The mayor of Fairfax is set to resign, citing health reasons.
The Fairfax city council agenda posted to the city’s web site indicates Mayor Bernie Frieden has submitted his resignation, effective this coming Tuesday. Frieden says in a letter to the council that medical issues are affecting his physical and mental health.
In his letter, Frieden thanks the people of Fairfax, as well as city staff.
Frieden’s current term is set to expire at the end of this year. He won his last election in 2021 by four votes…a win later confirmed by a recount.
Tuesday’s Fairfax city council meeting is set for 6pm at Fairfax City Hall.
