Section 1 also authorizes such an ordinance to establish certain standards and requirements to qualify for such a by-right development. Section 1 further provides that any such ordinance does not apply to any property: (1) that is zoned for or in relation to an airport; or (2) within the region defined in the Tahoe Regional Planning Compact. (NRS 277.200) Section 1 further provides that property zoned for commercial use does not include property zoned for industrial use. Section 5 of this bill declares void any ordinance, regulation or rule of a county or city which conflicts with the provisions of this bill.

Within a zoning district, the governing body may regulate and restrict the erection, construction, reconstruction, alteration, repair or use of buildings, structures or land. (NRS 278.250) Section 4 of this bill creates an exception to account for the requirement that the governing body of a county or city adopt an ordinance to authorize by-right a multifamily housing development or mixed-use development that includes a resident
