Creeping Landslides Damage and Dismantle Colorado Springs Homes in Slow Motion

Recent heavy rains have triggered landslides in Colorado Springs, costing many residents hundreds of thousands of dollars in damages to their homes.

And many homeowners in the area say they were unaware of the potential risk when they purchased their properties, despite geologists warning city officials and developers of the landslide zones since the 1990s, according to Jon White, senior engineering geologist at the Colorado Geological Survey, who noted that shifts in the land have caused foundations to crack and utilities to fail, creating dangerous conditions.
