You may notice small, blue stakes placed in the ground near water meters in and around Monteagle.

These stakes are vital markers for the Monteagle Public Utilities Department.

PURPOSE: They help our crews quickly and accurately locate water meters, especially during maintenance, repairs, or emergencies.

YOUR COOPERATION IS KEY: Disturbing, moving, or removing these blue stakes can cause delays in service, misidentification of meters, and create unnecessary complications for our utility work.

Please leave these blue stakes undisturbed. Your cooperation ensures the efficient operation of our water system and helps us serve you better.

Thank you for your understanding and assistance in maintaining our public utilities!

We are constantly looking for ways to improve the lives of our senior citizens. We support Bingo on the 3rd Thursday of each month.

Our next project is to maintain a senior care program. Our plan is to have someone who will personally call either daily or weekly, depending on what the resident requests. This is to learn if the senior is all right and if they need anything.

We plan on coordinating our programs with Sethra and South East TN Development. you can help by contacting Town Hall at 931-924-2265

If you or anyone you know wishes to enroll in this program, or if assistance is needed, please let us know.

We want to bring an important reminder to your attention regarding recent scam attempts. Please exercise extreme caution and remain vigilant against deceptive phone calls.

Key things to remember:

• Be wary of unsolicited calls: If you receive phone calls from individuals claiming to be from a company, government agency, or even a charity, and they immediately ask for money, bank details, or the purchase of gift cards, it is highly likely to be a scam.
• Gift Cards are a Red Flag: Legitimate organizations will never ask you to pay for services, taxes, or fines using gift cards. This is a common tactic used by scammers because gift cards are untraceable once the codes are shared.
• Immediate Action: If you encounter such a call, hang up immediately. Do not engage in conversation, do not provide any personal information, and do not follow any instructions they give.
• Verify Independently: If you are concerned that the call might have been legitimate, do not call the number they provided. Instead, independently look up the official contact information for the company or organization they claimed to represent (e.g., from their official website or a trusted directory) and call them directly to verify.

Your security is paramount. By staying informed and cautious, we can protect ourselves and our information from these fraudulent activities.

Thank you for your attention to this important matter.
