A community protection grant may be used to fund larger scale defensible space and structure fire prevention projects that benefit a larger population or community. Community protection grants may include the extension and maintenance of defensible space to enhance firefighting efforts and for improved structure and community protection.

Application for this type of grant must be in coordination with the grant administrator and the Sunrise Powerlink Fire Mitigation Grant Group. Application for community protection grants cannot be made via the website application. Please contact the grant administrator if you have an idea or recommendation for community protection grant funds.

About Us

The Sunrise Powerlink Fire Mitigation Group (SPFMG) consists of seven federal, state or local fire agencies and SDG&E. The SPFMG guide a mitigation fund for homeowner grants for the creation of defensible space around homes or, alternatively, for residential structure hardening improvements. The grants are available to eligible homeowners located in a focused area near the Sunrise transmission line corridor. The focused area may change from year to year, based on fire conditions determined by the SPFMG.
