As all of our water comes from NTMWD (North Texas Muticipal Water District)

Who We Are

1. About Us

The North Texas Municipal Water District (NTMWD) provides vital wholesale water, wastewater, and solid waste management services to more than two million people who call North Texas their home.

2. Board of Directors

The 13 Member Cities appoint members to the North Texas Municipal Water District Board of Directors, the governing body of the District.

North Texas continues to grow at an astounding rate, attracting people and businesses with its thriving economy, friendly culture and standard of living. Our water supplies, whether used for life, safety, health, recreation or industry, are an integral part of continuing this positive trend.  

The North Texas Municipal Water District (NTMWD) provides wholesale treated water to a service area with more than 2.3 million people in a 2,200 square mile area. NTMWD’s service area includes some of the fastest-growing counties in the country, so careful long-range water planning is essential for sustaining quality of life. 

Using the extreme conditions Texas experienced during a “drought of record,” planners develop scenarios to help reduce the impact of water scarcity. The statewide drought of record spanned seven years in the 1950s and spurred the creation of the long-range planning processes used today.  

While the drought of record for the entire state was the drought of the 1950s, portions of the state have experienced more severe drought at different times, such as the drought of 2011-2015. Regional and local water planners look closely at historical weather to ensure there will be adequate supply during a repeat drought of record scenario for their area.   

State water planning is conducted in five-year cycles. The upcoming water plan will be finalized in 2027 and has a 2080 planning horizon. The reason for the planning timeline is based on the array of factors that can impact water supply, including rapid population change, weather patterns and drought. Additionally, long-term projects like new reservoirs can take decades to complete.  

Because of its large size and diverse climate conditions and geography, multiple factors must be considered when developing a water plan for Texas. The bottom-up structure adopted in 1997 allows plans to be developed and assessed by local entities before they are compiled and moved to the state level.  

Texas is divided into 16 water planning regions, which are administered by the Texas Water Development Board. NTMWD is part of Region C Water Planning Group, which includes the Dallas-Ft. Worth metropolitan area as well as numerous rural communities. Region C contributes 30 percent of Texas’ gross domestic product and contains 27 percent of our state’s population while accounting for only 10 percent of statewide water used annually.

WE will hold a Club Board meeting at 5:30pm for our DG
