Wichita, KS Lawn Care Equipment Rebate pilot incentivizes switch to low-emission mowers

Wichita, KS Lawn Care Equipment Rebate Pilot Switch Mowers

The city's Public Works & Utilities team estimates that up to 36% of local emissions come from nonroad vehicles like lawnmowers. The program offers $50 rebates to local residents who replace their gas-powered mowers with electric equipment. Rebate redemptions and impacts on air quality will determine if the pilot is extended beyond 2022. City council members approved the pilot as part of a $10,000 air quality campaign funded by a state grant.
