In 1967 Fairfield Communities Inc. started a resort community from a vision by 3 men: George Jacobus, Neil Simonson and C. Randolph Warner.
On April 15, 1970 the Fairfield Bay Community Club was formed by Fairfield Communities Inc. and they became the governing body until July 29, 1993 when the City of Fairfield Bay was formed to help provide additional funds through state turnback and city sales tax.
On November 6, 1993 the first officials of Fairfield Bay were elected and on November 12, 1993 they were sworn into office.
The community is currently operated under two forms of management. The City of Fairfield Bay provides: Police, Fire, 911 Call Center, Building and Code Enforcement, Animal Control and operates the Senior Center and the Conference Center.
The Fairfield Bay Community Club provides public works, wastewater and the wonderful amenities that are in our community.
