MOUNTAIN GREEN, Utah — Residents of two Mountain Green homes were evacuated Sunday following a mudslide that left the buildings unsafe.
On Sunday, fire crews and neighborhood residents attempted to dig drainage trenches to relieve water buildup. "We were very fortunate so far and I'm hoping, fingers crossed, that we don't get any structural damage," said Chief Brian Brendel with the Mountain Green Fire Protection District. "We had 50 people on the scene that were helping remove belongings and they were placed in people's garages and in trailers and was crazy, but we had to kind of shut it down," said Brendel who added that the county engineer was concerned about another slide.
