What do I need to submit for the rebate?

If this is your first rebate for your property and you have completed a Health Department workshop in the past three years, you may submit your rebate application with a copy of your invoice.  If it has been longer than three years, remember to complete the refresher quiz and attach to your application materials.

If you have not completed a Health Department workshop, you may complete the Health Department’s online training and submit your application with the attached quiz and invoice.

You will need to submit:

  • Rebate application form.
  • Copy of the receipt or paid invoice for the work completed.
  • Copy of your completed refresher quiz (if you took the training online or it has been longer than 3 years since in-person workshop).

If this in an additional rebate for this property, you may attend another workshop or complete a refresher quiz to receive the rebate. 

You will need to submit:

  • Rebate application form.
  • Copy of the receipt or paid invoice for the work completed.
  • Copy of your completed refresher quiz
