NRS  361A.200    Action on application by governing bodies of county and city:
Procedure.

or denial to the board of county commissioners no later than 90 days after
receipt of the application.
3.  The board of county commissioners shall
consider the application in a public hearing. The board shall use the

potential loss in revenue which may result from approving the application. The
board may set such conditions as it reasonably may require upon its approval of
the application.

and place of any public hearing held pursuant to this section shall be

by the board is not completed by March 31 is approved.
