Terms Used In Nevada Revised Statutes 278.02053

  • Amendment: A proposal to alter the text of a pending bill or other measure by striking out some of it, by inserting new language, or both. Before an amendment becomes part of the measure, thelegislature must agree to it.
  • Complaint: A written statement by the plaintiff stating the wrongs allegedly committed by the defendant.
  • Equitable: Pertaining to civil suits in "equity" rather than in "law." In English legal history, the courts of "law" could order the payment of damages and could afford no other remedy. See damages. A separate court of "equity" could order someone to do something or to cease to do something. See, e.g., injunction. In American jurisprudence, the federal courts have both legal and equitable power, but the distinction is still an important one. For example, a trial by jury is normally available in "law" cases but not in "equity" cases. Source: U.S. Courts
  • person: means a natural person, any form of business or social organization and any other nongovernmental legal entity including, but not limited to, a corporation, partnership, association, trust or unincorporated organization. See Nevada Revised Statutes 0.039

2.  On the date and at the time and place fixed for the hearing, any person having a legal or equitable interest in the land or any other interested person may give oral or written testimony to the governing body concerning the proposed amendment to or cancellation of the agreement.

3.  The governing body shall consider all the testimony presented at the hearing and any other relevant information presented at the hearing and, after the conclusion of the hearing, make a determination concerning whether to amend or cancel the agreement.

4.  Any complaint, protest or objection to:

(a) The proposed amendment to or cancellation of the agreement;

(b) The effect of the proposed amendment to or cancellation of the agreement on the zoning or entitlements related to the property that is subject to the agreement; or

(c) The regularity, validity or correctness of any proceedings relating to or actions taken with respect to the hearing on or before the date of the hearing, shall be deemed waived unless presented at the hearing or received in writing by the clerk of the governing body at least 3 business days before the date of the hearing.
