I don’t think the taxpayers should be paying a dime for this. Those homeowners bought their fancy house near the ocean, we didn’t make them so why should we pay?

[@juju-xx5xn]

Elections matter. Vote the ones out who are wasting taxpayer funds on trying to "save" the area. You can't stop Mother Nature.

[@miche568]

💯

[@latinsb4u]

Exactly that money can go to other areas, home owners insurance sell the place to the government and pack up a move to a safer zone... anything near hills or water is prone to erosion and flood.

[@flipperssuperawesomechanne7090]

First your taxes aren't paying for this. The city is probably taxing the rich residents to pay for this and they do lose real estate value if the city doesn't maintain roads. Having lived in an area like that I know the desire to preserve their homes comes from the beauty and the views. Unique and you can't get that feeling elsewhere which is why they don't want to move. But they are fighting a losing battle and they won't get the money out of selling their homes because of the geological uncertainty there. They are not in a good situation and projecting your hatred of their former wealth doesn't reflect well on you.

[@wk4240]

More importantly, they knew of the risks in living exclusively. Most of these residents couldn't care less what issues are happening in the neighboring city areas, as long as the feel there situation is good. Like Malibu residents, they have to fund their own emergency relief centers, instead of relying on tax payers to bail them out everytime they start whining. The $10million hydraugers are waste of tax payer money. They will only buy some very limited time for home owners before something truly catastrophic happens.

The MOST HIGH. There is no such thing as a mother nature. That's an idol made up by a filthy nation of people that the book of Hebrews calls profane and sexually immoral. Whereas Edom saith, We are impoverished, but we will return and build the desolate places; thus saith the LORD of hosts, They shall build, but I will throw down; and they shall call them, The border of wickedness, and, The people against whom the LORD hath indignation for ever. - Malachi 1:4 The Most High is throwing down America, brick by brick, dollar by dollar, and soon all hell is going to break loose. Esau, which is the Caucasian race has judgement coming for what they've done to the so-called blacks, hispanics and native americans, and for their perverse, disgusting, filthy, nasty ways, and for their witchcrafts, sorceries, and pride, for their lmnop alphabet people, for all the lewdness, for all the oppression. Look at what the one that destroyed the Aztecs, Mayans, Incas, and all kingdoms before has pronounced he's going to do to America And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all. - Revelation 18:21

There is a reason it is named 'Rolling Hills' and everyone seems suprised. A 'Tonight Show' segment 'Headlines' 40 years ago made fun of a newspaper ad stating "Unbuildable lots for for sale" in RPV/Rolling Hills. Appearantly 'unbuildable' had a different meaning back then.

It may be time for people to take the signals and get off that coast before they all tumble into the sea.

[@ouivalerie]

Looks like they are getting slow warnings to me also. I looked at more along the CA coast and it's obvious. Kent Dunn expected the big CA tidal wave from undersea volcanos to wipe out the whole state last April/May 2024. Nothing was built to last that long, and those that built surface earth work with cities underground that last longer but get rebuilt also. There are people saying that a financial reset is coming so people will be able to move on with basic income for all.

[@Get_to_the_Point]

My understanding is that this landslide was caused when contractors cut a road high up on the hill, the ground was in tension and soon started to slide after the road cut. Back when they were developing the area.

[@ouivalerie]

NOTHING is built to last 100 or so years. Most places are built for about 60 years if that. There's a very few buildings that last 300 years on purpose for when they start missions to rebuild a whole city they can find a few places that were designed to move back into.

It’s interesting how they didn’t talk about all of the fault lines that ARE the fishers. The land is going to move no matter what they try to do. If anything, they’re just going to make it worse/more catastrophic.

[@jorgeposadas1192]

I've been watching this since I was a kid in the 70's, I've laughed my ass off at people that think they beat mother nature, I wonder if insurance companies insure a 100% failure?

[@juliathomas4312]

Nope- can’t get home insurance if you live back there

Will car insurance pay if there's too many crashes? Too many fires and insurance is designed to pay out a percentage of claims and anything after that they are not liable.

[@carm954]

Back in the 60s took a class at Harbor College where they discussed building on Palos Verdes Peninsula. Evidently, a group of archaeologist and other professionals in that area flew over the area, and did a lot of excavating as during the 50s many homes on that side of Palos Verdes had fallen into the ocean along with, other buildings, such as a Dancehall type building and several piers…. It was determined that they should not continue to build on Palos Verdes peninsula for at least 100 years because the land has not settled yet. It’s as if, as soon as this report was made, the powers that be said “So let’s start building on the immediately. And that’s exactly what they did. Right there at Portuguese Bend, where the road has always been just that way. Slipping and sliding, land, continually moving… It’s not about “rich people” the people were not rich and those days, they were just people that wanted a house on a hill. Back in the 50s and 60s was not popular to live where the rattlesnakes were and it certainly was not popular to live at the beach area because of the “bad weather“ being that it was fog was unhealthy for people. If you don’t know the history, you don’t know the history… It has a history! Back in the 50s I recall many level Farms dotting the landscape. And I also recall a barricaded side of the hill below the road from Portuguese Bend, where an entire neighborhood had just drifted off down the hill. Lots of people that time were coming out to see this disaster. Nope, absolutely nothing new going on over there, but evidently lessons are not learned. Builders have the last say in the state of California it seems. Let’s take away the farmers land in Sacramento, which I also got to see happen by purposely rezoning their land, forcing them to sell at a cheap price so that these Builders could make millions of dollars by basically taking farmers land. Unbelievable… And, it’s not about which party is in office, it’s just about money. It’s seems that it’s always about the money, not about the people.$💔$
