What the stated caps add up to in Round Rock
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: $5001 open program with a stated dollar cap. This is not a payout and not a promise the programs can be combined.
