NRS 244.3358 (added by AB 363, 81st Session, 2021); Chapter 499, Statutes of Nevada 2021
§ NRS 244.3358 + NRS 268.095
Research notes
Floor, not ceiling — the statute mandates a regulatory framework in Clark County (currently the only 700k+ county) but does not preempt more restrictive local rules. Counties below 700k (including Washoe) and cities within them retain discretionary authority under NRS 268.095 (city business-license power) and NRS 244.335 (county business-license power). Greater Las Vegas Short-Term Rental Association v. Clark County and follow-on cases continue to test the boundary. The 2025 session did not amend AB 363's architecture despite active lobbying.
