Llano County Municipal Utility District #1
The Lake LBJ Municipal Utility District OfficeThe LCMUD #1, formed around the original Water District in Blue Lake, is a state chartered municipal utility district and operates as a Texas state municipal entity. It is also subject to the rules and regulations of the Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission regarding water quality.

In addition to the operation of the water plant and the distribution lines, it is responsible for six (6) miles of streets in Blue Lake, having assumed that responsibility from the property owners association in 1987. It also contracts for garbage disposal for its residents.  In 2000 it assumed the responsibility for streetlights from the property owners association.

In 1996 the District contracted with the Lake LBJ Municipal Utility District for waste disposal and treatment and in that connection built transmission lines, lift stations, and provided grinder pumps to all properties in Blue Lake, Deerhaven and Sandy Harbor that elected to participate in the program. The system was completed early in 1997 at a cost of $2,100,000, funded by a loan from the Rural Development Administration of $990,000 and a governmental grant of $1,100,000.

It also constructed a return water line from the treatment plant to the golf course to provide effluent water for the course. The return water line was paid for ($165,000) by the property owners association after it received a 10 year loan for that purpose. The District provides the maintenance of the line from the treatment plant to the pumps that serve the golf course.

In 1998 the District contracted with the Lake LBJ Municipal Utility District for fire and emergency medical services. The community approved a tax rate of 11 ½ cents per thousand of the taxable value of property to pay for this service.

The District office also serves as a Community Office for Blue Lake and handles the business affairs for the POA and its officers.  It is the focal point for all visitors to Blue Lake seeking information about real estate, maps, directions, permits and the like.

The District is operated by a board of directors elected by property owners in Blue Lake. It also has two full time employees who manage the daily business affairs of both the District and the POA.
