CINCINNATI -- Work to stabilize a slipping Mount Adams hillside is underway.

The city issued a permit for stabilization work to Metropolitan Design and Development Monday, according to a memo from City Manager Harry Black. The company told city officials they would begin the work Monday afternoon.

Metropolitan had previously received an excavation/fill permit for work on the hillside between Oregon and Baum streets on Friday, about two weeks after a landslide damaged two Baum Street homes. Some work was already underway after that permit was issued.

The Department of Buildings and Inspections will have an inspector on site daily to monitor progress, Black wrote.
