Whispering Canyon, a master-planned community nestled in the high desert of Prescott, Arizona, adjacent to Granite Mountain and surrounded by Prescott National Forest, is nearing close-out of its two open phases.

Currently available phases of the community experienced an unprecedented swell of home and ready-to-build lot sales in 2019. The luxury lifestyle community, located at Whispering Canyon Drive and Williamson Valley Road, has 30 remaining lots available between its non-gated Phase 3 and its gated Phase 4.

Newly constructed homes are available in four floorplan options ranging in size from 2,100 SF with two bedrooms and a den to 2,550 SF with three bedrooms, an office and 2.5 baths. Each new home in Prescotts Whispering Canyon community includes an attached finished three-car garage.

Currently, a two-story 2,800+ SF model is available for sale. Prices range from the low $500,000s to the $700,000s. Currently there are a limited number of move-in ready new homes available.

Spacious custom lots are also available throughout the community for buyers looking to have their dream custom home built. Each lot was positioned to offer privacy and unequaled views while providing a sense of community and a sense of immersion into the natural surroundings.

New home sales at Whispering Canyon are being managed by the Norkus Group in Prescott, which has sold all of the new homes built in Whispering Canyon in 2019. The community is expected to be sold out of its inventory by very early summer 2020.

New home and lot sales have been very active in 2019 at Whispering Canyon, exponentially exceeding previous years sales and bringing us to the point of near sell-out for the two currently available phases, said Cole Johnson, developer of Whispering Canyon. People are relocating from areas like California, Washington, Texas and Canada as well as elsewhere in Arizona because they appreciate the value, amount of land, and size of home they can get for their dollar here in Prescott.

Its ideal for retirees as well as for families looking for a second home or wanting to move to a smaller community where their dollar goes much further its a great way to downsize on your mortgage and home costs while simultaneously increasing your acreage with all of the benefits of a new home. Our buyers are recognizing the value and quality experience they get here, Johnson said.

Shanard Rease, on trial for the May 2019 murder of his Fayetteville neighbor, Mimi Perry. Photo/Fayette County Jail.

In the Fayette County trial ofFayetteville resident Shanard D. Rease, 39, charged with murdering his 63-year-old neighbor,Mimi Perry, at her Fayetteville home last spring, the prosecutor said the woman wasviciously and violently attacked by her next-door neighbor (Rease). She made a decision, or instinct, when attacked. She fought back in an effort to save her life.

Assistant District Attorney Dan Hiatt in the prosecutions opening statement said the evidence will show that DNA found on Perrys body, including her fingernails, came from Rease. Perrys body was found by a neighbor.

The murder trial of Fayetteville resident Shanard D. Rease began Jan. 13 in Fayette County Superior Court. Rease is facing charges of felony murder, malice murder and aggravated assault in the May 24, 2019 death of well-known resident Mimi Perry at her Fayetteville home.

The case heard before Superior Court Judge Christopher Edwards was presented by Defense attorney Chris Ramig and Assistant D.A. Hiatt.

Affidavits relating to the charges against 39-year-old Rease in connection with the murder of the 63-year-old Perry said Rease did cause her death by strangulation and causing a fracture of her hyoid bone (in the midline of the neck) and blunt force trauma to the head.

Perry resided at a condo on Bay Branch Boulevard off Ga. Highway 54 East. Rease lives next door

.

Perry was found in the backyard/patio area near the condo in which she resided. Her naked body was found laying on the ground on her back, with a nightgown/dress lying next to the nearby fence.

The first day of the trial was taken up with jury selection, with the second day beginning with opening statements by the prosecution and defense.

Hiatt said when interviewing Rease, investigators noticed injuries to Reases arms and back. The crescent-shaped injuries were believed to be fingernail marks that were left by Mimi Perry, Hiatt added.

The DNA matched, Hiatt said.

Ramig in his opening statement said that while There is no doubt this was a horrible crime, that doesnt mean my client is the murderer.

