Overview

§ 01

This lot has the most beautiful view in the subdivision, looking 1/3 mile down a beautiful canal to the west. This is a freshwater canal with kayaking and other non-motorized boating and fishing. Cool breezes in the evening. Watch the sunset reflecting on the water from your deck as you sip on some iced tea or a margarita. Developer says he is building a marina with access to Tres Palacios and Matagorda Bays. Prices are going up. This area has so much history, with the original inhabitants the Karankawa Indians and La Salle's shipwrecked ship La Belle being found in Matagorda Bay (it is now on display at the Bob Bullock Museum in Austin). This subdivision was Camp Hulen during WW2, where our soldiers were trained in anti-aircraft warfare.

MUD Disclosure (§49.452)

§ 03 · Data moat

● §49.452 Notice

Not in archive

This MUD is not yet in our §49.452 archive. We'll add it on request.

Texas Water Code §49.452 requires districts to publish annual notices with tax rate, bonded indebtedness, and assessed value. Most Harris-area MUDs publish these; a handful managed by Inframark do not.

Request this notice

● What this tells you

The §49.452 notice is the only public document that lists a MUD's exact tax rate, outstanding bond debt, and the assessed value used to compute your taxes — direct from the district, not the MLS. If the district is newer or has more bonds outstanding than its neighbors, your effective tax rate will be higher here than just across the street.
