The Hard Facts on Soft-stories – A Town Hall Forum

A town hall forum for tenants and landlords about required seismic retrofitting in our area.

Typical Soft-story Building

What is a soft story building?
What is the threat during a catastrophic earthquake?
Is my building on “the list”? Is there a deadline?
Will I have to move?
What is the cost to landlords? To tenants?

Hear from a seismic engineer, an apartment manager, and a tenant advocate at this FREE event.

Let’s all work together to reduce our risk!
