The Town offers a program that provides residents who complete a
County RainScapes projectwith a supplemental rebate of up to 50% of the County rebate amount , with the total combined rebate limited to 85% of the total cost of the project .
Although the County program closed to new applicants on March 3 , 2023 , residents are encouraged to take advantage of the Town ' s Consulting Water Management Program ( see below ) to identify a suitable Rainscapes project for their property in anticipation of the County ' s reopening of the program on August 1 , 2023 .
Please note that this program is only available to residents who apply to the County RainScapes program on or after 7/21/22 , which is the date that the Town Council approved , funded , and advertised the Town’s supplemental program . The Town’s program is forward looking , consistent with other Town subsidy programs that are designed to encourage more residents to apply , not to reward those who have already done so .
If you need help identifying a suitable RainScapes project for your property , you may sign up on the Town website to participate in the Town ' s free
Consulting Water Management Program
, wherein the Town ' s consulting engineer will visit your property and provide a written report with recommendations on improving water drainage and runoff , including recommendations for RainScapes - eligible projects .
After completing a RainScapes project , a homeowner should submit copies of project receipts and a copy of the paid County rebate receipt to the Town to receive the supplemental rebate .
