Successful Completion - Santa Clarita City Hall Retrofit

SANTA CLARITA CITY HALL RETROFITTING COMPLETE

Work wrapped up last week on a project to better prepare Santa Clarita City Hall to withstand an earthquake.

The project officially finished just days after a powerful earthquake hit Napa, knocking facades off structures in the city’s downtown area and crippling some public buildings.
