George T. Snyder, Jr. was the mayor of the City of Fairfax from 1983 to 1990.

Snyder was appointed to the post in November, 1983 to serve out the term of John Russell, who had been elected to the state Senate earlier that month. He was re-elected to the position in 1984, defeating former mayor Fred W. Silverthorne.

Snyder declined to seek a fourth full term as mayor, announcing his decision in November, 1989.

While attending a convention in Orlando, Florida, Snyder died of a heart attack in his hotel room on November 14, 1995.
