Yard rebates in High Point
3 programs can pay High Point residents for yard projects: 2 run by the city, the county or the utilities and districts that serve it, and 1 open to anyone in North Carolina. The largest, NCDA Community Conservation Assistance Program (CCAP), pays up to $50,000 per household. 1 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.
