Our Story
Mustang SUD began as Mustang Water Supply Corporation and was incorporated on May 13, 1966. The corporation began with 50 connections and 5 Board members. Meters were read by each customer and new memberships were limited to available capacity in the lines.
By 1980, the system had grown to around 400 customers. Also that year, the first large storage tank, 20,000 gallons, was put in place at Well #2. In 1985, Mustang was awarded a Water Certificate of Convenience and Necessity (CCN) from the State of Texas to serve over 100 sq. miles of NE Denton County.
In 1992, the Board authorized the purchase of land at FM 455 and Hwy 377 for the construction of the first elevated storage tank. The 300,000 gallon tank was erected in 1995. Also in 1995, the largest line to that date, 10″ was placed along Hwy 377 from FM 455 to Krugerville. In 1996, connections exceeded 1,000 for the first time.
In July 2001, the Board approved contracts with developers along 380 to share service rights, thus allowing the formation of Fresh Water Supply Districts within Mustang. These Districts are now better known as Paloma Creek and Savannah subdivisions.
In 2002, Mustang was awarded a Wastewater Certificate of Convenience and Necessity (CCN) for the entire district. In 2004, the first wastewater customers came online in the Cross Oaks Ranch subdivision.
Rapid growth of Mustang created the need for additional office space. In 2006, Mustang held the groundbreaking for a new office building on FM 2931. The new office was opened later that year.
Today, we have over 19,000 customers and are continuing to plan for the future and to accommodate the rapid expansion in our area.
