About Us
The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) requires all municipal water providers to deliver annual water quality reports to their customers. This report covers January 1 through December 31, 2017, and contains vital information about your tap water supply.
For public participation opportunities, City of Buda welcomes residents to attend City Council meetings held on the 1st and 3rd Tuesdays monthly at the Council Chambers in Buda City Hall (405 East Loop Street, Building 100). For report inquiries, contact Blake Neffendorf, Water Resource Coordinator at 512-523-1079.
Understanding Your Water Sources
Buda's water comes from both groundwater and surface water. The Edwards Aquifer provides approximately 60% of our supply, which is treated at individual well sites. The remaining 40% originates from Canyon Lake via the Guadalupe River, treated at the San Marcos Surface Water Treatment Plant (operated by GBRA - call 512-353-3888 for treatment details).
Potential Contaminants
All water sources (tap and bottled) may contain small amounts of various contaminants as water travels over land or underground. These can include:
- Microbial contaminants (viruses, bacteria) from sewage systems, agricultural operations, and wildlife
- Inorganic contaminants (salts, metals) from natural sources, urban runoff, or industrial processes
- Pesticides and herbicides from agriculture and residential usage
- Organic chemical contaminants from industrial processes, petroleum production, gas stations, and septic systems
- Radioactive contaminants that occur naturally or result from oil/gas production
Water Quality and Special Health Considerations
EPA regulations limit contaminant levels to ensure safe drinking water. Some individuals may be more vulnerable to certain contaminants, including infants, elderly persons, those undergoing chemotherapy or organ transplants, steroid treatment patients, and people with HIV/AIDS or immune disorders. These individuals should seek specific advice from healthcare providers.
Lead Information
Elevated lead levels can cause serious health issues, particularly for pregnant women and young children. Lead typically comes from service lines and household plumbing materials. While the City provides quality water, we cannot control plumbing component materials. If water sits unused for several hours, minimize lead exposure by flushing your tap for 30 seconds to 2 minutes before using water for drinking or cooking.

City of Buda Municipal Water Company and EPACity of Buda Municipal Water Historical Background
Buda's origins trace back to land owned by Mrs. Cornelia A. Trimble in the 1880s. When the International and Great Northern Railroad constructed tracks from Austin to San Antonio, Mrs. Trimble recognized the opportunity and began planning to develop her property as a town site.
Originally established as Du Pre, Texas on April 1, 1881, the town quickly attracted businesses and residents due to its strategic railroad stop. The community rapidly grew as people from surrounding areas, particularly Mountain City, relocated to this new rail hub.
In 1887, after discovering another Texas town already used the name Du Pre, postal authorities requested a name change. The town became Buda, possibly derived from the Spanish word "viuda" (widow), referencing the widows who cooked at the popular Carrington Hotel, a well-known rest stop for railway travelers.
Early Buda thrived by serving surrounding farms and ranches, supporting various businesses including mills, hotels, banks, a lumberyard, two newspapers, a cheese factory, a movie theater, and a skating rink. The local Chamber of Commerce formed in 1928, but the Great Depression soon impacted the community severely.
The town's population, estimated at 600 in 1929, dropped to 300 by 1933. Though incorporated in 1948, Buda didn't recover its pre-Depression population levels until the 1980s when Austin's growth began extending to surrounding communities. Today, Buda stands as the fastest-growing city in the Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization region, with over 8,600 residents and continuing to expand rapidly with thriving retail and service sectors.
