What is a Municipal Utility District?
A Municipal Utility District (MUD) is a local governmental entity organized for the purpose of providing safe drinking water and sanitary sewer service to the areas within its boundaries. Additionally, a MUD can exercise other typical governmental powers, including, but not limited to, drainage relief within its boundaries, the levy and collection of ad valorem taxes, issuing bonds with voter authorization, charge for authorized services, adopt and enforce rules and regulations to accomplish the purposes for which the MUD was created, develop and maintain certain public improvements such as parks and jogging trails, provide solid waste management services, and provide police protection services. However, not all MUDs provide all of these services. While the powers of a MUD may seem very broad, MUDs are one of the most highly regulated and controlled governmental entities in the State of Texas. The powers of a MUD are limited to those expressly provided for in the Texas Water Code and the Texas Constitution and there is significant oversight provided by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ).

MUD 364 Trail Update – Phase 2 is OPEN!
Phase 2 of the new trails is now open for pedestrian traffic. Phase 2 is located from Tylermont Drive to Coles Crossing Drive by the lap pool.
Phase 1 of the trail system opened in Mid-January. Phase 1 is located from Cypress Hall Drive to Coles Crossing Drive.
There are site furnishings to be added including benches, garbage cans, drinking fountains and dog/pet waste stations. These are being installed upon receipt from the manufacturers. Landscaping and new signage will follow at a later date.
As the trails open, please remember to pick up after your pets. E-coli bacteria from pet waste is the number 1 contributor to Cypress Creek contamination. A clean Cypress Creek benefits us all.
Thank you for your patience as we strive to deliver a quality and lasting trail system.
Phases 2 and 3 Remain Closed to Public – Please Stay Out of Fenced Areas
Phases 2 and 3 of the Trail Project (main loop and “T-Loop”) remain closed to the public. For your safety, please keep out of all fenced areas and refrain from moving or bypassing construction fences and orange construction barricades/barrels. While work may not be actively in progress, the fenced area is part of the project site and residents must stay out of the area for their safety and the safety of our contractors. Continued public interference could cause costly project delays.
In the meantime, we encourage you to visit Phase 1 of the Trail Project which was completed in mid-January!
