Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
1. If the assessment is made upon the
basis of frontage, the engineer shall assess each tract with such relative
portion of the whole amount to be levied as the length of front of such
premises bears to the whole frontage of all the tracts to be assessed, and the
frontage of all tracts to be assessed shall be deemed to be the aggregate
number of feet as determined upon for assessment by the engineer.
2. If the assessment is directed to be
according to another basis, the engineer shall assess upon each tract such
relative portion of the whole sum to be levied as is proportionate to the
estimated benefit according to such basis.
3. Regardless of the basis used, in cases
of wedge or V or any other irregularly shaped tracts, an amount apportioned
thereto shall be in proportion to the special benefits thereby derived.
4. No assessment shall exceed the amount
of the estimate of maximum special benefits to the tract assessed, as provided
in subsection 2 of NRS 271.300 .
5. No assessment for any one project shall
exceed the reasonable market value of the tract assessed, as determined by the
governing body.
6. Any amount which would be assessed
against any tract in the absence of both limitations provided in subsections 4
and 5 shall be defrayed by other than the levy of assessments.
