1. If it appears to the satisfaction of the board of county commissioners that the
county of residence of an indigent person applying for relief is another county in

and within the limits of money which may be lawfully appropriated thereby for this
purpose pursuant to NRS 428.050 , 428.285 and 450.425 , and shall notify immediately the board of county commissioners of the county of
residence of the indigent person. 2. The notice must be in writing, attested by the clerk of the board of county commissioners,
