Description

Has everyone forgotten about the mudslide of 1997 that killed four people on Rolling Bay Walk?

Todd Cunningham was the building inspector a couple of years ago. He drew up a map of Rolling Bay Walk identifying the homes that were yellow tagged. This map appears to be lost somewhere within the building department.

This past summer several people were looking for the information on yellow tagged homes on RBW, this included a Realtor. The file could not be found.

Several homes were sold on Rolling Bay Walk this year. I believe these homes are yellow tagged and the buyer was not informed of this. For those who don't know what "yellow tagged" means, here it is (as to my understanding). Because of mudslide danger the home can not be lived in during the rainy season (starts in October?)

The long time residents, who know their house is yellowed tagged, move out of their home for the winter and live elsewhere.

May this be the year of rain?
