How to Get the Stormwater Utility Fee Credit (Small Residential) Rebate

What you get

A recurring credit of up to 25% on the stormwater utility bill for single, two, and three-family homes (and small residential condos) that install and maintain approved best-management practices such as rain gardens, dry wells, and permeable pavers. The credit is scaled by the share of impervious area treated, capped at 25%. This is an ongoing bill credit, not a one-time cash rebate (Town of Concord Stormwater Utility; last verified June 2026).

• Residential: Ongoing stormwater bill credit: up to 25% off the stormwater fee (1-3 family homes)

What applying usually looks like

A general guide. Always confirm the exact steps on the official program page, since each provider runs its process a little differently.

1. 1

   Apply and get written approval first

   Submit your application to Town of Concord (Stormwater Utility) and wait for written approval before you remove any turf or start work. Starting early is the most common reason a rebate is denied.

2. 2

   Do the conversion

   Replace your lawn with the qualifying landscaping, following the eligibility requirements above.

3. 3

   Submit your claim

   After the work is done, submit your claim on the official program page. Confirm the exact forms, receipts, and any photos they require there, since those vary by program.
