Council approves “Cocktails to go” ordinance
Council approves “Cocktails to go” ordinance
Fernley restaurants with liquor licenses can now offer “cocktails to go” under a new ordinance approved by the City Council on Oct. 1. The measure allows 22 local restaurants to provide sealed alcoholic beverages for takeout or home delivery without obtaining a new license. City Clerk Kim Swanson said the change, made possible by Assembly Bill 375, could create a new revenue stream for local establishments. Drinks must be sealed with a tamper-evident cap, and open containers in vehicles remain illegal. Delivery drivers must be licensed, verify recipients are at least 21, and log all deliveries for four years. A 50-cent surcharge per drink will support the state’s Ignition Interlock & DUI Reduction Program. 10/09/2025 08:26 PM

Sheriff’s Office focusing on traffic enforcement around schools
The Lyon County Sheriff’s Office is increasing patrols around Fernley school zones to address congestion and safety concerns. Deputies will focus on Cottonwood Elementary, Hardie Lane near Fernley Elementary, and the Newlands Drive stoplight, where traffic backups and unsafe driving have been reported. Officials say traffic stops aren’t always the best solution and may explore rerouting or alternate pickup locations to improve safety for students and drivers. 10/09/2025 03:53 PM
