Fairfax, CA

Fairfax, CA earned the Charging Smart Gold designation in 2025.

To achieve Charging Smart Gold designation, Fairfax has incorporated EVs and EV charging infrastructure into the community’s strategic plan. Additionally, Fairfax has streamlined the approval process for EV infrastructure, installed a public charger, and purchased EVs for municipal fleet use. These and other actions taken will make it faster, easier, and more affordable for local residents, businesses, and nonprofit organizations to install EV infrastructure and adopt EVs.

The Town has been hard at work on various EV charging projects. From outreach and education at this past Spring’s EV and E-bike Fair, to working with MTC on a plan to transition our fleet to Zero Emission Vehicles, this designation captures how the Town is supporting sustainable transportation.
