Wildfire mitigation program: financial assistance to counties.

Summary

The measure requires the Office of Emergency Services and the joint powers authority with Cal Fire to allocate financial assistance for home hardening to the counties ranked 7th through 10th in combined wildfire risk and social vulnerability. Funding would come from state appropriations and any federal money the authority receives, and the authority must estimate the extra money needed to expand the program. The goal is to protect the most at‑risk communities by expanding the existing wildfire mitigation program.
