Q. Can you provide details about the slide?
A. On the evening of Feb. 4, the Sonoma County Fire District and Santa Rosa Fire Department responded to a report of a landslide into a home in the 3500 block of Deer Trail Court in unincorporated Santa Rosa. Firefighters from both agencies worked to safely remove the two residents that were uninjured and trapped inside a home. Drone images show the slide is approximately 300 feet wide and 60 feet deep. The slide is on private property and is not the responsibility of the City of Santa Rosa or the County of Sonoma, but both jurisdictions are actively involved. The City is requiring the monitoring and mitigation through the Fountaingrove II Open Space Maintenance Association, the property owner.
Q. What are the geologists and engineers finding as they investigate?
A. RGH Consultants, Inc., the geotechnical engineering firm retained by Fountaingrove II Open Space Maintenance Association, is evaluating the slide and will produce a report on next steps. The consultant’s analysis will need to be completed after the rain stops and the soil has settled.
Q. What are the mitigation measures being proposed?
A. Once the consultants complete their analysis and report, the next step will be a proposal for measures for the property owner to mitigate further damage from the slide.
Q. How long will residents be under an evacuation warning?
A. The evacuation warning will be in place as long as there is a potential threat from the landslide. If the landslide moves or worsens, law enforcement may issue an evacuation order. The evacuation warning will be lifted when the landslide is stabilized and no longer presents a danger to residents.
Q. Is there anything that residents can do to keep themselves and their properties safe?
A. At this point, residents are advised to be ready to vacate should the worst case occur. If you see or feel movement, call 9-1-1 and evacuate right away. Contact neighbors if you are able to. Sign up for SoCoAlert notifications so that you can be notified by Sonoma County first responders in the event of emergency situations.
