Does the District offer rebates for customer replacement of fixtures and appliances with water-saving ones?
No, we cannot. The “anti-donation” clause of the State Constitution (Article IX, Sec. 14) prevents the District from making such rebates to individuals. Cities in New Mexico that have such programs, such as Santa Fe, are charter or home rule cities that are not bound by that clause of the Constitution. We do encourage ratepayers to make such improvements in their homes to reduce their water bills and to conserve water.
