Slope Stability
Slope instability can result in ground loss or movement that could affect structures or natural features at the top or bottom of the slope. This movement could lead to loss of ground support and damage to buildings, roads, buried utilities, or to siltation or blockage of rivers and local flooding, damage to fish stocks, or even to personal injury.
Additional information on CVC’s policies relating to development adjacent to a valley slope can be found in CVC’s Watershed Planning and Regulation Policies or by contacting CVC’s Planning Department.
