What is a M.U.D?

A Municipal Utility District (MUD) is a political subdivision of the State of Texas authorized by the Texas Commission of Environmental Quality (TCEQ) to provide water, sewage, drainage and other municipal utility-related services within the MUD boundaries. Texas has more than 1,200 special districts, most of which are located outside of city limits and city Extra Territorial Jurisdictions (ETJ), where there are no municipal services offered, such as water, wastewater and trash collection. MUD's vary in size, but they generally serve master-planned communities of a few hundred households. Being outside of city limits, MUD's also do not have police protection from the city. Some MUD's will contract with County Sheriff Departments to have regular patrols within the district.

The publicly elected Board of Directors manages and controls all of the affairs of the MUD subject to the continuing supervision of the Texas Commission of Environmental Quality. The Board establishes policies in the interest of its residents and utility customers. A MUD may adopt and enforce all necessary charges, fees, and taxes in order to provide district facilities and services. Municipal Utility Districts are funded through bonds. Homeowners then pay off those bonds through MUD tax. As the debt decreases, MUD taxes may also decrease over time.
