About NFCA
The North Fayette Community Association (NFCA) was created by area homeowners in August 2001 as a community-based advocacy group that identified common issues, interests, and concerns affecting many North Fayette residents. The NFCA was chartered in October 2001 as a non-profit, non-partisan Cooperation and later received its Federal Non-Profit status under IRS Code 501(c)(4).
​
Former President, Mr. Virgil Fludd, was instrumental in starting the organization. The boundaries of North Fayette encompasses a large area North of Georgia HWY 54 to HWY 138, East of HWY 74, and West of HWY 85. The East/West boundaries connect with Clayton County to the East and Tyrone to the West.
​
A large percentage of Fayette County tax base is derived from unincorporated areas. The 2000 census data reflect a population of 31,256 in northern Fayette. Today, the population has more than tripled. Some core communities in northern Fayette are Country Lake, Briarfield, Greer Woods, Westbridge I and II, Northridge, Princeton Chase, Providence, Hampstead Heath, Dix-Lee-On, Newton Plantation, and homes along HWYs 279 and 314.
​
Many area subdivisions have active homeowners' association that focus on matters specific to their immediate neighborhood. NFCA was created to advocate on behalf of the entire North Fayette community.
An NFCA True Story
By Alice Matthews Jones & Johnnie E. Jones, Jr.
The North Fayette Community Association was started because many North Fayette residents, inclusively of all race, felt deprived of true representation at the County level with lack of support, services, resources and amenities. Working together tirelessly, attending numerous meetings with Fayette County Parks & Recreation, Fayette Planning Commission and the Fayette County Commissioners, we were able to progressively accomplished the construction of the Kenwood Park.
Standing Strong together and unified, the NFCA prevented construction of a service station proposed at the corner of Hwy 279 & Hwy 314 along with other obstructive challenges that would've caused disaster to our community.
​
As taxpayers of Fayette County, we were being charged taxes for Clayton and Fulton Counties, specifically for purchasing large ticket items.
In 2009 Johnnie E. Jones, Jr., then NFCA President, wrote several letters to the U.S. Postal Service to get our zip code changed from Fulton and Clayton County routes to Fayetteville Postal System. Fayette County Government supported this zip code change which would increase tax flow into Fayette County.
Today, as we continue to stand strong together, it is our mission to remain unified in efforts to protect the goals and objectives of NFCA primarily to assure safe communities, schools, crime prevention, quality of life and protect property values.
