NV Rev Stat § 354.59817 (2021)
2021 Nevada Revised Statutes|Chapter 354 - Local Financial Administration|NRS 354.59817 - Limitation upon revenue from taxes ad valorem: Levy of additional tax ad valorem for capital projects upon approval of voters.

  1. In addition to the allowed revenue from taxes ad valorem determined pursuant to NRS 354.59811, upon the approval of a majority of the registered voters of a county voting upon the question, the board of county commissioners may levy a tax ad valorem on all taxable property in the county at a rate not to exceed 15 cents per $100 of the assessed valuation of the county. A tax must not be levied pursuant to this section for more than 10 years.  2. The board of county commissioners shall direct the county treasurer to distribute quarterly the proceeds of any tax levied pursuant to the provisions of this section among the county and the cities and towns within that county in the proportion that the supplemental city-county relief tax distribution factor of each of those local governments for the 1990-1991 fiscal year bears to the sum of the supplemental city-county relief tax distribution factors of all the local governments in the county for the 1990-1991 fiscal year.  3. The board of county commissioners shall not reduce the rate of any tax levied pursuant to the provisions of this section without the approval of each of the local governments that receives a portion of the tax, except that, if a local government declines to receive its portion of the tax in a particular year, the levy may be reduced by the amount that local government would have received.  4. The governing body of each local government that receives a portion of the revenue from the tax levied pursuant to this section shall establish a separate capital projects fund for the purposes set forth in this section. All interest and income earned on the money in the fund must also be deposited in the fund. The money in the fund may only be used for:  (a) The purchase of capital assets, including land, improvements to land and major items of equipment;  (b) The construction or replacement of public works; and  (c) The renovation of existing governmental facilities, not including normal recurring maintenance.  The money in the fund must not be used to finance the issuance or the repayment of bonds or other obligations, including medium-term obligations and installment-purchase agreements.  5. Money may be retained in the fund for not more than 10 years to allow the funding of projects without the issuance of bonds or other obligations. For the purpose of determining the length of time a deposit of money has been retained in the fund, all money withdrawn from the fund shall be deemed to be taken on a first-in, first-out basis. No money in the fund at the end of the fiscal year may revert to any other fund, nor may the money be a surplus for any other purpose than those specified in this section.  6. The annual budget and audit report of each local government must specifically identify this fund and must indicate in detail the projects that have been funded with money from the fund. Any planned accumulation of the money in the fund must also be specifically identified.  7. The projects on which money raised pursuant to this section will be expended must be approved by the voters in the question submitted pursuant to subsection 1 or in a separate question submitted on the ballot at a general or special election.
