Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

3 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 0 costs, 2 mixed.

Park lease money stays local

Money from grazing leases and farm product sales on park lands goes into the State Parks Maintenance Account. The Division tracks this money by park area or region. Funds can be spent only in the same area or region where they were collected.

New grazing leases on park lands

The Division of State Parks can lease grazing and pasturage rights on state-owned park lands for up to 5 years and sell farm products grown there. It must advertise for bids and may reject them, but any negotiated deal cannot be below the highest bid. If a deed lets the original grantor match the top bid, the Division must allow that. Leases or sales to another state agency may skip bidding only if the rent or price equals what advertising would bring. The Division cannot lease or sell if that would harm the site’s scenic, recreational, scientific, or historical value, or conflict with a special act.

Parks manage leases; old rule repealed

Park lands follow the park-specific leasing and sale rules, not the general State Lands rules. The law repeals NRS 322.075. These are administrative changes to how Nevada manages state lands.
