A rear deck has become the latest victim of a landslide in Stafford County that continues to inch closer to two homes.
Stafford, Va. -- A month after a landslide swallowed their backyard and Stafford County officials condemned their homes, the O’Leary and Barnes’ families were told today that the County Board of Supervisors has approved releasing $62,000 from a developer security bond to be used to support site stabilization, remediation and repair efforts. The Board voted to approve this measure in a closed-door meetings and following legal counsel between all parties.
“We feel the County is really trying to help us,” stated Dan O’Leary, one of the homeowners. "We are thankful that this bond money can be used to help offset the costs of stabilizing our homes and to help us work towards restoration.”
Although the cost to repair the landslide will likely run in the hundreds of thousands of dollars, this money, along with the funds raised by the local community is adding up. Ebenezer Church continues to collect money for the families in a special fund established the week following the disaster.
