1. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 2, the board of county commissioners of a county whose population is 100,000 or more but less than 700,000 may by ordinance impose a fee upon the lease of a passenger car by a short-term lessor in the county in the amount of not more than 2 percent of the total amount for which the passenger car was leased, excluding any taxes or other fees imposed by a governmental entity.

2. The fee imposed pursuant to subsection 1 must not apply to replacement vehicles. As used in this subsection, “replacement vehicle” means a vehicle that is:

(b) Used by the person in place of a motor vehicle owned by the person that is unavailable for use because of mechanical breakdown, repair, service, damage or loss as defined in the owner’s policy of liability insurance for the motor vehicle.

3. Any proceeds of a fee imposed pursuant to this section which are received by a county must be used solely to pay the costs to acquire, lease, improve, equip, operate and maintain within the county a minor league baseball stadium project, or to pay the principal of, interest on or other payments due with respect to bonds issued to pay such costs, including bonds issued to refund bonds issued to pay such costs, or any combination thereof.

4. The board of county commissioners shall not repeal or amend or otherwise directly or indirectly modify an ordinance imposing a fee pursuant to subsection 1 in such a manner as to impair any outstanding bonds issued by or other obligations incurred by the county until all obligations for which revenue from the ordinance have been pledged or otherwise made payable from such revenue have been discharged in full or provision for full payment and redemption has been made.

5. As used in this section, the words and terms defined in NRS 482.053 and 482.087 have the meanings ascribed to them in those sections.
