I understand the water pipes broke and nothing was done quickly so the water leaked and set up a "sink hole" which they are now trying to fix. As you can see it was able to spread to a few attached property possibly because of the delay?. There was a similar problem in Winifred and they tackled it right away and it did not cause a sink hole. It goes to show if a problem is not handled promptly it can lead to bigger problems . Of course another question is
"why 2 water breaks within the same Village in such a short time"?
