Resident Notice - City of Katy Water System

Dear residents, it has come to our attention the City of Katy has elevated to and implemented Stage 2 of their Drought Contingency Plan, making it mandatory to restrict water usage. This notification applies only to residents and businesses who receive water from the City of Katy infrastructure.

As residents of Grand Lakes MUD 1, rest assured you do not receive water from the City of Katy, so this information can be misleading when shared on local social media groups. Each Municipal Utility District has its own water treatment infrastructure and is responsible for setting its own restrictions. While we are residents of the Katy area, we are on our own system and do not rely on the City of Katy’s infrastructure for water use and consumption.

At this time, our District has set the level to Stage 1, Voluntary Restrictions, and thank those residents who are making efforts to reduce unnecessary water consumption or waste. Likewise, we continue to recommend setting irrigation systems to water in the nighttime hours for greatest efficiency and the least amount of water evaporation.
