How are the developers paying for Riceland? Or, is the City paying for it?

Developers are paying for Riceland’s construction directly. In the future, Riceland will be reimbursed for a portion of some of those development costs by the Municipal Utility District (MUD) that will only affect property owners within Riceland.
