How do I qualify for a California lawn rebate?
Most cities and water districts require applicants to be residents of their respective areas. Often, these artificial grass conversion projects require a preexisting lawn that has been well irrigated and is healthy to qualify for rebate programs.

The city of Modesto is offering $2 per square foot for a maximum of $3,000 per residential water account and $6,000 per commercial water account for the conversion of a preexisting grass area to artificial turf. Remember that funding is limited; therefore, applications are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis.
