Yard rebates in Menlo Park

7 programs can pay Menlo Park residents for yard projects: 4 run by the city, the county or the utilities and districts that serve it, and 1 open to anyone in California. The largest, BAWSCA Rain Barrel and Cistern Rebate (San Mateo County), pays up to $200 per household.

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