These reports and proposals from developers should be made public at least 30 days before approval of developement and public input allowed. Then these developers do have resources of state and university geoligical surveys to also use along with the new research required. And cities should not be allowed to indemnify themselves of rezoneing a hazardous area for developement as long as the state has the area already zoned. There is no technology that can surcomvent Mother Nature regardless of claims by developers who often do not comply with conditional developement anyway. A buck saved is a thousan dollars in their pockets and once developed and sold they are released of any liability to homeowners. Perhaps developers should have permenant liabilty for developing hazardous areas, even with the rezoning approval. This would insure developers and builders comply with the requirements set forth for developement and a safe home to live in. A non refundable permanent bond in the millions be required in addition to cover the inadequices in the construction and building of marginally safe homes.
