History

Fairfax incorporated as a village in 1955 to head off annexation from neighboring Cincinnati but remained connected to Columbia Township after incorporating. On January 1, 2010, it withdrew from Columbia Township by forming a paper township, due in part to city residents’ low tax contribution compared to their influence on township elections.
