Homeowners with red-zoned properties on the Port Hills overlooking Christchurch will receive updates on their situation next week, the Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Authority said today.
Since June, 406 properties on the Port Hills have been red-zoned due to the life risk associated with rock fall and cliff collapse.
A further 45 properties are still zoned white while the final analysis on their land is completed.
Cera chief executive Roger Sutton said owners of eligible properties in the Port Hills would receive information about their red zone offer from next week.
He said the government offer would be "very similar" to that offered to owners of eligible properties on flat land.
