Seismic Retrofit Program
The 1994 earthquake remain heavily ingrained in the minds of many Los Angels citizens: we had many, actually to many, collapsed soft-story apartment buildings, with squashed cars underneath and red-and yellow-tags. Many landlords and tenants who desperately turned to government for financial aid to rebuild and help find temporary homes to move into while repairs were made.
In what was considered to be long overdue, the City Council recently passed the Earthquake Hazard Reduction Ordinance to establish mandatory standards for earthquake hazard reduction in wood-frame buildings with soft, weak, or open-front walls and existing non-ductile concrete buildings.
