News summary

In Rancho Palos Verdes, California, extensive landslides have prompted a state of emergency declared by Governor Gavin Newsom, leading to power outages for hundreds of homes due to fire risks and infrastructure damage. Southern California Edison has cut power to 245 residences as the landslide, affecting 680 acres, threatens multimillion-dollar properties and has resulted in evacuation warnings for over 100 homes. Local officials report significant land movement, with shifts of up to 1 foot per week exacerbated by a historic storm earlier this year. City leaders are convening special meetings to seek additional support from the state for affected homeowners, as the community faces unprecedented challenges. The situation has led to severe infrastructure damage, including leaks in gas and water lines, and a recent sewer spill. Los Angeles County has allocated $5 million to assist in addressing the disaster.
