< Return to Rebates Applications for this rebate are accepted from January 1, 2021 through to December 15, 2021. A limited number of rebates are available on a first come, first served basis. While incentives last, homeowners can access a rebate of up to $250 when using graded site-cut timber for structural use in renovations and new construction requiring a building permit. Homeowners in RDN Electoral Areas who harvest and use timber on the same site can take advantage of this rebate.
How to Receive Your Rebate
Submit the program application form along with the original receipt for the grading service.
Upon receiving this completed form and the original receipt, the RDN will mail a rebate cheque of up to $250 to the property owner. (The rebate will not exceed the value of the fee charged for the grading service as shown on the receipt).
