REVIEW OF NEVADAS REVENUE STRUCTURE FOR STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS
Senate Concurrent Resolution 37 of the 2009 Nevada Legislature directs the Interim
Finance Committee to retain the services of a qualified, independent consultant to
review Nevadas public revenue structure and develop recommendations to provide
long-term stabilization of revenue, including proposals for broad-based taxes and
strategies for mitigating tax burdens on both businesses and consumers.
In addition to the revenue stabilization study process, the consultant will compile and
analyze data on Nevadas national rankings in quality-of-life areas and coordinate with
the Nevada Vision Stakeholder Group to develop strategies to advance Nevadas
rankings in key quality-of-life areas including education, health and human services,
public safety, economic diversification, job creation, public transit and transportation,
and energy use.
