We’re honored to announce that BCFSC has officially adopted the No-Cost Gravel Grant Program from the Rebuild Paradise Foundation. As Rebuild Paradise Foundation closes its doors after seven years of dedicated Camp Fire recovery work in Paradise, we want to express our deep gratitude for everything they’ve done. Their impact on the community has been tremendous, and we’re committed to carrying this program forward and expanding it to serve residents throughout Butte County.

The No-Cost Gravel Grant Program helps eligible residents improve defensible space by placing gravel on the first 5 feet around qualifying homes. If you were previously approved through the program, expect to hear from us by the end of June with next steps.

Join us in celebrating Rebuild Paradise Foundation’s incredible legacy at their final Sunset Celebration on Saturday, June 27th from 6–8 PM at Paradise Community Park (5570 Black Olive Drive, Paradise).

Stay tuned for more on future eligibility and applications.

UPDATED: Homeowners Insurance Options on the Ridge (May 2026)

We’re sharing the most current list of companies actively writing standard homeowners policies for stick-built homes in Paradise and Magalia.
This is based on what we’re seeing right now from local agents and recent activity.

A few important things to know:
• This is not the FAIR Plan/ wrap policy
• Availability depends on your specific property
• Requirements are changing often

Every home is different. What works for one property may not work for another.

If you’ve recently been able to get a policy with a company not listed here, please comment below and share. That helps everyone stay informed.

And as always, we recommend working with a local agent who understands the Ridge.
