2. Cleveland takes legal action against owners of deteriorating Corlett Movers building (cleveland19.com) — City officials are pursuing both criminal and civil action over the deteriorating Corlett Movers building on East 55th Street, citing serious fire and chemical hazards and unsecured access.

3. What new report says about money for road projects near Browns dome (fox8.com) — State transportation officials have ranked Brook Park’s road project for a proposed Cleveland Browns dome sixth statewide, a key step toward securing $70 million to manage traffic near Hopkins Airport. Final funding votes are expected by March, and residents can weigh in at a Jan. 14 public hearing on how the stadium-related roadwork could affect their commutes and neighborhood streets.
   

4. Power of Inspiration: Looking back at a year of giving with Matt Kaulig (wkyc.com) — Cleveland-area readers are seeing their own neighbors and local kids uplifted through WKYC’s Power of Inspiration series with Matt Kaulig, which spotlighted charitable events across Northeast Ohio this past year. From youth sports camps to hospital teddy bear deliveries, the project aims less at recognition and more at inspiring everyday Clevelanders to volunteer, donate, and get involved in community causes.
