About 30 homes are impacted and the mudslide has shut down the road., according to the Sheriff’s Office. Shortly after 5 p.m., state Sen. Josh Becker said via Twitter that Woodside’s town engineer and geologist determined that debris removal on Patrol Road wouldn’t cause a further slide. “The evacuation advisory for the 600-800 block of Patrol Rd will remain in effect as more land movement could occur. Woodside will continue to monitor & assess the area.”
