FAIRFIELD, IOWA -- The Fairfield Area Chamber of Commerce has released an updated official Fairfield and Jefferson County streets and roads map.  The new map, approximately six months in development, serves as the only area map sanctioned by the Chamber and will be distributed widely over the course of the next two to three years.

“We’re fortunate that through the support of nearly 50 Chamber-member advertisers that Fairfield now has a sparkling new community map for everyone who wants one,” said Brent Willett, Chamber executive director.  “We were able to do a major print run and these maps will be placed in the hands of literally thousands of visitors and residents alike over the next couple of years,” he added.

The map, which updates a map printed in 2005, features Fairfield landmarks new to the community since that time, including the Fairfield Arts & Convention Center, new Jefferson County Health Center and several city annexations.  The Fairfield map also features the Fairfield Loop Trail circling Fairfield as well as the US Highway 34 bypass on the city’s south side.  The Jefferson County map includes cutout street maps of the communities of Batavia, Libertyville, Lockridge and Packwood.  A community narrative and Places of Interest listing and new photography is also included on the map. 

The map is available free of charge at the Fairfield Chamber Area Chamber of Commerce, City Hall, the Arts & Convention Center and at many business locations around Fairfield.  The map is also available for the first time in an interactive online format hosted at the Chamber Web site, FairfieldIowa.com, on the ‘Relocation’ page as well as on the Chamber blog www.fairfieldiowa.com/blog.
