Incorporation

Proposed City of Fairwood Map

 

 

 
 

Fairwood Community News has been the resource for comprehensive information related to the proposed City of Fairwood Incorporation.

To assist you in reviewing this long process and the final vote of the people, Archives tracking the Incorporation work can be found by CLICKING HERE. Although the issue of incorporation has been addressed, the issue of whether the Fairwood area should annex into the City of Renton must now be addressed.

Recently announced, The City of Renton Council voted to place the Fairwood Annexation issue on the November 2, 2010 ballot, just one year after the Incorporation issue was voted on and failed.

We will continue to provide our readers with updated information regarding this important issue in 2010. This promises to be another exciting year!
