ON THE AGENDAHouston City Council · 2025-11-12

The City Council is considering an ordinance to allow a water and utility district in Montgomery County (Municipal Utility District No. 96) to expand its boundaries by adding about 8.8 acres of vacant land planned for single-family homes.

What it means for you

This item primarily affects future residents of the proposed single-family development near Northpark Drive and Sorters McClellan Road, who would receive water, wastewater, and stormwater services through the district; the land remains within Houston's extraterritorial jurisdiction and any utility construction plans must still receive City approval.

Outcome

On the 11/12/2025 council agenda. Outcome recorded in official minutes (minutes integration pending).
