Bill overview
This bill revises how cities in Nevada can expand or shrink their boundaries. If a county with a population of 700,000 or more hasn't established a regional planning coalition, the county board of commissioners must create a similar public body to handle annexation and detachment duties. The bill also creates city annexation and detachment commissions in those counties, outlining their powers and procedures for reviewing and approving or disapproving proposals to annex or detach territory. It includes provisions for public hearings and requires cities to adopt annexation programs.
