Voluntary Residential Retrofit Information
The Voluntary Retrofit of Older Residential Wood Frame Structures is a program of the City's Building and Safety Division that is designed to assist owners with the seismic upgrade of single family homes to promote public safety and welfare by reducing the risk of earthquake-induced damage to existing homes. In the aftermath of a major seismic event, those who reside in homes rendered uninhabitable by damage incurred in the initial or subsequent events will find themselves without shelter.
