$7/ sq ft
Data verified May 10, 2026. Not affiliated with WSL.
LVVWD customers receive $7 per square foot for the first 10,000 sq ft (SNWA's $5 base plus LVVWD's $2 bonus) and $4.50 per square foot above that. The LVVWD bonus has been in effect since January 1, 2025.
You must have at least 400 sq ft of living grass at the time of the pre-approval inspection. Dead grass, dirt, gravel, and existing artificial turf do not qualify.
No. Starting any work before written pre-approval permanently disqualifies you from the rebate. SNWA must inspect your existing grass before any conversion begins.
No. The Water Smart Landscapes rebate requires conversion to a water-efficient landscape with at least 50 percent live plant coverage at maturity, drip irrigation, and proper mulch. Artificial turf is not eligible.
You receive a physical check mailed to you. SNWA issues it within 30 days of recording your conservation easement with Clark County, which happens after the post-installation inspection passes.
You have 12 months from your pre-conversion inspection to complete the project and schedule your post-installation inspection. Most participants finish within 60 days.
As of September 18, 2025, SNWA only pays for Functional Turf conversions — grass that is actively maintained and irrigated. Patches of dead, dormant, or already-dried-out grass do not qualify.
