A landslide has occurred in the Starr Hill neighborhood downtown. CCFR and Red Cross crews are responding and contacting impacted homeowners and immediate neighbors. No injuries have been reported.

The public are asked to stay away from the landslide area to ensure everyone’s safety and allow first responders to work smoothly.

If you live in a high-slope area with increased landslide risk, please be aware that landslide risk is elevated due to the ongoing rain event and you may consider making alternative housing plans and/or preparing a go-bag in case of a need to evacuate.
