There’s still time this summer and early fall to complete your project and receive a Water Smarty grass replacement rebate. Projects must be completed with final rebate applications filed by October 1, 2019.
Residential projects can receive a 50% rebate, up to $2,000. To get started, go to the rebates page for the program details and application forms.
The program suits projects that plan to remove lawn and replace it with a permeable hardscape material, like crushed rock/gravel, pavers, or decomposed granite. Past projects have used these materials for extra parking, utility areas, patios, and walkways. Drought tolerant plants on a drip system can cover 25% of the project area.
