San Rafael Wildfire Prevention Grants

How it works

Fire Safe Marin says the San Rafael Fire Department and Marin Wildfire Prevention Authority partner to offer grant opportunities to reduce wildfire risk on properties in San Rafael. Residents apply through their Defensible Space Report, and the agencies automatically consider them for funding through both programs.

What the money covers

The source says grant funds reimburse completed defensible space and/or home hardening projects identified in the evaluation.

Amounts and matching

The source does not give a San Rafael-specific dollar maximum on the page we found. It says staff will award the maximum possible grant based on the type of work completed and the amount spent.

How to apply

Residents apply through their Defensible Space Report. The source says residents can receive funding from both MWPA and the San Rafael Fire Department and will be automatically considered for grants through both agencies.

Timing and deadlines

The Fire Safe Marin grants page identifies the San Rafael program as a current financial assistance program, but the San Rafael page itself should be checked for the current application status because the amount and timing are not stated on the page snippet we found.
