What are a MUDs functions?
In addition to their common functions of water and wastewater service, MUDs are also legally empowered to engage in conservation, irrigation, solid waste collection and disposal, recycling efforts, and recreational activities, (such as parks, swimming pools, and sports courts). A MUD can provide for itself the recreational amenities that are approved by the Board of Directors and funded by the District. One of the most common additional MUD functions is the enforcement of deed restrictions to maintain property values within the MUD. MUDs can also provide policing of the MUD (usually contracted) in order to provide a safer community.
