NRS361.4725. Exemption from partial abatements following certain fluctuations in taxable value of property.

      1.  Except as otherwise provided in this section and notwithstanding the provisions of NRS 361.4722, 361.4723 and 361.4724, if the taxable value of any parcel or other taxable unit of property:

      (a) Decreases by 15 percent or more from its taxable value on:

             (1) July 1, 2003; or

             (2) July 1 of the second year immediately preceding the lien date for the current year,

Ê whichever is later; and

      (b) For any fiscal year beginning on or after July 1, 2005, increases by 15 percent or more from its taxable value for the immediately preceding fiscal year,

Ê the amount of any ad valorem taxes levied in a county which, if not for the provisions of NRS 361.4722, 361.4723 and 361.4724, would otherwise have been collected for the property for that fiscal year as a result of that increase in taxable value, excluding any amount attributable to any increase in the taxable value of the property above the taxable value of the property on the most recent date determined pursuant to paragraph (a), must be levied on the property and carried forward each fiscal year, without any penalty or interest, in such a manner that one-third of that amount may be collected during that fiscal year and each of the succeeding 2 fiscal years.

      2.  If the total amount otherwise required to be collected during a fiscal year and each of the succeeding 2 fiscal years pursuant to subsection 1 for a parcel or other taxable unit of property is less than or equal to $100, the entire amount may be levied on the property and collected during that initial fiscal year.

      3.  The Nevada Tax Commission may exempt from the requirements of this section the levy of any taxes in an amount which is less than the cost of collecting those taxes.

      4.  The amount of any taxes levied on any property pursuant to this section must be added to the amount of ad valorem taxes each taxing entity would otherwise be entitled to receive for a fiscal year in the same proportion as the rate of ad valorem taxes levied in the county on the property by or on behalf of that taxing entity for that fiscal year bears to the combined rate of all ad valorem taxes levied in the county on the property by or on behalf of all taxing entities for that fiscal year.

      5.  The Nevada Tax Commission shall adopt such regulations as it deems appropriate to ensure that this section is carried out in a uniform and equal manner.
