# Fernley Considers $102,500 Water Plan

Fernley City Council is scheduled to consider a draft, not-to-exceed **$102,500** agreement with Shaw Engineering on October 7, 2026, to update the city’s Water Master Plan. The proposed work would assess water demand and supply, update hydraulic modeling, and prioritize capital projects; it is not an approved or executed contract. The scope excludes detailed rate, connection-fee, and project-financing studies.

- The proposed agreement, ES2026.005, could create follow-on planning and water-infrastructure needs as Fernley prioritizes capital projects; those potential procurements are not yet confirmed.
- Shaw Engineering is the proposed contractor. Firms pursuing related work should distinguish the pending planning agreement from any future capital-project solicitations.
- The scope does not include rate, connection-fee, or financing studies, so those services would require separate procurement if the city chooses to pursue them.
