Nevada Revised Statutes Title 20. Counties and Townships: Formation, Government and Officers § 244.3695. Graffiti reward and abatement fund: Creation; use; administrative assessments; payment of rewards

1. The board of county commissioners shall create a graffiti reward and abatement fund. The money in the fund must be used to pay a reward to a person who, in response to the offer of a reward, provides information which results in the identification, apprehension and conviction of a person who violates a county ordinance that prohibits graffiti or other defacement of property.

2. When a defendant pleads or is found guilty or guilty but mentally ill of violating a county ordinance that prohibits graffiti or other defacement of property, the court shall include an administrative assessment of $250 for each violation in addition to any other fine or penalty. The money collected must be paid by the clerk of the court to the county treasurer on or before the fifth day of each month for credit to the graffiti reward and abatement fund.

3. If sufficient money is available in the graffiti reward and abatement fund, a county law enforcement agency may offer a reward, not to exceed $1,000, for information leading to the identification, apprehension and conviction of a person who violates a county ordinance that prohibits graffiti or other defacement of property. The reward must be paid out of the graffiti reward and abatement fund upon approval of the board of county commissioners.