Acknowledging that Rease and Perry were next door neighbors, Ramig said Reases mother (with whom he lives) later in the trial will testify to his innocence because, Due to the configuration of the (multi-story) condo, he was on the upper level, there is no way he could get past his mom to get to Mimi.

Ramig called into question the DNA report, saying it represented almost all the eggs in the DAs basket, adding that there are problems with the DNA that will be addressed later in the trial.

Regarding touch DNA which can be left on objects merely by touching them, Ramig said Rease told investigators he had helped Perry move a flower pot. Ramig said he deposited his DNA on the flower pot that Perry could have later touched.

The first witness called was Perrys roommate, an 18-year resident of the condo. She confirmed that Perry lived in the ground floor portion of the three-level condo that opens up to a patio and the backyard area.

The roommate said the two had returned home around 3 p.m. on May 24, with Perry planning to go to the Whitewater High School graduation at 7 p.m. She said Perry went to her quarters on the first level. Having later gone downstairs, the roommate found the lights and TV on and the door closed, finding that Perry was not in the residence and concluding that she left. It was after that when a neighbor came to the door saying there was a body behind the building, she said.

Also testifying were Fayetteville Police officers Lee Huddleston and Eric Dorsey.

Huddleston responded to the call of a deceased person and had his body camera activated.

Though it showed no close-ups, the video showed naked Perrys body lying near the corner of the building near her condo and patio, with her legs essentially straight and her arms by her side.

A few feet away next to the fence was a piece of what was described as a purple-colored clothing, apparently a nightgown, shirt or dress.

There was also a clump of hair that appeared to be that of Perry laying in the area of the body, Huddleston said.

Referencing videos from body cameras worn by Huddleston and Dorsey while speaking with neighbors, including Rease, Ramig was told that Rease, wearing a short-sleeve shirt, made no effort to conceal his arms from officers.

The third day of the trail began with a Ga. Bureau of Investigation analyst testifying on the DNA profile reports that were generated. DNA swabs were taken from Perry, Rease and four other people, including her roommate.

The report noted that a DNA examination of the fingernails of Perrys right hand showed significant DNA evidence under her fingernails. The DNA, in approximately equal volumes, belonged to Perry and Rease.

The frequency of the foreign profile (Reases DNA) would be approximately 1 in 1 septillion (1 followed by 24 0s), the analyst said, adding that that compares to the global population of approximately 7.5 billion.

The fingernails of Perrys left hand had substantially less DNA evidence under them, with a large amount belonging to Perry and only a small amount belonging to Rease.

Ramig on cross examination asked if Reases DNA could have been on Perrys fingernails as a result of touch DNA (also referred to as contact DNA), by Rease having touched something later touched by Perry. His point was that Rease said he had recently helped Perry move a large flower pot inside the home that could have put Reases DNA in a position to be picked up by Perry.

The analyst noted that it is possible to transfer DNA in that manner, adding such a transfer is more feasible when certain conditions are met. Examples of such conditions include sweaty hands or handling rough surfaces rather than smooth ones.

A significant amount of time was spent with both attorneys posing questions, and receiving responses, concerning the intricacies pertaining to DNA transfer.

Hiatt asked the analyst if the volume of DNA found under the fingernails of Perrys right hand would be expected after handling items or scratching her nails across a rough surface. The analyst answered, No.

Responding to a question posed by a member of the jury and relating to the significant amount of DNA found on the fingernails of Perrys right hand, the analyst said he had performed hundreds of DNA screenings, adding that it is an unusual result to have that much DNA under fingernails.

Later in the day, the jury heard testimony from Fayetteville police investigator Sgt. Shawn Albea, who led the investigation and conducted the interview with Rease.

Rease during his initial interview (which was played for the jury), and prior to be named as a suspect, said he did not know anything about Perry being murdered. Rease said he would see her sometimes when he went out back to smoke, adding that the last time he saw her was earlier during the week she was killed.

Rease said approximately two days before her death he had helped her move the large flower pot, or vase, from the patio into the house where he sat it on the floor.

