Program Overview

Fort Collins Utilities (Utilities) will provide rebates for some of the cost of certain commercial irrigation equipment as listed below. Rebates are first come, first served while funds are available. The program is subject to change without notice. Nothing in this application creates a legal entitlement to a rebate.

Property Eligibility

Qualifying equipment must be installed at an existing common area owned by a homeowners association, commercial or industrial property receiving water service from Utilities. Properties receiving water service from other entities, like neighboring water districts, are not eligible.

Applications

This application must be submitted within 60 days of equipment purchase.

Installation and Operation

Equipment must be installed within 60 days of purchase. The applicant is solely responsible for installation of the equipment. The applicant is solely responsible for securing any permits for work related to the rebates, and for compliance with all applicable laws. Utilities has no part in or responsibility for installation of the equipment.

The applicant is solely responsible for operation of the equipment. Utilities does not guarantee any estimated water or cost savings from the equipment. Utilities has no part in or responsibility for operation of the equipment.

Inspections

Upon request and with at least 72 hours notice, Utilities must be given access to the site to verify equipment installation pursuant to manufacturer’s guidelines, quantities, and performance. An inspection is required for all rebates over $1,000.

If an inspection is requested or required, no rebate payment will be made until inspection is complete and Utilities verifies proper installation.

Rebate Payments

Applications will be processed within 8 weeks of submission. Rebate payments will be mailed as a check.

Rebate amounts are listed below, provided that the rebate will not be more than the actual retail price of the equipment.

Rebates may be considered as taxable income by the IRS and State of Colorado. Applicants may wish to consult a tax advisor.

Applicants receiving rebates of $600 or more during a program year and who are not organized as a corporation will receive a 1099-MISC from Utilities in February of the subsequent year.
