Oak Ridge renovates 70 units for affordable housing

The Tennessee Housing Development Agency joined the Oak Ridge Housing Authority (ORHA) last Thursday, Nov. 5, to celebrate the rehabilitation of 70 housing units at four Oak Ridge sites, now known as the Secret City Collective. In an emailed response to The Oak Ridger's questions, Maria Catron, who leads the Oak Ridge Housing Authority and Oak Ridge Community Development Corp., said the 70 residences on Joel Lane, LaSalle Road, Irene Lane and Van Hicks Road have been renovated, while exterior landscaping and paving are being completed. The 70 housing units were formerly public housing, she said, but are now "affordable housing units with project-based Section 8 assistance." Each rehabilitation project includes updates such as new heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems, roof replacement, flooring upgrades and aesthetic enhancements within each unit, as well as renovations to site amenities to help preserve affordable housing and improve residents’ quality of life, the Tennessee Housing Development Agency (THDA) explained in a news release. The project was financed in part through low-income housing tax credits previously awarded by THDA. In addition, ORHA will continue its partnership with Ridgeview Behavioral Health Services to provide mental and behavioral health services to residents through the Horizons Peer

Disruptive threats pile up at Knox County schools, but fall from national highs

Threats made at schools are hugely disruptive. Everyone has to evacuate , police officers sweep and secure school grounds, and the community is left feeling uneasy after a student makes an oftentimes impulsive decision. After Hardin Valley Middle School administrators got tired of responding to threats – especially vague ones scribbled on restroom walls, which they have to take seriously nonetheless – they called on parents and volunteers to step in as monitors. Now all restrooms are closed during class time. Students can only go in one at a time, signing in and out when they do, with an adult volunteer checking the restroom between visits. "It's almost like a daily thing now. We need to get the word out to not only our kids, but have them have conversations with their friends about how this can backfire on them, how this can make them juvenile delinquents," said Lee Ann Eaves, the Hardin Valley school board representative. Police have responded to 98 calls for threats at Knox County Schools in 2026. Threats are defined as "any kind of verbal or written messaging with intent to cause mass destruction or (mass) casualty." Get the Daily Briefing newsletter: Keep up with the
