CONCLUSION
Conclusion Current property tax formula is complicated, unpredictable, and un-sustainable Depreciation and abatement caps will continue to erode what used to be Nevada's most stable revenue source Property tax has not kept pace with cost of maintaining services, threatening service reductions throughout the state Nevada stakeholders need to understand formula impacts and work with legislative leadership to fix what is broken
