Maynardville residents, kick up your boots and enjoy a nice, ice cold glass of tap water as it is the Best Tasting in the state. At the monthly Maynardville City Council meeting on May 11, 2021, Tennessee Association of Utility Districts (TAUD) representatives, Michael Keaton and Kevin Byrd, attended to proudly present the award of Best Tasting Water in Tennessee to the Union County’s very own Maynardville Utility Department (MUD).
