A metropolitan district is a local governmental entity that finances and provides public services, like parks, streets and stormwater.  It is funded through property taxes paid by residents and is operated by a local board of directors. 

The Fountain Mutual Metropolitan District (FMMD) was created to serve two main functions:  stormwater management and parks and recreational purposes.  FMMD is a 10 mill district which cannot incur debt.  Residents interested in serving on the board of the district are invited to reach out to the district manager, and to attend any board meeting.
