The Town of Bassendean is offering a limited number of rebates for residents who transform their verges from grass/hardstand to waterwise verges. Rebates of up to $500 will be available to eligible residents (eligibility criteria provided below).
Please note that if a group of neighbours wishes to undertake their verge transformations together, they can apply for a Community Grant of up to $2,000 dollars, please see this link and contact [email protected] to discuss your group transformation project.
To apply for a rebate, residents must be eligible and provide a photo of the current condition of their verge.
To receive the rebate, residents must have applied for the rebate program, received confirmation that they are eligible and have been accepted into the program, have created a waterwise verge that meets the program requirements (see below), provide photos of the verge after transformation works have been completed and send through copies of their receipts when claiming the rebate.
Funding is limited and will be granted for eligible applications on a first come first served basis until the pool of grant funding is exhausted. A maximum of $500 will be available per verge application.
Program Requirements and Eligibility Criteria
Please note that rebates will not be paid until July 2024. This initiative is proudly co-funded by Water Corporation’s Waterwise Greening Scheme and forms part of our ambition for Town of Bassendean to be a leading waterwise city.
