Residential Rebates
Residential Grass Removal Rebate Closed on Oct. 31, 2026
This rebate received extraordinary participation this program year. Scottsdale Water is excited residents are converting grass to an Arizona-friendly landscape. This rebate will reopen next season. During the winter months, Bermuda grass is dormant, making it difficult to properly remove.
Do not begin your grass removal project until your application is submitted, and you’ve received a Notice to Proceed from the city. Check back in May for details on next year’s program. Scottsdale Water cannot guarantee rebate requirements, eligibility, or the grass removal rebate amount until rebate launch.
How to prepare for qualifying for the next grass removal rebate season
For a general reference of the upcoming residential grass removal rebate program requirements, you can view the previous application and make your plan. New program requirements are still being reviewed but are anticipated to be similar to last year's application.
If you are not doing the landscape conversion work yourself, Conservation recommends receiving more than one bid. Yards must be maintained even if a rebate is planned.
