NRS 361.300 Time and manner for completion of secured tax roll; list of taxpayers and valuations; notice of assessed valuation.

1. On or before January 1 of each year, the county assessor shall transmit to the county clerk, post at the front door of the courthouse and publish in a newspaper published in the county a notice to the effect that the secured tax roll is completed and open for inspection by interested persons of the county.

2. If the county assessor fails to complete the assessment roll in the manner and at the time specified in this section, the board of county commissioners shall not allow the county assessor a salary or other compensation for any day after January 1 during which the roll is not completed, unless excused by the board of county commissioners.

3. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 4, each board of county commissioners shall by resolution, before December 1 of any fiscal year in which assessment is made, require the county assessor to prepare a list of all the taxpayers on the secured roll in the county and the total valuation of property on which they severally pay taxes and direct the county assessor:

(a) To cause such list and valuations to be printed and delivered by the county assessor or mailed by him or her on or before January 1 of the fiscal year in which assessment is made to each taxpayer in the county; or

(b) To cause such list and valuations to be published once on or before January 1 of the fiscal year in which assessment is made in a newspaper of general circulation in the county.

In addition to complying with paragraph (a) or (b), the list and valuations may also be posted in a public area of the public libraries and branch libraries located in the county, in a public area of the county courthouse and the county office building in which the county assessor's office is located, and on a website or other Internet site that is operated or administered by or on behalf of the county or county assessor.

4. A board of county commissioners may, in the resolution required by subsection 3, authorize the county assessor not to deliver or mail the list, as provided in paragraph (a) of subsection 3, to taxpayers whose property is assessed at $1,000 or less and direct the county assessor to mail to each such taxpayer a statement of the amount of his or her assessment. Failure by a taxpayer to receive such a mailed statement does not invalidate any assessment.

5. The several boards of county commissioners in the State may allow the bill contracted with their approval by the county assessor under this section on a claim to be allowed and paid as are other claims against the county.

6. Whenever:

(a) Any property on the secured tax roll is appraised or reappraised pursuant to NRS 361.260, the county assessor shall, on or before December 18 of the fiscal year in which the appraisal or reappraisal is made, deliver or mail to each owner of such property a written notice stating the assessed valuation of the property as determined from the appraisal or reappraisal.

(b) Any personal property billed on the unsecured tax roll is appraised or reappraised pursuant to NRS 361.260, the delivery or mailing to the owner of such property of an individual tax bill or individual tax notice for the property shall be deemed to constitute adequate notice to the owner of the assessed valuation of the property as determined from the appraisal or reappraisal.

7. If the secured tax roll is changed pursuant to NRS 361.310, the county assessor shall mail an amended notice of assessed valuation to each affected taxpayer. The notice must include:

(a) The information set forth in subsection 6 for the new assessed valuation.

(b) The dates for appealing the new assessed valuation.

8. Failure by the taxpayer to receive a notice required by this section does not invalidate the appraisal or reappraisal.

9. In addition to complying with subsections 6 and 7, a county assessor shall:

(a) Provide without charge a copy of a notice of assessed valuation to the owner of the property upon request.

(b) Post the information included in a notice of assessed valuation on a website or other Internet site, if any, that is operated or administered by or on behalf of the county or the county assessor.
