Local and state officials gathered with the community earlier this week to celebrate the opening of a new Jack’s Family Restaurant location in Fairview.

It may seem like just a new franchise, but a development like this can be instrumental in the growth of Fairview. The city, which incorporated in 1968, has a population of just around 540.

“Bringing Jack’s to Fairview took a true team effort. We are grateful for every partner who came alongside us, and we are proud to welcome Jack’s as the newest part of Fairview’s bright future.”

The grant that made it happen

The development was made possible in part due to a $30,000 grant from Alabama Mountains Rivers Valleys (AMRV) Resource Conservation & Development (RC&D), which was used to expand the sewer system capacity, The Cullman Tribune reported Monday, Dec. 8.

Without the capacity increase, new developments wouldn’t have been sustainable in the city.

“Our mission at AMRV RC&D is to invest in projects that strengthen local communities, and we were proud to provide the $30,000 grant that helped make this infrastructure upgrade possible.

“Seeing Fairview welcome a new business like Jack’s shows exactly how these resources can create a long-lasting impact.”
