Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
1. The payment of the amount so assessed,
including each installment thereof, the interest thereon, and any penalties and
collection costs, is secured by an assessment lien upon the tract assessed from
the effective date of the assessment ordinance.
2. The final assessment roll, endorsed by
the clerk as the roll designated in the assessment ordinance, must be recorded
in the office of the county recorder together with a statement that the current
payment status of any of the assessments may be obtained from the county or
municipal officer who has been directed by the governing body to collect the
assessment. Neither the failure to record the assessment roll as provided in
this subsection nor any defect in the roll as recorded affects the validity of
the assessments, the lien for the payment thereof or the priority of that lien.
3. Notwithstanding the provisions of any
other specific statute, the lien upon each tract assessed is:
(a) Coequal with the latest lien thereon to
secure the payment of general taxes.
(b) Not subject to extinguishment by the sale of
any property on account of the nonpayment of general taxes.
(c) Prior and superior to all liens, claims,
encumbrances and titles other than the liens of assessments and general taxes
attached to the tract pursuant to the provisions of NRS 361.450 .
4. No statute of limitations begins to run
against any assessment nor the assessment lien to secure its payment until
after the last installment of principal thereof becomes due.
