1. In addition to all other taxes imposed on the revenues from the rental of transient lodging, the governing body may by ordinance impose a tax upon all persons in the business of providing transient lodging within the boundaries of the district at a rate not to exceed 2 percent of the gross receipts from the rental of transient lodging.

2. The collection of the tax imposed pursuant to this section must not commence earlier than the first day of the second calendar month after adoption of the ordinance imposing the tax.

3. The tax may be waived or imposed at different rates in certain areas or for a particular business if:

(a) The governing body determines that certain areas will receive less benefits from the project constructed with the proceeds of the tax or any obligations payable therefrom.

(b) The governing body determines that a business does not have sufficient rooms dedicated to providing transient lodging for it to benefit equally from the project constructed with the proceeds of the tax or any obligations payable therefrom.

4. The determinations made by the governing body pursuant to subsection 3 are conclusive unless it is shown that it acted with fraud or a gross abuse of discretion.

5. A tax imposed pursuant to this section must be collected and enforced in the same manner as provided for the collection of the tax imposed by NRS 268.096.

6. The collection of the tax imposed pursuant to this section must cease upon the final payment of:

(a) The bonds initially issued to which the tax imposed pursuant to this section is pledged; or

(b) Any bonds refunding those initially issued bonds, but any such refunding bonds may not have a final payment date that is later than the final payment date of the bonds initially issued.
