HTN: Creek Erosion in Town of Boston

Homeowners in the Town of Boston living around 18 Mile Creek are worried their homes could fall in. Water is eroding the ground from underneath, and some homeowners have experienced their land cracking off and falling into the creek. Homeowners insurance will not cover the damages if a home collapses into the creekbed because it is considered "earth movement" and is exempt from coverage. Last week, an Amherst home slid into Tonawanda Creek, leaving one home on the verge of collapse.
