After years of disaster-level landslides, Rancho Palos Verdes will finally get some federal aid. Is it enough?

Almost three years after landslides in Rancho Palos Verdes began accelerating and expanding, prompting an ongoing local emergency, federal officials have secured the area some long-requested federal aid. U.S. Sen. Adam Schiff and Rep. Ted Lieu announced Thursday that officials in Rancho Palos Verdes are set to receive almost $2.3 million for two landslide mitigation projects. These are the first federal funds directed to the landslide area since the city declared a local emergency in October 2023, when land movement began reaching unprecedented levels, tearing up roads, splitting homes and upending utilities.
