The Town of Farragut"The Town of Farragut, the Farragut Chamber of Commerce and the townspeople are partners in progress who work together to ensure the future of this community."In the fall of 1979, a group known as the Farragut Community Group gathered to explore the concept of incorporating. Many community residents wished to have more control over their destiny. In January of 1980, residents decided to incorporate by an overwhelming margin. The Town of Farragut was incorporated on January 16, 1980, with the first board of Mayor and Alderman elected on April 1, 1980. Controls on zoning, building codes and signage plus major improvements to roads and a sincere commitment to developing parks, green space and leisure opportunities make this community a great place to live and work The Farragut Chamber's mission is to further the economic strengths of the community. Recruiting new businesses and jobs, encouraging good government, promoting community pride and involvement, and supporting better education are our basic goals. |
