Fairfield hires former finance director as new city manager

FAIRFIELD – Six months after leaving Fairfield, Scott Timmer is returning as its city manager.

The former finance director and assistant city manager is the candidate many on Fairfield City Council wanted to hire last year but the governing board instead opted to wait until the new council came on board.

“Scott brings a strong financial background, a wealth of knowledge of the operations of the city and a vision for the future of the city,’’ said Councilwoman Leslie Besl, who took over the city manager search earlier this month.

Timmer said he is happy to be returning to the city, where he will fill a career goal: becoming a city manager.

“I look forward to reconnecting with the Fairfield leadership team. I plan to meet with (them) upon arrival and collaborate to define our strategic priorities for 2022,’’ Timmer said.
