Yard drainage in Grand Lakes
A 1,250-acre master-planned community in Houston’s extraterritorial jurisdiction, spread across Fort Bend and Harris counties. Several utility districts serve it, and the lakes it is named for are part of how the development handles water.
Lakes, Districts and Lots
The lakes and the channels between them are district or association infrastructure. So are the streets and storm sewers. Grand Lakes is served by more than one numbered MUD, and the right one to call for a street problem depends on your section.
Your lot, from the slab to the property line, is yours. That is where a drainage contractor works.
This site did not find a published report of flooding naming Grand Lakes.
If the Fix Moves Soil
| Side of the line | Rule this site found |
|---|---|
| Fort Bend County | Permit for any change in elevation of six inches or more, for fill or excavation over 500 cubic yards per acre, and for any floodplain work. Permit Administration: 281-633-7500. |
| Harris County | Permit for grading, filling or paving on a lot inside the mapped Special Flood Hazard Area. |
Most backyard regrades are small, but a regrade across the whole lot can reach the Fort Bend threshold. Ask the contractor to confirm before work starts.
