Nev. Rev. Stat. § 268.785
in effect1. After creation of the district, the council shall annually ascertain and include in its budget the total amount of money to be derived from assessments required to provide the higher level of police protection found beneficial to the public interest for the next ensuing fiscal year.
2. The city council shall designate an existing citizens group within the area or create an advisory committee, to recommend to the council any appropriate changes in the level or kind of additional police protection to be provided in the district. The council shall consider these recommendations, and any others that may be offered by interested persons, at a public hearing before adopting its annual budget for the district.
3. The total amount of money to be derived from assessments for the next ensuing fiscal year must be apportioned among the individual property owners in the district based upon the relative special benefit received by each property using an apportionment method approved by the city council. On or before April 20 of each year, a notice specifying the proposed amount of the assessment for the next ensuing fiscal year must be mailed to each property owner. The city council shall hold a public hearing concerning the assessments at the same time and place as the hearing on the tentative budget. The city council shall levy the assessments after the hearing but not later than June 1. The assessments so levied must be paid in installments on or before the dates specified for installments paid pursuant to subsection 6 of NRS 361.483 . Any installment payment that is not paid on or before the date on which it is due, together with any interest or penalty and the cost of collecting any such amounts, is a lien upon the property upon which it is levied equal in priority to a lien for general taxes and may be collected in the same manner.
4. A district is not entitled to receive any distribution of supplemental city-county relief tax.
