HISTORY: Fair Oaks incorporation was approved in a heavy voter turnout in 1987 and then in January, 1988 the residents of Fair Oaks Ranch South voted to consolidate with Fair Oaks Ranch North, thus creating the city of Fair Oaks Ranch, Texas. Boots Gaubatz became the first mayor of Fair Oaks Ranch. Serving on the first city council were Bob Caldwell, Jim Buhaug, Wanda Price, Jim Deats and Gary Younglove. The new town, consisting of subdivisions developed on the old Ralph Fair Ranch, grew rapidly. By 1995 the population was 3125, a growth of 12% a year since 1988. In 1995 the city was given its own zip code number by the postal department. Effective in July, 1995 the zip code became 78015. Prior to this time, Fair Oaks was included in the Boerne "78006" number. On March 4, 1996 Robert Andrews assumed office as chief administrator of all city operations except the police department.
