Gardnerville Ranchos Water System

The Gardnerville Ranchos General Improvement District awarded Q&D Construction the first phase of a water pipeline replacement project in the southern portion of the District in the Ranchos. The first phase consists of approximately 17,300 lineal feet of new water main installation with new fire hydrants and new water services to your residential meter. The planned start date for the project is May 2022, with completion expected by the end of the year.
During construction, traffic impacts will be kept to a minimum. Residents should expect local detours, lane shifts, and periodic lane closures. Access to your property will be maintained at all times during construction.
