Yard rebates in Mississauga
6 programs can pay Mississauga residents for yard projects: 6 run by the council or the utilities that serve it. The largest, Credit Valley Conservation Landowner Action Fund, pays up to $15,000 per household. 3 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.
