Neighborhood Guide: Spring Valley Village TX
One of the two Memorial Villages located north of the interstate, Spring Valley is adjacent to Hilshire and Spring Branch to the east and north. Hedwig and Hunters Creek are just across the Katy Freeway, south of the neighborhood.
Like the other Memorial Villages, the affluent 1.6-square mile neighborhood started out as a collection of farms, sawmills, and a few homes.
By the 1950s, Spring Valley Village had grown to a tight-knit community – and Houston had its eye on annexing unincorporated areas beyond its borders. Concerned about zoning and taxation, residents filed for a petition for incorporation.
Today, the City of Spring Valley Village has a mayor-city council type of government and operates its own police department. It shares a fire department and water authority with the other five Villages.
After its incorporation in 1955, the newly minted independent municipality enacted an ordinance that regulates the issuance of building permits, as well as one that governs subdivisions.
Under the said zoning ordinance, Spring Valley Village limited homes to a one-story floor plan and a 10,000-square foot minimum lot area. Later on in the 1980s, the zoning ordinance was amended to allow the construction of two-story homes.
The effects of the old ordinance is still quite apparent in Spring Valley – ranch-style homes and bungalows are a common sight, with a few new construction custom-built homes.
Spring Valley Village has a 77055 Harris County zip code.
