Las Vegas Municipal Code § 16.22.010
in effect16.22.010 - Purpose.
The purpose of this Chapter is to encourage and facilitate the provision of safe, sanitary and affordable rental housing options for residents in the City. In addition to traditionally-developed rental properties, many properties within the City that were developed as motels or to provide transient lodging have been converted, in whole or in part, to operations such as apartment hotels, residence hotels, or similar properties that provide longer-stay options in the form of non-transient lodging. This Chapter is intended to provide for a program of inspection of this latter type of non-transient lodging. The program is designed not only to respond to complaints but to provide for routine periodic inspections with the goals of reducing substandard housing, promoting compliance with applicable codes, and helping safeguard health, property, safety and welfare.
