Apache Shores Service Area
In December of 1997,
the District purchased the Apache Shores Utility
Company and took over the certificate of convenience and necessity to provide service to
the 570 existing customers in the Apache Shores subdivision. In April of 1998, the
District made the first connection of the District
surface water system to Apache Shores and by September of 1998 the system was fully connected.
The initial Apache Shores improvements were funded by a revenue bond of $2,100,000 issued by the
Texas Water Development Board. Additional improvements are made as funds are available. Apache
Shores residents pay slightly higher water bills to help pay off this loan. All
rates and fees are posted.
The Apache Shores Subdivision is operated as a separate certificated area, and has not yet
been annexed into the District.
