Extended Registration Deadline: Earthquake Brace + Bolt Grants for Fremont Homeowners

The registration deadline for California’s *Earthquake Brace + Bolt grant program* [ https://www.earthquakebracebolt.com/ ] has been extended through March 26, 2025, offering eligible homeowners up to $3,000 toward a residential seismic retrofit. This grant program aims to help homeowners lessen the potential for damage to their homes during an earthquake by "bracing" the crawl space, when necessary, and "bolting" the foundation to the frame. Only raised-foundation wood-framed homes built before 1980 qualify for the program. For income-eligible homeowners, a supplemental grant above the $3,000 may be available. For more info visit the program website at *earthquakebracebolt.com [ http://www.earthquakebracebolt.com ]* [ https://www.californiaresidentialmitigationprogram.com/our-seismic-retrofit-programs/the-retrofits/ebb-retrofit ].

Also, the *Earthquake Soft Story* [ https://www.californiaresidentialmitigationprogram.com/our-seismic-retrofit-programs/the-retrofits/ess-retrofit ] retrofit program is open and accepting applications. An Earthquake Soft-Story retrofit reinforces houses with a living space over a garage and makes these houses more resistant to earthquake damage caused by ground shaking. In this type of seismic retrofit, the foundation is bolted to the frame of the house, perimeter walls of the lowest story are braced, and the walls at the garage door (or any other large opening) are strengthened with plywood, steel, or other proprietary elements.

*See if you qualify* [ https://www.californiaresidentialmitigationprogram.com/our-seismic-retrofit-programs/see-if-you-qualify ] for one of these programs and then *register online* [ https://www.californiaresidentialmitigationprogram.com/our-seismic-retrofit-programs/how-to-register ]. 

For more information about *earthquake preparedness* [ https://www.fremont.gov/residents/emergency-preparedness/earthquake ], please visit the City’s website.

"About the grant program: California Residential Mitigation Program (CRMP) was created as a joint-powers-authority entity formed by its members, the California Earthquake Authority (CEA), a public instrumentality of the State of California, and the California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES). CRMP is a legally separate entity from its members."
