Requirements

  • Apply and get approval before removing any lawn.
  • Mulch the converted area.
  • It's a voucher, not cash: up to $300 per residential meter for compost and mulch from the City's vendor, delivered to the curb (at least 4 cubic yards). Labor isn't covered.
  • Owners of homes on City water apply first; a project started before approval doesn't qualify. Front and back yards count; the strip between the street and sidewalk doesn't.
  • Cover the lawn with cardboard or weed fabric within 60 days of approval and send a photo; the City then issues the voucher, good for 60 days, toward 4 inches of mulch first and then 1 inch of compost.
  • The City may photograph the property and use the photos for outreach.

Steps, in order

  1. Apply on City of West Sacramento’s site and wait for approval. Lawn removed before approval usually does not qualify.
  2. Remove the lawn and plant to the requirements above.
  3. Send what the program page asks for once the work is done.
