Fry Road MUD

Fry Road MUD board has endeavored to provide quality sewer and water service while keeping water, sewer, and tax rates low. In 2003, the board signed an SPA agreement with the city of Houston which allowed the city to levy a 1% sales tax in the district, half of which was to be rebated to the Fry Road MUD District. The money from the SPA has been used judiciously to keep tax rates down, finance projects out of pocket where other districts have to sell bonds, and fund projects good for the community. The new water well and sewer rehabilitation projects are examples where other districts need to sell bonds. Examples of community projects are Sundown Elementary playground equipment and shade structure and the building of the perimeter fence for Sundown Subdivision. Other projects are recounted in the history below.

Residents should also know that Fry Road MUD pays the majority of the WHCRWA (West Harris County Regional Water Authority) fees, something most districts pass through to the customers. Water in our district is assess at $2.95 per 1000 gallons.

The board continues to manage its assets so that unexpected expenditures do not translate into higher taxes for Fry Road MUD residents and businesses. Fry Road MUD residents and businesses are recipients of some of the lowest tax rates and water rates in the area.
