Safe & Sustainable Fairfield Development is a grassroots coalition of concerned residents dedicated to preserving the character, safety, and livability of our town. Our mission is to advocate for responsible growth, protect our zoning laws, and ensure that all developments align with Fairfield’s long-term interests—not just those of developers.

We work to:
✅ Educate the community on development proposals that threaten our town’s infrastructure and character.
✅ Engage with town officials and zoning boards to demand responsible planning.
✅ Mobilize residents to take action through petitions, public hearings, and awareness campaigns.

Fairfield is a town worth fighting for. Join us in protecting its future.

Why This Development is Wrong for Fairfield

This project does not comply with current zoning regulations designed to protect Fairfield’s neighborhoods. If approved, it will create significant safety, traffic, and environmental risks, including:

🚗 Insufficient Parking & Overflow Into Residential Streets

The development lacks the required number of parking spaces, forcing residents and visitors to park on our already overcrowded, narrow streets—many of which lack sidewalks for safe pedestrian access.

⚠ Increased Traffic & Safety Hazards

150+ additional cars per day will worsen congestion on Post Road and encourage dangerous cut-through traffic in residential areas.
Left turns onto Post Road from Fairfield Place and Lindbergh Street will become even more difficult and hazardous.

🌧️ Stormwater & Environmental Risks

The site is not designed to properly manage stormwater runoff, increasing the risk of flooding, erosion, infrastructure damage, and pollution in local waterways, including Southport Harbor.

🏗️ A Dangerous Precedent for Future Overdevelopment

If zoning laws are changed for this project, it could open the floodgates for other oversized developments across Fairfield, further eroding the character and safety of our town.
