(901) 460-0232Which County Holds Your Eads Address?
Fayette County or Shelby County holds your Eads address, and the mailing name does not tell you which one. The county appears on your property tax bill. Your restoration company records that county on its written estimate, so read it off the bill when you call.
Who Supplies Utilities at an Eads Property With No Town Government?
MLGW supplies electricity and gas across Shelby County, so utilities on the Shelby side of Eads come from MLGW. Fayette County's directory lists Chickasaw Electric and splits gas at Highway 64, and your bill confirms water on that side. Ask your restoration company which utility details it wants.
How the County Line Picks an Eads Permit Office
The county line picks an Eads permit office, because no town government issues one. On the Shelby County side, MLGW lists (901) 222-8302 and says permits depend on location. On the Fayette County side, the office is Fayette County Planning and Development at 16265 Hwy 64, 901-465-5250.
A 38028 mailing ZIP does not pick the office, since it also takes in parts of Arlington and Oakland. Raise water damaged drywall repair with your county office, which confirms what needs a permit.
Cordova sits in Shelby County alone, with part of it inside Memphis, so water damage cleanup in Cordova has no county split. Arlington has a Town Hall and a Town sewer, so water damage cleanup in Arlington starts with a local office.
