NRS 350A.152
Conditions upon issuance of state securities to acquire bonds issued by certain water authorities

  • acquisition of bonds of certain water authorities does not constitute indebtedness of members
  • property tax levied by member to pay member’s share of payments due on bonds.

1.

Before state securities may be issued pursuant to this chapter for the purpose of acquiring bonds which are issued by a water authority organized as a political subdivision created by cooperative agreement that operates in all or a portion of a county whose population is 700,000 or more:

(a)

The water authority must obtain approval for the bonds from the debt management commission of each county in which any member of the water authority that is obligated to make payments on the bonds of the water authority is located; and

(b)

The members of the water authority must contract with the water authority to make payments from the revenues of the members’ water systems that, in the aggregate, are fully sufficient to pay those bonds as they become due. If the water revenues of any such member are insufficient to pay that member’s share of the amount due on the bonds, the member shall pay the deficiency out of money available for that purpose in the general fund of the member. If the money in the general fund of the member is insufficient to pay fully any such deficiency promptly, the member shall levy a general ad valorem tax on all taxable property within the member’s boundaries at a rate necessary to produce revenue in an amount sufficient to pay that member’s share of the payments due on the bonds.

2.

Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (a) of subsection 1, the obligations of the members of the water authority to the water authority and the State of Nevada as a result of the acquisition of bonds of the water authority pursuant to this chapter do not constitute indebtedness of the members within the meaning of any constitutional, charter or statutory limitation or other provisions restricting the incurrence of any debt.

3.

A property tax levied pursuant to this section:

(a)

Shall be considered to have been levied for the payment of bonded indebtedness for the purposes of NRS 361.463.

(b)

Is exempt from the limitations on property taxes contained in chapter 354 of NRS.
