Rain Check: Incentive for residents on clean water projects
Are you a homeowner, business, or non-profit interested in controlling stormwater on your property while improving the health of local streams and quality of life in your community?
The new Rain Check Rebate Program allows property owners to receive rebates on the cost of installing green solutions to stormwater runoff.
A major cause of water pollution is stormwater from a rainstorm that picks up trash, motor oil, lawn fertilizer and other chemicals that accumulate on our roads, parking lots, roofs, and driveways and then wash into our stream and rivers.
The county will provide up to $2,000 to residents and up to $20,000 to businesses and non-profits for clean water projects to help install rain barrels, rain gardens, permeable pavement, green roofs, and more!
You can also receive a discount on the new impervious surface fee. Attend a workshop hosted by our Department of Environmental Resources to find out how you can qualify for a Rain Check Rebate.
