Background and Scope of Services
The City of Fair Oaks Ranch (City) is seeking a qualified firm to develop the City’s first Facilities
Master Plan (Plan). The Plan will assess existing conditions, identify future facility requirements,
and provide recommendations to optimize site efficiency and utilization of City facilities. The Plan
will serve as a guiding document and provide a roadmap for potential future expansion or new
construction and the rearrangement of building or equipment spaces. A list of existing facilities
is available in Exhibit A for additional details.
The goals of the Plan are to assess the functionality and expandability of existing facilities,
prioritize improvements, and plan for future growth requirements to provide effective services and
ensure efficient workspaces are provided. The selected firm will be expected to deliver a
professional, data-driven Plan that aligns with the City’s vision and addresses current challenges,
future expansion, and operational efficiencies.
