The City of Conroe on April 16 approved a series of resolutions consenting to the creation or boundary adjustments of multiple municipal utility districts (MUDs) connected to large subdivisions in Montgomery County.

Staff presented restatements and consent resolutions for Montgomery County MUD Nos. 106 and 111 and for an acreage addition request for MUD 211. City staff said these actions restate earlier council approvals made when the districts were initially created and adjust conditions related to timing and legal compliance. The actions are restatements of prior approvals and were presented to resolve timing and legal issues stated in the staff packet.

Staff described Artavia as a large, multi-district subdivision: staff stated the combined development totals about 2,150 acres with a projected 5,300 single-family homes when fully built out. The staff presentation assigned specific utilities and responsibilities across several MUDs; one MUD was described as primarily associated with utilities and another with an on-site water plant. Council approved the resolutions for MUD 106 and MUD 111 and separately approved the consent to add roughly 109 acres into Montgomery County MUD 211 (the Lone Star Landing subdivision), which staff said would add about 97 lots and bring the MUD’s total acreage to roughly 273 acres.

Council voted to approve each resolution by voice vote without further amendment.

Why it matters: Consent to MUD creation and boundary changes affects where developers can place infrastructure and who provides water and sewer service; the strategic partnership and ETJ status were discussed as part of the background in staff remarks.
