Nevada Water Rebates

Henderson, Nevada Water Rebates

Henderson residents can receive two separate payments for removing turf: the SNWA Water Smart Landscapes rebate (administered by the Southern Nevada Water Authority) and a supplemental bonus from the City of Henderson. You apply to SNWA first, then Henderson. The combined value can reach $5,575 or more depending on project size and trees planted.

What the stated caps add up to in Henderson

Turf rebates, stormwater fee credits, tree programs, and federal cost-share are listed separately. A dollar is included in the total only when that program states a cap and is still open. Fee credits stated as a percentage, and USDA programs with no published dollar figure, stay on the list and stay out of the total.

Sum of stated caps: $5751 open program with a stated dollar cap. This is not a payout and not a promise the programs can be combined.

Common steps for every program in this guide

  1. Confirm you are a Henderson Utility Services customer. Check your water bill. Henderson Utility Services must be your water provider for both rebates. Some Henderson addresses are served by LVVWD (Las Vegas Valley Water District) - LVVWD customers receive an additional $2 per square foot on top of the base SNWA rate but do not receive the Henderson city bonus.
  2. Apply online at snwa.com and schedule the pre-conversion site visit. Submit the residential application at snwa.com/rebates/wsl. SNWA will schedule a pre-conversion inspection. Do not remove any turf before the inspector visits - conversions without prior SNWA approval are ineligible.
  3. Complete the conversion and schedule the post-conversion inspection. Remove qualifying turf and install desert-friendly landscaping as described in your approved plan. Contact SNWA to schedule the post-conversion site visit. SNWA will verify the area and calculate the rebate payment.
  4. Apply for the Henderson supplemental rebate. Once your SNWA rebate is confirmed, submit the City of Henderson supplemental rebate application at cityofhenderson.com. Include documentation of the SNWA approval and list any qualifying trees planted.

Henderson Water Rebate FAQs

Do I need to apply to SNWA and the City of Henderson separately?
Yes. These are two separate programs administered by two separate agencies. Apply to SNWA first at snwa.com/rebates/wsl. After SNWA approves your project and pays the rebate, apply for the Henderson supplemental rebate at cityofhenderson.com.
What if my address is served by LVVWD instead of Henderson Utility Services?
LVVWD (Las Vegas Valley Water District) customers still qualify for the SNWA Water Smart Landscapes rebate at $5 per square foot. LVVWD customers also receive an additional $2 per square foot LVVWD bonus. The City of Henderson supplemental rebate of $575 is only available to Henderson Utility Services customers.
Does artificial turf qualify as the replacement material?
No. Neither SNWA nor the City of Henderson allow artificial turf as the replacement material. Replacement must be desert-friendly plants, decomposed granite, mulch, or other approved low-water ground cover listed in the SNWA approved plant guide.
Is there a maximum rebate per property?
SNWA pays $5 per square foot for the first 10,000 square feet and $2.50 per square foot thereafter, per property per fiscal year (July 1 through June 30). The Henderson supplemental is $575 per property plus $50 per qualifying tree. There is no stated cap on the SNWA portion for large landscapes beyond the rate tier.