At one point during the interview, Albea said he observed marks and scratches in a crescent shape on Reases arm and forearm and asked if he could photograph those areas, with Albea in his testimony saying the marks looked relatively fresh. Rease agreed to the photographs.

Rease during the interview provided a timeline of his activities on the day Perry was murdered. He said he arrived home from work during the afternoon hours and later walked to buy cigarettes at a gas station on nearby Ga. Highway 54.

Fayetteville Officer David Cagle, who was also present at the Rease interview, testified later in the day that he had reviewed the multiple cameras at the store, and that he did not see Rease in the video.

The trial will continue on Jan. 16, with additional witnesses expected to be called.

Construction on a Converse senior community center should begin in April

Construction on a senior community center in Converse should begin in late April and take 4-5 months to complete, according to a timeline discussed with city council last week.

The former Converse City Hall at 403 S. Seguin Road has sat empty since a new facility opened in January 2019 across the street, next to the citys justice center.

Foundation issues rendered a portion of the old structure uninhabitable, with as much as a six-inch differentiation from front to back and side to side. That part of the building will be demolished so the rest of the building can be refurbished to offer meeting and multi-purpose rooms for senior activities and events.

Porter Dillard, of Dillard Architect Group PLLC, took city council through a Powerpoint that showed illustrations of the finished structure, as well as a site plan and floor plan of the building.

The current building occupies 9,960 square feet on the 1.23-acre site, Dillard said. It formerly housed city council chambers, city administration offices and, at one time, the citys police department.

The new site will result in a 6,490 square-foot building. Within that, were going to create two large multi-purpose rooms that can be used for events and programs, he told council at the Jan. 7 meeting.

The former city council chambers will be Phase I of the project and offer 2,760 square feet of meeting space. A second meeting and multi-purpose room will be developed later in Phase 2 and add 3,400 of additional space.

Young said the facility will feature a catering kitchen, improved lighting, and an updated interior color scheme. Parking will increase to 91 spaces, on all four sides.

An addition will be a 1,200 square-foot outdoor patio plaza on the north side that will be enclosed with a wrought iron fence for an outdoor activity space associated with the senior center. A portion of the patio will be under a pergola cover, he said.

Assistant City Manager Manny Quintanilla said the budget for phase I of the project is $234,000, with 80 percent ($180,000) coming from a Bexar County CDBG grant. The remainder ($54,000) will be the city match. Well also be using in-kind services from public works, to put in the parking lot and other such features, Quintanilla added.

New sidewalks will surround the building and eliminate the current front-and-back existence, creating a balanced flow from parking to the building entrances.

City Engineer Leonard Young said Phase I of the project will focus primarily on the city council chamber room and redoing the bathrooms to make them fully ADA complaint, which is going to take completely gutting the existing bathrooms and putting in brand new ones.

Mayor Al Suarez said the city is working with the Greater Randolph Area Services Program (GRASP) in Converse so as not to duplicate services it already offers to seniors.

We already have a plan to work with them to make sure we dont duplicate service, Suarez said. They have been informed and are as excited about this as we are.

City Manager Le Ann Piatt said the center will have a calendar of activities, offering a place for seniors to go, to get them out of the house.

We want to offer a wide variety of activities, Piatt said. Youll have movie days, youll have Bunco day, yoga classes, and games and activities.

The new senior community center will allow residents in that portion of the city an opportunity to gather with similar seniors - something they cannot do without transportation to GRASPs facility on Donalan Drive, about 1.5 miles away.

Piatt said they will make the space available for veterans services, such as help with benefits and doing taxes, given the citys large military and retiree population.

Young said bids will be advertised for 30 days prior to an opening and council action on rewarding a bid late in April. Youngs timeline showed construction stretching from April 30 to a tentative finish on Oct. 5.

