Thank you for your interest in the Lane County Firewise Incentive Program.
Effective September 29th, 2016 new applications will no longer be accepted.
Grants will be awarded on a first come first serve basis; with priority given to first time applicants.
Program Overview:
Lane County offers financial grants to residents who are interested in making landscaping or structural improvements to their properties, which can increase the survivability of their home in the event of a wildfire.
Residents now have the opportunity to apply for thousands of dollars in financial assistance to replace roofs, siding, windows and doors with fire-resistant building materials and to make “Firewise” improvements to their landscaping. To qualify for financial assistance you must own a home in rural Lane County that is at risk to wildfire –that’s it!
This program is administered by the Lane County Land Management Division's Long Range Planning and Building programs, with funding provided through Title III of the Federal Secure Rural Schools and Community Self-Determination Program - Section 601 of the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008.
