If you’re in an old pier-and-post home, their grants can also defray the cost of putting in a concrete foundation — and, of course, bracing and bolting your house to that new foundation. Meanwhile, if you’re interested in the grant program as a homeowner, there’s a bit of bad news: It’s currently closed to new applications for the year. She said they had a “positive discussion,” and that the builders asked lots of great questions. These grants amount to a significant percentage of the cost of doing this work (provided, again, that the homeowner already has a concrete foundation). Maffei says that she has 169 local people signed up for the grant program, and three contractors aren’t enough to service all of them. Maffei is in Humboldt this week because the Earthquake Authority — a quasi-autonomous non-profit organization set up by the state that provides earthquake insurance to homeowners — has a program that can make these brace and bolt retrofits a lot more affordable to homeowners.
