Shall the

as additional Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department officers are hired under this
assessment. Based upon the current statutory formula and assessed valuation, the tax rate
will be $.1549 per $100 assessed valuation in each year beginning in FY2001/2002. This
additional ad valorem rate may change in future years based on changes in the statutory
formula for the County's obligation to fund the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department

of the County of Clark. Regardless of the formula or assessed valuation, this rate may not
exceed $.20 per $100 assessed valuation.
