county whose population is 100,000 or more but less than 700,000, as set forth
in NRS 278.026 to 278.029 , inclusive, ensures that
comprehensive planning will be carried out with respect to population,
conservation, land use and transportation, public facilities and services,
annexation and intergovernmental coordination.
2. The process of regional planning set
forth in NRS 278.026 to 278.029 , inclusive, does not specifically
limit the premature expansion of development into undeveloped areas or address
the unique needs and opportunities that are characteristic of older
neighborhoods in a county whose population is 100,000 or more but less than
700,000.
3. The problem of the premature expansion
of development into undeveloped areas and the unique needs and opportunities
that are characteristic of older neighborhoods may be addressed through:

(b) Review of the master plans, facilities plans
and other similar plans of local governments and other affected entities.
4. It is the intent of the Legislature
with respect to NRS 278.026 to 278.029 , inclusive, that each local
government and affected entity shall exercise its powers and duties in a manner
that is in harmony with the powers and duties exercised by other local
governments and affected entities to enhance the long-term health and welfare
of the county and all its residents.
