Upper Lateral Program Article
Sewer Repair Reimbursement Program for Property Owners
Vallejo Flood & Wastewater District wants local realtors to know about an important reimbursement program for property owners.
The District's Upper Lateral Program helps offset the costs of repairing or replacing private sewer pipes (called laterals) for property owners in the greater Vallejo area.
Evaluations must be performed before the work is done. Owners must submit a Pre-Evaluation Questionnaire for approval. After the owner has filled out the form and submitted it, a District representative will inspect the lateral and determine if the owner qualifies for the program, and how much reimbursement can be expected.
A brochure with program details, the application form, and a simple estimate can be found on the District's website at www.VallejoWastewater.org. Click Programs: Upper Lateral Program.
It's important to remember that working on your upper lateral without proper permits may jeopardize a property owners' rights to any future reimbursements from the District. The message for homeowners is: Call us first, and we'll talk you through it. It's easy, and can save you a substantial amount of money ... in some cases well over half the cost of the sewer repair.

The recent wildfires in Northern and Southern California are now the deadliest in the state's history. To date, the fires have destroyed thousands of structures, taken more than 60 lives and counting, and wiped away an entire town. Thousands of people have been displaced and are in need of a place to live, including many in the REALTOR® family.
Through its Disaster Relief Fund, C.A.R. stands ready to help REALTOR® family members who have been
impacted by these disasters. Grants provided by the fund are used to help members of the REALTOR®
family -- REALTORS®, their staff, and Association members and their staff.
If you or any of your agents have suffered a loss from these recent fires, you may apply for assistance through the Disaster Relief Fund by completing the online application by clicking here or email disasterrelief@car.org.
Through the generous support of members, local associations, affiliates and others donating to C.A.R.'s
Disaster Relief Fund C.A.R. has been able to provide much needed resources to those in need. Please help continue this effort by making a tax-deductible donation to C.A.R.'s Disaster Relief Fund.
Last year, C.A.R. made grants totaling more than $300,000 to REALTORS® and their communities who suffered damages caused by the Sonoma County fires and Montecito mudslides, as well as victims of
hurricanes Harvey, Irma and Maria in other states.
With these disasters becoming the norm, C.A.R. is depleting its relief fund, and they have barely begun
receiving grant requests from victims of the recent fires. It's anticipated that 100 members will apply for relief grants. In light of the dire need, please consider making a donation to C.A.R.'s Disaster Relief Fund. To make your donation go further, C.A.R. has pledged to match up to $250,000 in donations.
Please donate online here
or send a check directly to:
California Community Foundation at 221 S. Figueroa St., Ste. 400, Los Angeles, CA 90012
Make checks payable to:
the California Community Foundation
and write
.A.R. Disaster Relief Fund͟
on the memo line.
In addition to these targeted REALTOR® relief efforts, C.A.R. is working closely with NAR's REALTORS® Relief Foundation (RRF) to further assist REALTORS® and to provide meaningful support to all those who lost their homes in the various impacted communities. Donations to NAR's RRF are encouraged as well.
Thank you in advance.
