Nevada § 361.765 - Correction of clerical and typographical errors on tax rolls

§ 361.765. Correction of clerical and typographical errors on tax rolls

1. If a clerical or typographical error or errors appear upon the real or personal

property tax roll of any county which have not been corrected by any officer or board

vested by law with the duty of correcting such errors, the county assessor of the

county upon whose tax roll such errors appear shall make a report thereof to the board

of county commissioners of the county. 2. The board of county commissioners shall thereupon examine the error or errors so

reported, together with such evidence as may be presented in connection therewith,

and, if satisfied that the errors or any of them are purely clerical or typographical

shall: (a) By an order entered in the minutes of the board authorize and direct the county

treasurer to correct the error or errors so reported so as to conform to the true

assessment; and (b) Deliver a copy of the order to the county treasurer, who shall thereupon make

the corrections and change the tax roll or rolls in conformity therewith. 3. If it appears that corrections of mathematical or typographical errors on the tax

roll are necessary, the county assessor may, with the concurrence of the county treasurer,

make corrections in the assessed valuation of any property within the county. When such corrections are made, the county treasurer shall make such adjustments as

are necessary to the tax rolls for fiscal years within 3 years after the fiscal year

for which the corrections were made. The adjustment may be a full refund or a credit against taxes due which may be allocated

over a period no longer than 3 years. 4. At the end of each fiscal year the county treasurer shall report to the board of

county commissioners all corrections made under subsection 3 during such fiscal year.

The board of county commissioners shall approve or disapprove each correction reported.

The county treasurer shall make any adjustments to the tax rolls made necessary by

the disapproval by the board of county commissioners of any corrections made.
