According to a tort claim filed by the family Thursday, an 8-inch diameter water pipe, which was owned and maintained by the city, burst and caused the landslide.
According to city records, those types of pipes are prone to cataclysmic failure.
The Surdi’s lawyers cited a city report from HDR Engineering in 2012, which warned Bellevue to replace the asbestos concrete pipes. The engineers’ warning about the pipe was quoted in the claim: “When it fails, it fails catastrophically, causing not only utility damage, but private property damage.” The Surdi’s claim said they were injured from being thrown out of bed during the slide. They also said they now have post-traumatic stress disorder and have also passed out from the stress.in an agreement reached with the family.
