How to Get the Cash for Grass Rebate

What you get

$1.50 per square foot of turf removed and replaced with water-efficient landscape, up to $2,000 for residential properties. A pre-inspection site visit is required before removing lawn; starting without City approval makes the conversion ineligible, and the project must finish within 120 days of the pre-inspection (City of Roseville Environmental Utilities, last verified June 2026).

• Residential: $1.50/sq ft, up to $2,000

Are you eligible?

• Be a City of Roseville Environmental Utilities customer
• Property located in: Roseville
• Pre-inspection site visit before removing lawn
• Project completed within 120 days of pre-inspection

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 City of Roseville Environmental Utilities 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.
