Nevada Pro-Hobbyist Inoperable Vehicle Bill Signed Into Law

Nevada Governor Brian Sandoval has signed into law SEMA amended legislation that originally threatened to add abandoned, unregistered, inoperable or junk motor vehicles to the list of items that constitute a public nuisance.   Under existing law, counties and cities may remove a public nuisance at the property owner’s expense if, after notice, the property owner does not remove the nuisance.  Under the SEMA-drafted amendment, abandoned, inoperable or junk vehicles stored on private property would only require screening from public view in counties having populations of 700,000 or more people.  Unregistered vehicles could not be declared a nuisance under the SEMA amendment.

Thank you and congratulations to all who participated in supporting the amended bill!
