Water Efficiency Rebate
Overview
The Metropolitan Council, through funding from the Clean Water Land and Legacy Amendment, has awarded the City of Apple Valley a $35,000 water efficiency grant. The goal of the water efficiency grant program is to improve municipal water use in cities that are supplied with 100% groundwater and identified as having water supply issues by helping to conserve water use. As a result of this grant funding the City of Apple Valley is offering rebates to residents who replace existing devices with specified water-efficient devices purchased July 1, 2022, through June 30, 2024 (or until funds are depleted).
