Chateau Woods, Texas

Chateau Woods is an unincorporated community in southern Montgomery County, Texas, United States, that was formerly an incorporated municipality.

Although the local government tried to maintain unpaved roads in the city by laying down gravel, the streets deteriorated on an annual basis.

[2] As frustration among residents grew, calls for the city to rejoin unincorporated Montgomery County gained popularity in the early 1990s.

A slate of candidates who supported that idea were elected and on August 14, 1993, citizens voted to dis-incorporate and form a Municipal Utility District (MUD).

[1] The Municipal Utility District was formed to maintain the area's septic system and ensure that the state was reimbursed – which it was, several years later.
