Park City, Utah Water Conservation Rebates (2025 Guide)

Park City and Weber Basin Water Conservancy District jointly administer a Landscape Incentive Program that pays $3 per square foot for converting qualifying lawn to xeriscape. The residential maximum rebate is $15,000. Applicants must submit both a site plan and an irrigation plan to Park City Planning before any turf removal begins. Applications go through mywater.weberbasin.gov, with a copy to the Park City water conservation office.

How to Apply for Park City Water Rebates

  1. 1

    Prepare a site plan and irrigation plan before applying

    Sketch a site plan showing the lawn area to be converted and the proposed xeriscape layout, including plant placements and mulch areas. Prepare an irrigation plan showing the proposed drip or low-volume irrigation system. These are required before Park City will approve the application.

    You'll need:

    • Site plan showing existing lawn and proposed xeriscape layout
    • Irrigation plan showing drip or low-volume irrigation design
  2. 2

    Submit the application at mywater.weberbasin.gov and email savewater@parkcity.org

    Apply through the Weber Basin portal at mywater.weberbasin.gov. When submitting, send a copy of your application and plans to savewater@parkcity.org. Include your property address, the planned conversion square footage, and your site and irrigation plans. Wait for written pre-approval before removing any lawn.

    You'll need:

    • Site plan and irrigation plan (required at submission)

    Complete the lawn removal and xeriscape installation after pre-approval

    Once you receive written approval from Weber Basin and Park City, remove the qualifying lawn and install the approved xeriscape plan. Photograph the conversion area before and after. Retain all receipts for plants, mulch, irrigation materials, and contractor work.

    You'll need:

    • Written pre-approval confirmation
    • Before-and-after photographs
    • Plant and material receipts
  4. 4

    Schedule a post-conversion inspection and receive your rebate

    Contact Weber Basin or Park City to schedule the post-conversion inspection. The inspector will verify the converted area against the approved site plan and confirm plant coverage and irrigation. After approval, the $3/sq ft rebate (up to $15,000) is processed.

Prepare your site plan and irrigation plan first, then apply at mywater.weberbasin.gov and copy savewater@parkcity.org. Do not start any work before written approval (last verified May 2026, parkcity.gov and weberbasin.gov).

Park City / Weber Basin Landscape Incentive Program: $3/sq ft, max $15,000

Park City and the Weber Basin Water Conservancy District offer $3 per square foot for replacing qualifying lawn with water-wise xeriscape. The residential rebate is capped at $15,000; commercial and other eligible properties can receive up to $75,000. Because Park City requires applicants to submit both a site plan and an irrigation plan to Planning before starting, this program has more front-end documentation than other Utah programs. Applications are submitted through mywater.weberbasin.gov, with a copy sent to savewater@parkcity.org. Do not remove or kill any lawn before the site plan is approved.

  • Park City municipal property
  • More than 250 square feet of living lawn to convert

  • Apply through mywater.weberbasin.gov and copy savewater@parkcity.org

Park City Water Rebate FAQs

Why do I need both a site plan and an irrigation plan?
Park City requires both documents to confirm the xeriscape design is appropriate for the site and that low-volume irrigation will replace the existing overhead sprinklers. Submitting incomplete documentation delays approval. Prepare both plans before starting the application to avoid back-and-forth with the review process.
How does the $15,000 residential cap work?
The $3/sq ft rate is applied to the total converted area. The residential rebate is capped at $15,000, which corresponds to 5,000 square feet. Projects larger than 5,000 square feet still qualify but receive a maximum of $15,000 regardless of total area converted.
Is Park City in the Weber Basin Water Conservancy District?
Yes. Park City is within the Weber Basin Water Conservancy District service area, which also covers Davis, Weber, Morgan, and Summit counties. The Park City program combines Weber Basin funding with city conservation requirements, which is why Park City has additional documentation requirements beyond the standard Weber Basin program.
