Requirements
- Apply and get approval before removing any lawn.
- A pre-inspection comes first, with a sketch or design of the new landscape: call (909) 875-1804 to schedule it. Finish within 6 months of approval, then schedule the final inspection.
- At least 500 sq ft, unless the lot is under 4,500 sq ft. The project must meet your city and county landscape ordinances.
- At least 33% living plant cover at maturity, except where artificial turf is used. Cover the whole area with a layer permeable to air and water: rock, bark, un-grouted flagstone or pavers, or permeable artificial turf; no concrete.
- The rebate pays back itemized, dated receipts and never more than the purchase amount; a W-9 is needed for $600 or more. Keep the landscape for as long as you own the property.
Steps, in order
- Apply on West Valley Water District’s site and wait for approval. Lawn removed before approval usually does not qualify.
- Remove the lawn and plant to the requirements above.
- Send what the program page asks for once the work is done.
