Each landowner with property located in the Deer Creek Watershed is eligible to receive a rebate of 75% of approved and documented costs up to a maximum of $4,500 for project design, implementation, and/or maintenance costs for rainscaping all or part of their yards. Residential, institutional, and commercial landowners are eligible to participate.
Rainscaping practices can include features such as rain gardens, bioswales, trees and shrubs, green roofs, etc. to slow down, soak up and reuse rainwater before it carries pollutants to a local stream. Rainscaping can also be employed to solve a drainage problem, increase aesthetic appeal, improve property values, and/or attract birds and butterflies, in addition to other benefits.
You are required to attend one of the following orientations for landowners (if you haven't previously attended one) to learn more about the Rainscaping Cost-Share Program if you would like to apply. Note, if you sign up below to receive additional information about the program, you will receive a notice when the next round opens and new orientation sessions are available.
