Fairlee Clerk's Office

The Fairlee Clerk's Office is a local government office located at 75 Town Common Road in Fairlee, Vermont, United States. The Town of Fairlee, founded in 1761, encompasses the Village of Ely and Fairlee, situated between the Connecticut River and the Green Mountains. The town was chartered by Governor Benning Wentworth in 1761 and first settled in 1766.

The Town logo features the "Aunt Sally" steamboat, built by local inventor Samuel Morey, who successfully operated it on Lake Morey and the Connecticut River in 1793. Fairlee is home to two scenic lakes, Lake Morey and Lake Fairlee, with rich histories. With a year-round population of 988, the town transforms into a bustling resort community in the summer, attracting summer residents and campers for over a century.

In the fall, Fairlee becomes a quieter New England village after the foliage season. Winter activities such as skating on the longest skating trail in the US and pond hockey tournaments keep the town lively until spring. The Fairlee Clerk's Office serves as a hub for town residents and visitors, providing essential government services and information.
