It is as simple as that to me. <br /><br />I live in Horseshoe Cove. I live on property built on colluvial soil. The two roads above me are built on colluvial soil. It is a fact...I have proof. The McGill Engineering Firm gave me and other homeowners in Horseshoe Cove proof in an expensive evaluation they did of this Cove.<br /><br />I remember the day I and other homeowners met with McGill. I knew it would be difficult to hear, as we had had multiple landslide incidents...one of those being a boulder breaking through a neighbor's home. Other neighbors were cut off to their homes due to landslides. The Horseshoe Subdivision had literally turned into hell.<br /><br />After the report was explained to the group of homeowners, the hell got worse. Millions of dollars was quoted to us as being required to fully FIX unfixable slopes. Sure, the moneies could be spent if homeowners could acquire such sums; however, there would never be a guarantee of FIXING THE UNFIXABLE.<br /><br />Since that time, some moneies have been spent with some degree of satisfaction. Some homeowners have not given full disclosure,but yet they sold their homes and left. One of those homeowners was a realtor himself. How he did what he did, I will never know. I have to tell the truth about living here, and I will never pass my problem onto another. <br /><br />I will guard the truth of this hell on earth until the day I die...yet the Association of Realtors and the Home Builders Association continue to say, "regional geologic hazards are immaterial threats to property owners."Pam Williamsnoreply@blogger.com
