In March 1898, W.T. Dees petitioned the Board of County Commissioners for telephone wire lines on public roads to the Luraville Ferry. The petition was granted. This brought the first telephones to Mayo. A light plant and water works were established in Mayo in 1907 by the Dees family.

Along about this same time, Mr. Dees gave land to the Town of Mayo for a park. Now known as Mayo Town Park, it was known at that time as Dees Park, and for a time it was a great place, particularly with the beautiful live oaks, many of which are still standing. This park was the gathering place for many town and country social occasions.
