Creating a wildfire mitigation grant program.

Summary

The bill establishes the Strengthen Washington Homes program, letting the state insurance commissioner award financial grants to property owners, contractors and nonprofits that improve wildfire safety on insurable dwellings. Grants are only given if the work follows approved wildfire‑prepared standards and all required permits and inspections are obtained. It also stops insurers from denying coverage because of wildfire risk when a property has the required preparedness designation.
