Summary
Nevada Executive Order 2026-005, signed on 17 September 2026 and effective immediately, sets minimum terms before the Governor's Office of Economic Development may bring a data center's NRS 360.754 partial tax abatement application to the Board of Economic Development, including keeping a combined sales and use tax rate of at least 4.6 percent. It applies to applications not yet acted on by the Board and stays in effect until rescinded or superseded. It does not change NRS 360.754 itself or local land use authority.
What this does not establish
- This record summarizes Section 2 and the effectiveness clause; the order's other minimum terms (including a community support commitment) are not all restated.
- The order conditions which applications reach the Board; it does not repeal or amend the statutory abatement (record nv-nrs-360754-data-center-abatement).
- The copy used here is the governor's HTML page text read directly, with no OCR.
Unresolved questions
- Whether any data center application has been brought to the Board under the new terms was not checked.
Relationships
Supersession means a later instrument replaces the earlier legal effect. Repeal links identify the repeal instrument and the measure it ends. A later implementation or related letter is not treated as a replacement unless the record says so.
