Cypress concrete, where the County handles the permits
Cypress is a city in everything but government. It's unincorporated Harris County, so the County, not a city hall, is who you deal with for work in the right-of-way.
Cypress stretches along US 290 northwest of the Beltway, from older neighborhoods off Huffmeister and Telge out to the big master-planned communities of Towne Lake, Bridgeland and Fairfield and the new sections along the Grand Parkway. There's no City of Cypress. Most of it is unincorporated Harris County, with municipal utility districts handling water and drainage inside the subdivisions.
That has a practical effect on driveway work. On many streets outside the master-planned sections, homes still sit along open drainage ditches, and the driveway crosses the ditch on a culvert pipe. Harris County's Engineering Department permits residential driveways and culverts in the county right-of-way, including new culverts, extensions, widening and repair, with an application and site plan. We file it, size the pipe to what the County requires, and set the approach so the ditch keeps flowing.
Inside the newer communities, the work looks more like Katy's: patios for covers and outdoor kitchens, driveway widening with HOA approval, pool decks and stamped finishes.

Cypress questions
Who permits a driveway approach in Cypress?
For most addresses, Harris County's Engineering Department, because Cypress is unincorporated. The County permits driveways and culverts in its right-of-way. We confirm and file it.
What size culvert do I need?
The County sets it for your location. We don't guess the pipe size; it comes from the permit.
Does my MUD or HOA need to approve concrete work?
HOAs often review visible exterior work. Utility districts generally care when work affects drainage or their easements.
