Potable water for each residence, school, and business in the City of University Park is provided through a network of pipes commonly referred to as the "distribution system".
University Park has partnered with WaterSmart to provide an online Customer Water Use Portal helping residents monitor water consumption while at home or away, avoid costly leaks, and contribute to the City's water-saving goals.
Drinking water in University Park is provided by the Dallas County/Park Cities Municipal Utility District (MUD). The MUD is a special-purpose local government governed by an elected five-member Board of Directors.
