Fair Haven Vermont The Slate Center of the Nation Welcome to Fair Haven Under the southwestern “hook” of Vermont, where the Taconic Mountains give way to the historic Champlain Valley, lies the picturesque town of Fair Haven…the Slate Center of the Nation…and Vermont’s Western Gateway…. Chartered and first settled in 1779, Fair Haven first prospered as a mill town, with numerous works developed on the falls of the Castleton River by Col. Matthew Lyon. In the mid-1800’s, the first slate quarries were opened, marking the beginning of an industry that has continued to thrive until the present day. Twenty-first century Fair Haven is a charming village, featuring a large central green just north of the downtown business district, surrounded by some of the finest examples of Victorian architecture in the state. The green is home to many events throughout the year, including Spring Fling, a summer concert series, and annual AppleFest. The business district features many quaint shops and eateries, within walking distance of most of the community. The townspeople are friendly…the schools and public services are first rate…and the opportunities here are limited only by one’s creativity and imagination. On your next visit to Vermont, stop by Fair Haven…and spend the day…or a lifetime… Board of Civil Authority Meeting – November 2, 2021 Zoning Board of Adjustment Conditional Use Permit – Dunkin Donuts Site Visit and Plan Review – Dunkin Donuts Variances Hearing – Dunkin Donuts Zoning Board of Adjustment Public Hearing 2020 Consumer Confidence Report Park ordinance adoption 2021 Voters Guide 2019 CCR Hearing – Zoning Board of Adjustment Listening Tour Flyer 11/18/2020:The Department of Public Service has a grant program to help pay past due municipal and non-regulated water and wastewater/sewer bills.
