Hiring local services in Prosper, TX

Prosper, a town that incorporated in 1914, sits mostly in Collin County with part in Denton County. Under Ordinance 2025-47, contractor registration costs $100 each plus a $100 annual renewal, except where state law prohibits registration. State law bars registration fees for state-licensed electricians and, since September 1, 2021, for TDLR-licensed AC contractors, so those trades should ask the town what applies. The same ordinance sets residential single-trade mechanical, electrical or plumbing permits at $100.

Looking up a Prosper contractor

Registered contractors are listed in the town's Citizen Self-Service (CSS) portal, or you can call Building Inspections at 972-346-3502. The town ties the permit to the contractor's registration, so a hired contractor who asks you to pull it yourself is working against the town's rule.

Water and sewer. The town runs its own lines and buys treated water from the North Texas Municipal Water District. Wastewater goes to NTMWD and Upper Trinity Regional Water District plants. Public Works is 972-347-9969.

Watering days. Under the town's 2026 rules, from April 1 to October 31 you may water twice a week, and from November 1 to March 31 once a week, on the days in the town schedule. No watering from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. New sod can get a variance through waterconservation@prospertx.gov, and the town runs a free sprinkler evaluation program.

Electricity. Oncor lists Prosper among the cities it serves, so in its area you choose a retail electric provider at PowerToChoose.org. Some edge areas may be on the CoServ co-op, which is outside retail choice unless it opts in. Confirm by address.

Bulk trash and yard waste. The town's trash contractor collects both weekly on your regular trash and recycling day. In 2026 there is no Saturday bulk service on Thanksgiving week (November 28) or Christmas week.

Property tax and flood maps. The Collin County part of town is appraised by the Collin Central Appraisal District and the Denton County part through dentoncad.com. A protest is generally due by May 15 or 30 days after your notice arrives, whichever is later. Look up flood zones on FEMA's Flood Map Service Center.
