Landscape Transformation Program 

Serving as an overarching program, the Landscape Transformation Program includes both the Irrigation Retrofit Program and the Turf Replacement Program. 

Turf Replacement Program

Removing turf grass is a big step towards reducing outdoor water usage. Through a partnership with SoCal WaterSmart, homeowners are incentivized to replace their turf grass with more sustainable landscaping options by offering rebates for eligible participants. Visit YourSmartYard.org  for discounts, deisgn help, expert plant guidance, and more. 

Learn more about the program and check for eligibility here.  

Follow these 5 steps to join the Turf Replacement Program!

Step 1 – Preparation 

  • Design a landscape plan. Eligible customers may access discounts and landscape help from YourSmartYard.org. 
  • Take 5 photos of your yard, including landmarks.  
  • Obtain a copy of your most recent water bill.  

Step 2 – Reserve your rebate funds 

  • Submit your photos and recent water bill online. 
  • DO NOT start the project until your pre-application is approved.  
    • Removing your grass before your application is approved automatically deems you ineligble from the program. 

Step 3 – Complete the project 

  • DIY the transformation or hire a certified landscape professional.  
  • You have 180 days to complete the project and apply for a rebate. 

Step 4 – Apply for the rebate 

  • Submit 8 photos of your yard, including landmarks, and a copy of your most recent water bill for approval 

Step 5 – Receive rebate check by mail 

  • You will receive your check 8-10 weeks after your rebate is approved.
