Upon approval of the registered voters of a county voting on a question presented to the voters pursuant to NRS 277A.470 recommending the imposition of a tax on the gross receipts of any retailer from the sale of all tangible personal property sold at retail, or stored, used or otherwise consumed, in the county, the board of county commissioners shall impose a tax by ordinance on the gross receipts of any retailer from the sale of all tangible personal property sold at retail, or stored, used or otherwise consumed, in the county. The tax must be imposed throughout the county, including all cities within the county, upon all retailers in the business of selling tangible personal property. Any ordinance enacted under this subsection must include provisions in substance as follows:

1. Provisions substantially identical to those contained in chapter 374 of NRS, insofar as applicable.

2. A provision that all amendments to chapter 374 of NRS after the date of enactment of the ordinance, not inconsistent with this chapter, automatically become a part of the ordinance.

3. A provision that the county shall, before the effective date of the ordinance, contract with the Department to perform all functions incident to the administration or operation of the tax in the county.

4. A provision that a purchaser is entitled to a refund, in accordance with the provisions of NRS 374.635 to 374.720, inclusive, of the amount of the tax required to be paid that is attributable to the tax imposed upon the sale of, and the storage, use or other consumption in a county of, tangible personal property used for the performance of a written contract for the construction of an improvement to real property, entered into on or before the effective date of the tax or the increase in the tax, or for which a binding bid was submitted before the date if the bid was afterward accepted, if under the terms of the contract or bid the contract price or bid amount cannot be adjusted to reflect the imposition of the tax or the increase in the tax.
