Fairfax Offers Vegetation Management Grants

FAIRFAX, CA — The town of Fairfax is offering up cash to help to residents who clear their brush and trim trees.

The town is offering grants of up to $1,000 for seniors and low-income residents, and up to $500 to all regardless of age or income.

The grant money is for brush clearing and tree trimming but not home hardening, town officials said.

It is available to Fairfax residents who own or rent property.

The self-certifying program requires applicants seeking reimbursement for the work to submit photos and receipts of the work done.

Grants are offered on a first-come, first-served basis, and will be distributed until the town exhausts the $25,000 allocated to the program.
