Dear residents,
Harris County Municipal Utility District No. 345 (District) owns, operates and maintains, among
other infrastructure, a water plant, a wastewater treatment plant, two (2) lift stations, and water
and sanitary sewer lines. During the 2025 calendar year, in addition to completing various repairs
and improvements to both the District’s Wastewater Treatment Plant and Water Plant, the
District advanced its water well # 2 project to provide a second source of well water.
Construction began in October 2025 and is expected to be complete by August 2026. The rig for
the water well has now been placed on site, and more construction activity is expected to begin
soon. This project, once completed, will significantly increase the District’s self-sufficiency with
respect to its water supply. In addition, the District located and tested all of its water line valves
and made any necessary repairs to ensure proper operation. The District also conducted a
successful field test of the emergency water supply interconnect with Green Trails MUD to
verify the volume of water that could be supplied in the event of an emergency. All fire hydrants
within the District were repainted green and white.
Live-streamed videoconferencing of the Board of Directors meetings launched in October 2025,
allowing residents to watch meetings remotely and, if desired, request to speak during the public
comment portion of the agenda. Please see the Meetings tab of our District website for more
details on this videoconferencing service.
The District also levied a total tax rate of $0.1539 per $100 of taxable assessed valuation for the
year 2025, which is a reduction from the total tax rate of $0.1580 per $100 of taxable assessed
valuation for the year of 2024. From 2015 to 2025, the District has lowered the total tax rate by
approximately 50% (from $0.31 per $100 of taxable assessed valuation to $0.1539).
