The purpose of the public hearings is to receive opinions from members of the public on the proposed budget and tax rates before final action is taken. The following is a list of the proposed tax rates for the various subdivisions in the county: 2026-2027 County Rate 1.3568 School Rate .7500 School Debt Rate .4000 Pershing General Hospital Rate .4200 State of Nevada Rate .1700* Combined County Rate 3.0968 City of Lovelock Rate .5624 Combined Rate (Lovelock) 3.6592* Town of Imlay Rate .1500 Combined Rate (Imlay) 3.2468 The amount of revenue that a political subdivision is allowed to generate by taxes ad valorem except for debt service is limited by NRS 354.59811 as follows: The tax rate must be set so that when applied to the current fiscal year's assessed valuation of all property which was taxed in the preceding fiscal year it will produce a 6 percent increase in revenue allowable from taxes ad valorem from the preceding fiscal year. Assessed value of property is determined pursuant to NRS 361.227 by establishing a "taxable value" of property which is the market value for land added to the replacement costs for improvements, less all applicable depreciation and obsolescence. The combined tax rate for taxes ad valorem is calculated as follows: 1. Operating rate (limited by NRS 354.59811) for each taxing entity. 2. Debt rate for each taxing entity, which is a rate sufficient to generate revenues to pay principal and interest on the outstanding tax supported debt. 3. Combined school rate which includes a legislatively approved operating rate for all schools in the state and the debt rate for each individual school district. 4. State rate which is a legislatively approved rate which is used to support special major statewide projects such as dams or state parks. *During the 2003 Legislature, laws were passed which increased the State Tax Rate by .02 from .15 to .17 and placed that .02 increase outside of the 3.64 statutory tax rate cap. Generally, tax bills are calculated by taking the assessed value of your property and multiplying it by the tax rate for your district. However, NRS 361.4722 provides that tax liability in an amount not to exceed 8% over the prior year will be abated for all property other than residential property. NRS 361.4723 and NRS 361.4724 provide that tax liability in excess of 3% over the prior year will be abated for residential property and for qualifying residential rental property. New property receives no abatement in the first year of existence. Unless there is a change between the Tentative and the Final Budgets, for which additional notice will be given, the tax rates published here will be used to calculate your tax liability; however, your tax bill will reflect all applicable abatements.
