Emergency Operations Update – May 3, 2024

Over the past week the Brazos River has risen approximately 20 feet and is forecasted to crest at 42.5 feet on Wednesday, May 8. At this level, the FBCLID 2 flood gates will close, but restricted gravity drainage through the flood gates is still possible. Fortunately, the rain forecast over the next seven days is less than 0.5 inches. The District is actively monitoring conditions and is prepared to respond if the forecast changes. The pump stations have been tested and operators are on stand-by if needed.

2023 Tax Update

2023 tax statements for FBCLID 2 have been mailed and also available online through the Fort Bend County Tax Collector website. In 2023, FBCLID 2 changed the tax collection process. Previously residents paid the FBCLID 2 private tax collector, but now the Fort Bend County Tax Collector includes the FBCLID 2 tax bill on a consolidated tax statement along with the City, County, and FBISD. Residents should not expect a separate FBCLID2 tax statement this year.

2023 Tax Update: Tax Statements Delayed

Fort Bend County has announced there will be a delay in the mailing of property tax statements due to the recent constitutional amendment election in Texas. The Fort Bend County Tax Office is working to have statements mailed by mid-December. Earlier this year, the FBCLID2 Board of Directors approved a major change to the District’s tax collection process by contracting with Fort Bend County to collect taxes. FBCLID2 taxpayers will receive a consolidated tax statement from the Fort Bend County Tax Assessor/Collector. Residents should not expect a separate FBCLID2 tax statement this year.