On the Market: Expanded Cape Cod in Easton, full-time residence or weekend retreat

EASTON A picturesque 4.28-acre level and lightly wooded property offers the perfect setting for the off white expanded Cape Cod house at 240 Silver Hill Road, whether as a full-time residence or as a weekend retreat.

This park-like property would be a great weekend retreat with its Gunite in-ground swimming pool, clay tennis court, pond, and other comforts, all just an hour from New York City. The 12-room house was built in 1951 and was later expanded to include 3,564 square feet of living space. The house has a lot of character. It is homey with very generously sized comfortable rooms. By todays standards some people might consider the kitchen small, and it could use some updating, but it is perfectly functional as it is.

The house is located on a corner lot in a seemingly remote part of Easton and yet it is surprisingly close to Rt. 136 into Westport and Black Rock Turnpike, which takes motorists to the Merritt Parkway about 10 minutes away and into Fairfield. It is also not far from the center of Easton, and its about equidistant to all public schools including Joel Barlow High School in nearby Redding. Golfers should note that the house is quite close to the Connecticut Golf Club and the Aspetuck Valley Country Club and golf course. For hikers there are several protected open spaces, some with hiking trails. No need to leave the property, though. The large level yard has plenty of room to kick around a soccer ball, according to the listing agent.

As one approaches the pale gray house with white shutters and a yellow front door, it looks like it belongs in the pages of a storybook. That appearance is underscored by the architectural configuration of the attached garage, which has four vehicle bays, with two doors facing the street and two doors facing the side yard. It is topped with a cupola. Adding to that feeling is the winding slate path to the front entrance, the door flanked by decorative leaded glass sidelights.

The front door opens into a two-story foyer. The spacious formal living room features a marble fireplace with a decorative mantel, a large picture window, and a door to the enclosed porch or sun room. The porch features a flagstone floor, three walls of windows, and a door to the yard. There is flexibility of use in the den, which can serve as a music room or as a fourth bedroom if necessary. It has a bay window and built-in bookshelves.

In the large formal dining room there is a fireplace, ceramic tile floor, a vaulted ceiling and French doors to the patio and yard. The kitchen has ample counter space and cabinets, and a separate breakfast or casual dining room with paneling on the lower walls, floral wallpaper on the upper walls, and a built-in china cabinet and drawers. The large office has a built-in corner cabinet. Rounding out the first floor is a marble full bath with a shower and a door to the yard, a perfect place to clean up after swimming, playing tennis or gardening.

On the second floor there are three bedrooms. The sizable master suite features a sitting area, ceiling fan, built-in dresser drawers, and a dressing room. The master bath features lavender ceramic tile flooring and lower walls. The other bedrooms share a hall bath that has gray ceramic tiles. One of the bedrooms also has built-in dresser drawers as well as a built-in window seat and wall-to-wall carpeting.

The full unfinished basement offers an opportunity for additional living space, if necessary, and adds significantly to the homes abundance of storage.

ANMORE, B.C. -- A Metro Vancouver retiree who had been under investigation by the BC Conservation Officer Service for taking an emaciated bear cub to a local wildlife centre will not face fines or jail time for his actions.

Anmore resident Mike Robson had taken the tiny cub, which was huddled under his neighbour's patio table, to the Critter Care Wildlife Society in Langley after he said conservation officers had refused to look into his wife's report about the bear. Robson also said officers appeared to be in no hurry to help the animal, which weighed only 20 pounds and appeared to be alone with no food source.

"I want to thank the public for all the messages they sent to government and all the support they gave us," said Robson, crediting the media attention and barrage of criticism against the conservation service for the swift end to the investigation.

"The COS has determined that no enforcement action will be taken against people who were clearly acting with good intentions," confirmed the BC Conservation Officer Service in an email statement to CTV News.

CTV News was there on Jan. 9 when Robson was surprised to see a conservation officer pull up to his home in the forested community of Anmore, north of Port Moody, around 11 a.m. He told the responding officer that he didnt think anyone was coming to tend to the cub, so he took it to the wildlife centre, fearing it would starve or freeze in sub-zero temperatures. Robson was also concerned the cub would be one of many bears euthanized or taken to the woods to die if conservation officers showed up to deal with it.

