration behind the posh locale of East Egg in The Great Gatsby.

Home of the Week: A brand-new farmhouse in Beverly Hills - Los Angeles Times

WINDSOR, ONT. -- A newly renovated home, and the surprises inside, saw a Windsor family brought together by tragedy awestruck by the promise of a new life together.

On Sunday, the keys were handed over to Terrence and Chantell Hurst, and the six Allen children the newlywed couple has taken in as their own, for a home donated by the childrens great-grandfather and made new again with the support of the community.

The Erie Street-home was renovated for the family after the Hursts decided to adopt the six orphaned Allen children following the sudden loss of the childrens parents, Carmen and Adam Allen in early September.

"This is like my dream home," said Chantell Hurst, cycling between giddy smiles and teary eyes. "Its beautiful and its truly stunning."

Caster Custom Homes partnered with 26 different businesses, foundations and donors to renovate a donated Erie Street home for the Hurst an Allen family. Sunday, December 20, 2020. (Ricardo Veneza/CTV Windsor)

Chantell knew the family and would come over to do their hair. When she heard about the familys tragedy, she felt a calling to do more.

"The Lord just laid something on my heart," said Chantell. "When they were at their house, I was doing their hair and when I realized they werent being placed anywhere, the Lord put it on my heart and then I called my husband and he just said, 'If thats what you want'."

The act saw the community respond.

Dan Caster, the president of Caster Custom Homes, worked to bring partners together to give the family a new home after he was moved by the Hursts generosity to keep the brothers and sisters together.

He has had his own brush with heartache.

"I almost lost a daughter five-and-a-half years ago in my arms," said Caster. "You realize how precious children are and you realize what life is all about. Its not all about you anymore, its about your children."

The Caster Group along with 26 partner businesses, foundations and donors came together to renovate the home donated by the Allens great grandfather.

Caster hopes the new home will be the backdrop of great new memories.

"Its all about family to me," said Caster. "I just hope they feel welcome. I hope they feel loved. Love from the community, love from the people who put all their energy forth to do this and love from our partners that helped us to renovate the home."

Not only did the business community step up but, so did the familys church community.

New Life Fellowship Bishop Paul Riley says the church community rallied around the family in their time of need.

"For something like this to happen, this is nothing but the perfect example of what love of a community and people is," said Riley.

One more surprise

The surprises did not end with the tour of all the new features of the redone house.

Caster gathered the blended family at the dinner table for a final surprise revealing a cheque for $100,000 from the Alan Quesnel Family Foundation.

"This is not at all what I was expecting," said Terrence. "Im just speechless."

Some of the Allen children held their head in their hands in disbelief while Chantell wiped tears from her eyes.

"Were blessed. We both have jobs. We dont have $100,000 I dont think weve ever even seen $100,000," said Chantell. "But, to know that you can just send your children to college, to university, to not let them want."

Chantell says the couple are still working through the adoption process but, are humbled and elated to be spending Christmas together under the same roof.

The concept for a whole tiny townhouse complex made of these small homes was dreamt up by a Vancouver home builder

A Vancouver home builder working to provide a solution to homelessness in the city got tired of waiting around for laws to accommodate the project and built a prototype.

Bryn Davidson is the co-owner of Lanefab Design/Build, a company that builds custom homes and infill mini-homes or laneway houses. A few years ago Davidson heard about the Partners on Dwelling (POD) program based in Portland, Oregon which is now the Kenton Womens Village. The POD program facilitated the building of small sleeping pods that could be grouped closely together, it was this idea that got Davidson thinking his company could do something similar.

His vision was a house with a footprint of less than 10 square meters and less than 4.5 meters tall, dimensions small enough their construction would not require a building permit. These tiny homes could then be butted up against each other and be kept on empty lots throughout the city. The smallest version of these homes would be just for sleeping in but Davidsons design allows for the addition of kitchen and bathroom modules.

In an interview with Vancouver Is Awesome, Davidson said although he had been working on the project for a few years, things really started to heat up in September when residents near Strathcona Park protested what they viewed as government inaction on the homeless population staying in the park.

"That's when I really just started working on it, doing more drawings and started putting out drawings for concepts of tiny house villages on the sites of these community gardens, Davidson said. People are talking about all these different things but there wasn't a whole lot that was actually happening.

Davidson shared his design process extensively on his Twitter account. Renderings of the homes placed on the front lawn of Vancouver City Hall eventually garnered the attention of city counsellors Jean Swanson and Pete Fry, who pushed for the tiny home concept to be considered as an option for emergency housing.

In October he took his renderings to city council but the results of this attention were somewhat lacklustre for Davidson. When his idea came back to council after being studied for the projects feasibility, staff ranked down the idea. Davidson says this was in part to building code and zoning hurdles the project would have to go through.

Aside from the Strathcona Park protests, 2020 highlighted the need for additional sheltering for Vancouvers homeless population in a big way.

"The COVID situation exacerbated everything because the shelter capacities were reduced, Davidson said. We saw the Balmoral and other buildings were basically closed and emptied so we had this kind of perfect storm of things that were pushing people onto the street."

Davidson added it is not just a Downtown Eastside problem, that just happens to be where it is most visible but the pandemic has exacerbated these already dangerous issues.

On Nov. 5, Davidson started construction on the first prototype of a tiny home in a parking lot on Annacis Island. On Dec. 10, Davidson started a GoFundMe campaign to help finance the project. Thirteen days later the campaign has reached $2,740 raised of its $8,000 goal.

Ten days after creating the GoFundMe campaign, Davidson along with his girlfriend and son spent the night in the home.

Without any heat hooked up it was still warmer than the almost freezing temps outside, Davidson wrote of the experience on Twitter. We didnt need to zip up the sleeping bags

Even with the prototype nearing completion, Davidsons mission is far from over. The next steps include forming a partnership with a registered charity and getting the home in front of city officials so they can see a real-life example of what he proposed at council months earlier.

Davidson plans to accomplish this with the help of the Overdose Prevention Society.

When the prototype is completed, the tiny home will be moved to the OPS location on 58 and 62 East Hastings where it will serve as a support building for an Indigenous artist in residence at the society.

Sarah Blyth, a founding member of the OPS, says she is more than willing to showcase the tiny home, saying she is in support of showcasing all sorts of housing solutions.

"If you didn't have a place to sleep and you had to sleep in terribly cold and rough conditions, any human being needs a place to sleep that is warm and comfortable, Blyth said. When you don't have that life can be pretty difficult."

Blyth also hopes the tiny house will draw the attention of city officials and bureaucrats so they can get their eyes on it and have a real conversation about the possibilities.

Blyth added that she has asked unhoused people in the DTES about what they think of the tiny homes idea and the response has been purely positive.

The current version of one tiny house Bryn Davidson says comes with a $20,000 price tag. A number that could be significantly reduced by partnerships with charities and assistance from the City of Vancouver.
