Montgomery County Municipal
Utility District No. 8 was created on September 12,
1972 by an Order of the Texas Water Rights Commission,
presently known as the
Texas Commission on Environmental Quality.
Pursuant to the provisions of Chapters 49 and 54 of the
Texas Water Code, the District is empowered to
purchase, operate and maintain all facilities, plants
and improvements necessary to provide water, sanitary
sewer service, storm sewer drainage, irrigation, solid
waste collection and disposal, including recycling,
parks and recreational facilities for the residents of
the District. The District is also empowered to
contract for or employ its own peace officers with
powers to make arrests and to establish, operate and
maintain a fire department to perform all fire-fighting
activities within the District. The Board of
Directors held its first meeting on December 27, 1972,
and the first bonds were sold on September 17, 1973.
The District has entered into a joint venture with
Montgomery County Municipal Utility District No. 9 for
the construction and operation of a Wastewater Treatment
Facility. Oversight responsibility of the
Wastewater Treatment Facility is by the District.
