UTILITY HISTORY

City of Roanoke: Eagle Mountain Lake water via Fort Worth

Roanoke's 2025 water quality report says its drinking water is sourced from Eagle Mountain Lake and purchased from the City of Fort Worth. Fort Worth buys its raw water from the Tarrant Regional Water District, which owns four of Fort Worth's supply lakes. That district began in 1924 as Tarrant County Water Control and Improvement District No. 1 after a devastating 1922 flood. It received a permit for Eagle Mountain Lake in 1925 and completed the lake in 1932. Fort Worth also uses Lake Worth, Lake Benbrook and other reservoirs.
