The city is planning a chlorine conversion for its main water system this spring, which includes MUD 128. The dates are March 1 – 29th. The current plan is to start sending out free chlorine water around 5am on March 1st.

From Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Office:

We are excited to announce the opening of the new Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Office Annex building! The building is located at 5855 Sienna Springs Way, Missouri City, Texas, 77459. The office is located in the same county building which holds the Tax Office.

The annex is open to ALL citizens of Fort Bend County. A deputy will be stationed at the annex and available to take reports via phone or walk-in! Hours are Monday to Friday, 8:00AM to 4:00 PM.

As part of the MUD’s contract extension with Best Trash, Best Trash will be providing one free 65-gallon trash cart to each resident at the end of October.

Please note that lost or stolen trash, or recycle carts, can be replaced for $75.00 each by contacting Best Trash at customerservice@besttrashtexas.com.

Best Trash will replace any carts that are defective or otherwise become unusable due to normal wear and tear at no charge. Please contact Best Trash at 281-313-2378 for any additional information or questions.

Effective October 1, 2021, the District’s contract for supplemental patrolling is now with the Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Department.

For non-emergency issues, they can be reached at (281) 341-4665.

Please dial 911 for emergencies.

Recently, we have received several questions related to law enforcement within the Riverstone community, and we want to provide clarity on the limited role the MUDs play in that area.

1. MUDs are not responsible for law enforcement – MUDs can only provide resources (typically funding) to assist law enforcement agencies of the County or City.
2. The entities with primary responsibility for crime prevention and law enforcement (patrolling, schedules, procedures, etc.) in Riverstone are:
   • Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Department for MUDs 128, 129, and 149
   • City of Missouri City Police Department for MUD 115
3. The Riverstone MUDs give funding to local law enforcement agencies for supplemental patrolling within Riverstone. Their current contract for these services is with the Fort Bend County Constables (Pct 4) office.
4. If you have any concerns related to law enforcement in Riverstone, you should address your questions directly to the responsible entities: the Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Department, Fort Bend County Constable Precinct 4, or the City of Missouri City Police Department.  They have the ability to change the current patrolling or other law enforcement practices in Riverstone.
5. Please note that any private security resources outside of the framework described above would need to be done with the approval of your HOA.
