Full text of Nevada Nevada Revised Statutes § 271.400 — Assessment for street and alley intersections, with citation guidance and answers to common questions.
§ 271.400. Assessment for street and alley intersections
1. The cost of improvements in street intersections may be segregated. 2. Such cost, except the share assessable to street or other railway companies, may
be assessed upon all frontage of the street improved (excluding an alley) and on intersecting
streets within a distance of one-half block in each direction from such intersections,
in proportion to the frontage of each lot or tract on the street improved (excluding
an alley) or on an intersecting street, or on both within such distance. 3. The cost of the improvement of an alley intersection may be assessed upon the assessable
property in the same block extending to the nearest street intersection and half the
length of the block along its sides. However where the sides of blocks are of unequal length, the governing body may determine
the limit of assessment. 4. In the alternative, the cost of improving street intersections (including alley
intersections) may be treated as one of the costs of any project without separately
segregating such intersection cost. In such case the total cost of any project shall be assessed as provided in subsections
1, 2 and 3 of NRS 271.365 upon the basis determined without any separate assessment for intersection costs.
