Yard rebates in Cedar Park

6 programs can pay Cedar Park residents for yard projects: 2 run by the city, the county or the utilities and districts that serve it, and 2 open to anyone in Texas. The largest, Texas A&M Forest Service Invasive Plant Solutions (TIPS) Cost-Share, pays up to $7,000 per household. 2 ask for a plan or plant list before they approve a project.

Utility programs only apply to that utility’s customers, so check who supplies your water and power.
