WATER LINE UPDATE

Pipe repair is done and both lanes of traffic are back open. Thank you Marshall Public Works. Another successful mission and a job well done!

*9-4-2026. DOWNTOWN WATER LEAK*
Travelers be advised, Town of Marshall Public Works crew will be diligently working on a few water line leaks directly in front of the Tag Office in downtown. Traffic will be narrowed down to one lane for a large portion of the day while they rip up the road and work to get it repaired.

Main Street businesses, make preparations to have potential water cutoff and issues throughout the day and we will have updates as soon as available. Travelers, please plan your routes accordingly to help decrease unnecessary traffic issues and congestion. Everyone stay safe and thank the public works department for the great job they all do!!

*UPDATE*

BTW, SHOUTOUT to Frontier for getting this cleaned up!

Skyway Drive travelers take caution! If you are walking or driving, be mindful at the area of Skyway Drive and Skyway Summit. This big boy has decided to bridge itself over the road and is only being held up by a power line. For now, the road will remain OPEN and proper authorities have been notified so resolution efforts are in progress. Stay safe and let us know how we can help. Call/text: 828.380.2921

This week we honor and remember police Chief, Mike Boone. The evening of August 2nd, 2024 hit our community and many others and took a valued member away from all society. The memories will live on (and the deer racks in stories will probably get bigger each time) but we continue to celebrate Chief Boone and the positive and professional impact he left with with all of us. We love and miss you chief, until next time.

Take care of each other and let us know how we can help. Call/text 828.380.2921

Here we are again with another very much deserved and hard earned Mothers Day shoutout. Thanks to all the moms who have allowed us all to be here. Thank you for the courage you maintain during the hard times. Thank you for the tireless efforts that helped shape each of us in our first years here. You all truly deserve more recognition than once every 365 days but we wanted to share at least one moment with as many moms as we can. Have the best day today, and when each tomorrow comes, don’t forget that we’re thankful for you then too! Have a great Mother’s Day and know that you are loved. Let us know how we can help!

UPDATE: It may be raining but we’re still here with our Madison County Mental Health and Substance Awareness partners at Marshall Ingles on the bypass for our Drug Take Back event. We’re here still for another hour so bring your unused, expired and otherwise unwanted prescriptions for proper and safe disposal.

Welcome back Madison students and can someone please send us the petition to bring back a little rain to sign!?

It’s however many months post Helene now and we are still in the market for donations and assistance. Each passing week our department grows a little more but we had a huge boost to kick off our spring all thanks to the Town of Woodfin Police Department. Chief Boykin and crew generously donated us with multiple sets of stop sticks, vehicle lighting equipment, in-car computer stands and mobile printers for our patrol officers.

Some of these may seem like small hand-me-down items but to us, it’s a huge deal and allows our officers to more efficiently handle roadside business and assistance while maintaining a strong sense of officer safety like keeping eyes on stopped vehicles and subjects. Every little thing counts from the ink in our pen to making sure everyone goes home at the end of the day.

Town of Woodfin PD et al, we are proud to be so close to you and have enjoyed establishing and growing our professional relationship. We may be small, but we are here to help. Thank you for providing us with more of the valuable and vital equipment we need to support and provide our services to our community and those we serve. In other words, “we sure do preciate yuns”!

Hello again, family and friends,

We truly hope that everyone enjoyed a beautiful Easter holiday weekend. For some, Spring break is coming to an end, while for others, they are about to start. Maybe even more others already had their fun in the sun, but either way, we're glad you're here!

Each month claims attention and awareness for one or more causes. We aim to support each of them the best we can. As our partnership with the Health Department and active seat with the Madison Mental Health and Substance Awareness Coalition remain strong, we would like to join them in bringing focus not only to reducing but also eliminating Child Abuse. Not to make light of the cause or message, but a key takeaway goes back to "if you see something, say something". There is nothing wrong with bringing questionable occurrences or visuals to the attention of appropriate persons and officials. The Sheriff's office has provided each of our schools with a School Resource Officer (SRO) to speak to, and every other law enforcement officer within the county should have no issue taking calls and listening to concerns of a related nature.

Please, seek assistance at the Social Services office on the bypass (5707 US 25/70 HWY) next to Family Dollar, call your local authority, or, if emergent, you can always call 9-1-1. We are all here to help, so let us know how we can. Stay vigilant, stay aware, and help our community become a model for those around us to protect our youth and provide the various services they may need.

Stay safe and let us know how we can help. Call/text 828.380.2921

Its Friday at last!

Very important for locals and all who visit and frequent our beloved Blannahassett Island, (the second N has been heavily debated).

As the town of Marshall is going through recovery and improvement phases post-Helene, this is an opportunity to voice opinions, share ideas, and explore potential opportunities for a landmark known for generations. We hope to see you all there!
