The City of North Las Vegas has completed the Apex Elevated Water Tank, marking a milestone in the construction of the Apex Industrial Complex. The water tank, with a capacity of 1.25 million gallons, was built at a cost of $13.5 million to support the water supply needs of local businesses and industries, according to the City of North Las Vegas.
During a recent statement, Utilities Director Joemel Llamado emphasized the importance of the water tank, asserting, "The raising of this water tank marks a pivotal moment in securing reliable water access for our Apex business community." He further added, "This infrastructure will support both current operations and future growth in this growing area." The project undertaken by Harber Company, Inc., addresses current requirements and serves as an interim solution until the Garnet Valley/Apex Water and Wastewater System becomes operational in 2028, as stated by the City of North Las Vegas.
The elevated water tank is a temporary measure preceding the Garnet Valley project, which began in 2024 through an agreement between North Las Vegas and the Southern Nevada Water Authority. The project focuses on reclaiming indoor water use and recycling it back into Lake Mead. Plans for the complete development of Apex project 73,000 jobs and $7 billion in investments over the next two decades, with increased tax revenue allocated for public services, including safety, parks, roads, and libraries in North Las Vegas, as reported by the City of North Las Vegas.
