Fairfield mayor denied reimbursement by City Council following resignation

In a special meeting Tuesday night, the Fairfield City Council voted against reimbursing former mayor Catherine “Cat” Moy for attorney fees accrued during a probe into her status as a Fairfield resident. 

Moy resigned Tuesday morning, attributing her decision to the “emotional duress” she and her family have experienced during the investigation, which she claimed was political. Moy was appointed to the City Council in 2008 and was elected mayor in 2022. Her term was set to expire in November of this year.
