Resources

The City assists companies seeking a location in Fairfield, as well as existing businesses looking to expand.  Fairfield has a successful track record creating business parks, helping companies secure a site that meets its needs, assisting with city development approvals, and providing follow up business retention calls.

Incentives

The City of Fairfield provides financial incentives to businesses moving to Fairfield or expanding an existing Fairfield business on a case-by-case basis. The level and scope of financial assistance is determined by the number and quality of jobs and capital investment that a new or expanding company may bring to Fairfield, as well as other factors. 

Financing

The City of Fairfield believes that all types of financial assistance should be determined on a case-by-case basis. The level and scope of financial assistance is determined by the number and quality of jobs, and capital investment that a new or expanding company may bring to Fairfield as well as other factors.

Assistance can include, but is not limited to, land write downs, direct loans, and other types of assistance and/or the financing or deferral of development impact fees. The City can also serve as a conduit for either tax-exempt or taxable industrial bond financing, through California Communities or the Fairfield Industrial Development Authority.  The City has a well-established track record in this area.  The City also operates a direct loan program which provides "gap" financing. The City of Fairfield's Guide to Business Financing outlines the various types of financing available to persons or businesses in Fairfield through various agencies, lending institutions, and other sources, including the City of Fairfield. Staff is very experienced in both private and public funding options.
