Fairfield Crest Civic Association

The last several years, participation in a community yard sale has been minimal. Often we only have 2 or 3 families that participate. However, if you are interested in participating in a spring yard sale, please indicate so by filling out the poll on this page.

We’ve made great progress in our landscaping project. A small grant from the New Castle County Council (sponsored by Councilwoman Stephanie McClellan) will provide support to replace the broken sign at the south neighborhood entrance. Additionally, support from DelDOT (sponsored by Representative Terry Schooly and Senator Lianne Sorenson) will fund a new brick structure at the north end of the neighborhood. This will be a lighted sign that is similar in design to the Fairfield Sign across the street. The Dept of Agriculture has also pledged to match our funds for landscaping and will provide an on-site visit with a forester for landscaping advisement. We anticipate completion of the project by spring. Please direct your comments to Laurie Hanich (Laurie@FairfieldCrest.com)

We wish Ezra Temko well in his bid for a Newark city council position. Ezra has been extremely active in our civic association. He has designed and manages our web page and was instrumental in finding funding to support our landscaping project. Issues that are foremost in Ezra’s campaign include environmental sustainability, economic progress, and responsive representation. He will be hosting a neighborhood coffee to discuss Newark issues at his home, 42 Lynn Dr., on Sat., Mar 22 at 10:30am. Please RSVP FairfieldCrest@EzraTemko.com or call 981-3007 if you plan to attend. Additionally, Ezra will host a community forum at Home Grown Cafe, 126 E Main St, on Sunday, Mar. 30, (4:00pm). You can learn more about Ezra at www.ezratemko.com. Don’t forget to vote on April 8^th.
