Where Eric and Carole Kamradt’s forever home once stood, all that's now left is dirt, debris and disappointment.
DRAPER, Utah — A Utah family was forced out of their home in October after it was deemed unsafe. They thought they would get to move back in eventually — but overnight, their nightmare became reality.“This has just been really horrible,” said their daughter, Amanda Wardlow. “Having your house collapsing on itself — that sort of stress, it’s overwhelming.”No one was hurt. Both homes that slid had been previously deemed unsafe to live in.
Less than a year after the Kamradts moved into the home where they hoped to retire in the Hidden Canyon Estates neighborhood, they knew something was wrong. In a letter shared with FOX 13 News by the family from November, the developer, Edge Homes, said they disagree with the city’s decision. “Just over the last several weeks, we noticed additional movement, so we think that the rain and moisture just got too much,” said Dobbins.
