Why Fairfield City?
Economic development is fundamental to improving the quality of life for our residents. As one of Sydney and NSW’s most disadvantaged Local Government areas, our focus is on building a stronger, more resilient local economy to provide greater opportunities for our diverse community.
Fairfield is well placed to capitalise on significant opportunities presented by upcoming projects in Western Sydney including the Western Sydney International Airport and surrounding Aerotropolis.
Effectively capitalising on these opportunities, and others, in a complex economic environment whilst retaining and supporting our existing business and resident community will be instrumental in Fairfield’s future economic success.
Our Economic Development Strategy is focused on what the community has told us: that the City’s future should be characterised by community wellbeing, improving infrastructure and places and a strong & resilient local economy.
