San Francisco Soft-Story Ordinance

San Francisco created The Mandatory Soft Story Retrofit Program (MSSP) in 2013. It was created as a multi-year, community-based effort to ensure the safety of San Francisco’s housing stock by retrofitting the older, wood-framed, multi-family buildings in soft-story condition.

As part of this program, all affected property owners were sent notices beginning in September 2013 and were required to submit their screening forms to DBI by September 15, 2014. DBI has achieved over a 99% response to the program.
