Water restored in West Tennessee town after over a week without
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (WMC) – After nine days without water residents in Mason, Tennessee have water services back according to county and city leaders.
This absence of water began when temperatures went below freezing earlier this month, since then residents pleaded for help and a resolution.
The town of Mason is not a stranger to water issues, but this absence of water impacted hundreds of Mason residents and those outside of the town’s limits.
Action News Five spoke with Tipton County Mayor Jeff Huffman and Town of Mason Mayor Eddie Noeman who both confirmed water was restored Friday for the town of just over 1,300 people after over a week without water.
Noeman said there were some more issues when Saturday, but now everyone has water.
“We had a little problem in the area, we call it [Old] Gainesville Road, and we restored it back. So, all the city right now and outside the city has water and good pressure,” he said.
Now that water is back flowing residents are concerned this issue will happen again. Noeman says he is working on a plan to prevent that from happening.
“From Covington tried to tie up our system with their system just in case something happens. And also, I am trying to get in touch with Poplar Grove just in case something happens,” he said. “So, either way, we try to get a plan B to cover up, so we want to be sure this kind of stuff never happens again.”
To get the Mason Water Department back functioning, Huffman said Tipton County and Millington sent help to resolve Mason’s water issue quicker.
Noeman said it was the help of others who saved the town from being without water for additional days.
“Everybody got some direction and get some help and so everything right now with help from the county and cities around it,” Noeman said.
Right now, the town is under a boil water advisory for 48 to 72 hours.
Noeman said there was a lot of miscommunication between city leaders during the water crisis he said he is working to streamline communication during town-wide issues.
He also said he requested a full report from Alliance Water Resources to see what the root cause of the water issue was. He hopes to share that report with residents during a town hall meeting in the coming weeks.

The Recipient of Taylor Swift’s Bouquet Toss Has Strong Tennessee Football, Lady Vols Basketball Ties | Rocky Top Insider

This past weekend, music icon Taylor Swift and NFL star Travis Kelce tied the knot and were married in Madison Square Garden in New York City. Among the long list of antendees featured celebrities and athletes with ties to the two parties.
One of the athletes in attendance was Kelce’s teammate on the Kansas City Chiefs, Trey Smith. Attending alongside the former Tennessee football standout was his sister, Ashley Smith.
On top of being present for one of the most publicized weddings in recent history, Ashley Smith is leaving with a souvenir of sorts. She caught Swift’s bouquet toss, traditionally meaning she will be the next to get married.
“Celebrated an Enchanting Love S(T&T)ory,” Ashley Smith wrote on Instagram. “And somehow…I ended up catching Tay Tay’s bouquet. So here’s to believing it’s bringing a lifetime of love, luck, and laughter my way. Congratulations, Taylor & Travis! Cheers to forever T&T!”

Along with being near the Tennessee football program as the sister of one of the Vols’ best players, Ashley Smith played a role within the team. Initially, she worked in the Tennessee football office as Director of Football Administration & Special Events. She was then elevated to Director of Student-Athlete Career Development in 2018. She is now the Manager of Player Engagement in the NFL.
“Ashley has done a fine job for us, and I believe she’ll really thrive in this role,” then-Athletic Director Phillip Fulmer said at the time of her promotion at UT. “She was fantastic in her role with football, but now that she’s working with all sports, she’ll be able to make a positive impact on more of our student-athletes. She understands how important it is that they have resources and advocates to help them transition to the next phase of their career.”
Ashley Smith graduated from Tennessee in 2013. During her time as a student, she served as the head student manager under Pat Summitt’s Lady Vols basketball program. After graduation, she worked in the NCAA’s national office in Indianapolis and earned a master’s degree at Florida before returning to UT.
