Fairfield's Future Now Up To Law
Fairfield Township faces two rival incorporation plans to block annexation by Hamilton. One proposal seeks to incorporate the entire township, filed with the township trustees, while another would create a city or village for Belmont and Homewood additions and GM Fisher Body property, filed with the township clerk. The attorney general must decide which filing came first, after which voters will choose to approve the appealed plan at a November or special election. If approved, a new municipal government would collect taxes from the existing township. Fisher Body is Butler County’s second largest taxpayer.
