Welcome to our website! Find out more about us. 

FSA 2021 focus: 
  • Preserving past gains in the State Legislature for tax relief on Social Security and pensions/annuities and  healthcare programs for seniors. 
  • Pursuing senior-friendly housing options that may also work for millennials and other segments of our Fairfield population.   
  • This includes our proposed regulations for accessory dwelling units (ADUs) now under review by Planning & Zoning. We’ll post more about ADUs shortly.
  • We are also working toward other “middle density” housing concepts needed for residents who want to stay in town. 
  • Using our 2021 Zoom meetings aimed to engage residents of key issues important to seniors, future senior and all who advocate for them.  These will resume in February. Watch this space for the schedule. 
  • If you’re interested in participating, click HERE, enter your contact information and indicate that you're “interested in FSA Zoom meetings” in the Comments area.
  • Even if you don’t have a web camera (most computers/phones now have these), you can still join these sessions by phone.

​Our Mission

Make Fairfield an attractive town for older adults: an affordable, desirable, vibrant, ​engaged community. This is vital to community and everyone’s finances.​

Our Core Values

Seniors are important to our town: to its economy, diversity, sense of community.
  • FSA is non-partisan and represents all Fairfielders. 
  • We are inclusive: No age restrictions, all points of view considered.​​
  • Keeping our seniors is critical for everyone:
  • Seniors generate a sizable portion of our property tax revenues;
  • Seniors helped build our Town, offer valuable experiences, and are sources of charitable giving/volunteer activities;
  • But economic pressures make it impractical for many to stay in Fairfield. Whenever we lose a senior, the expected annual cost to the Town approaches $10,000;
  • Economic reality: Town spending above inflation levels jeopardizes retention of our seniors, hurting families and increasing everyone's taxes. ​​​
Everyone: regardless of your situation or plans, please take our senior housing/living survey (see link above). 

FSA is an advocate for Bigelow (Senior) Center programs and activities
