Threatened Farmland

Two hot issues in Fairfield right now are threatening the prime agricultural land in Suisun Valley. The North Connector Project, designed to bypass I-80, will put a road through prime agricultural lands in Suisun Valley. The Initial Study/Proposed Negative Declaration was released for the North Connector in December 2006. Mitigation for lost farmland was marginal.

Additionally, a developer is proposing to donate 50 acres of land for a high school in Suisun Valley if the city allows the developer to build 4,000 new houses outside the city’s Urban Growth Boundary.
