City of Fairhope

Fairhope is located in the second fastest growing area in Alabama. Located on the Eastern Shore of Mobile Bay in coastal Alabama, it is a highly desirable location for retirees and young alike. To preserve the character of their city, the Fairhope Planning Department has developed a master plan that encourages the walkable village concept, maintains open space for public access to water front areas, and is currently conducting a natural resource inventory to identify and prioritize natural resource protection areas. Fairhope has also led the way in developing a comprehensive erosion and sediment control ordinance for the 3 cities located along Mobile Bay’s Eastern Shore.