The BC Conservation Officer Service acknowledged it should have done more to tell Robson they intended to assess the bear, writing "clear communications and a thoughtful approach to the people who care about wildlife is critical in achieving positive results."

The officer on scene and the email statement both reiterated the risk of human habituation should people intervene too soon with wildlife, noting cubs sometimes wander away from their mother or their den and can make their way back if left alone. Sometimes "rescuing" a cub actually results in separating it from its family and officials advise leaving cubs for 24 to 48 hours before they determine what to do.

The cub is now with Critter Care in Langley, where caretakers are tending to the cub along with 27 other orphaned cubs. Senior animal care technician Nathan Wagstaffe said the cub should be between 70 and 80 pounds. He believes it was orphaned earlier last year and has been barely surviving since then.

"His heart was definitely in the right place but unfortunately his actions were not," Wagstaffe said last Thursday of Robsons delivery of the cub to them rather than allowing a conservation officer to assess and retrieve the cub. "We have to follow protocols the way they are. We can't have the general public just picking up orphan bear cubs."

Knowing the cub will be under Critter Cares supervision and stewardship for up to a year is a relief to Robson, who appreciates the end to the investigation into his actions, but is also wary of what comes next.

"(Dep. Chief Conservation Officer) Chris Doyle commented that the story had taken a life of its own and he was shocked at how many angry people were contacting the conservation service and said they were going to have a meeting about it with the staff to review what happened and see where mistakes were made and try to do better the next time," said Robson.

"But I didnt feel his heart was in changing things in the future -- I didnt think its systemic change for the way conservation treats animals. It was more about how to avoid bad press."

The Pittsburgh real estate market is slow right now, but that doesnt necessarily have to do with doldrums of winter. Jessi Dunlap, an agent with Coldwell Banker Real Estate Services, says her busiest months have been October through December for three straight years. Sellers have the advantage, with people clamoring to stake their claim on a low inventory of single-family dwellings, townhomes and condos.

Some folks will open up their options in order to have more opportunities in their specific area and budget, Dunlap says.

She finds that Ross Township properties are getting a lot of attention due to an easy commute, a highly-rated school district and lots of decent shopping, but she urges buyers to go out and explore. For around $150,000 you can get a nice piece of property in the region.

With all of the different pocket neighborhoods in Pittsburgh, its hard to narrow down to just one popular spot, she says. Each has its own unique flavor and fans to go along with it.

A CRAFTY woman decided to update her tired kitchen after having the same dcor for more than a decade, spending 30 on materials from Wilkos.

She had been living with the same dark kitchen interior for the past 13 years, with black tiles and a black splashback.

She decided it was finally time to freshen it up, so rolled up her sleeves and got stuck into some DIY, transforming the space on a budget.

She picked up white paint and on-trend marble fablon from Wilkos,spending 30 in total.

First she painted the tiles in a bright white, and covered the countertops in the vinyl, tackling the tricky sink area in two halves.

The kitchen looks brighter and fresher after the mini-makeover, with accessories the only thing left to buy.

She shared snaps of her handiwork to Facebook group DIY On A Budget, where she said: Kitchen revamp for 30.

Might not be to everyone's taste but I like it. Just need new accessories.

Tile paint from wilkos 15.

Fablon from wilkos 5 per roll used 3 roles.

Thanks for all the nice comments I did like the black but been like that for 13 years fancied a change lol.

Her project has gone down well online, racking up more than 800 likes.

One person said: The white is so so so much better. Love it!

Another praised: Love the new brighter design! Countertops and backsplash are beautiful. Nice job!

A third commented: 30 well spent. Much betta!

Someone else thought: I wish I'd had the presence of mind to paint my old kitchen like this, I had black tiles from previous owner from floor to ceiling, this would've really brightened it up.

While this person wrote: Love it. Makes it look more wider. If that makes sense.
