'Things are still shifting there,' officials said. 'The hillside is still moving. We don't know the extent of that movement, but geographical engineers are on their way to the site to further assess the situation.'
Homes with cracked foundations and collapsing walls sit along a canyon on Peartree Lane in Rolling Hills Estates, where dozens of residents were evacuated and structures condemned after a major ground shift.
Garage doors were almost flattened, roofs had caved in, massive crevices exposed beams and pipes. Many of the homes were already gone. "Things are still shifting there," Kelliher said. "The hillside is still moving. We don't know the extent of that movement, but geographical engineers are on their way to the site to further assess the situation."David Zee and his family were told by emergency officials they had just 20 minutes to get out of their home Saturday night.
At a Sunday news conference at the site, L.A. County Supervisor Janice Hahn said officials "believe many of these homes will fall into the canyon sooner than later.” All the evacuated residents have found somewhere to relocate, most with relatives, and at least two residents who are out of the country haven't seen their home yet. The Los Angeles County assessor will meet homeowners Monday afternoon to help them apply for a property tax waiver, Hahn said.
