The utility, police, and liquor store the city owns
Fairmont's utility, police department, and liquor store each keep their own shore here, joined the way Amber joins the chain: connected, and distinct.
Public Utilities
Electric, water, and wastewater from your own city since 1902. Rates, billing, and the journey from Budd Lake to your bill.
Police Department
Fair, professional, dedicated. Officers you can know by name, programs from Adopt-A-Cop to Citizens On Patrol.
Fairmont Liquor
The city-owned store on the chain. Hours, specials, and events, with profits that stay in Fairmont.
Each shore keeps its own contacts, hours, and records. The search box above reads all three.
Five lakes, four joined by channel
Four of Fairmont's five lakes connect by channel, so a boat can run Hall to George without leaving the water. The fifth, Amber, waits behind its dam. The Lakes Management Committee keeps watch over all of them, in public.
