(a) Was in existence, had a population of less than 2,000 and was not collecting or authorized by ordinance to collect such a fee or tax, the local government may impose such a fee or tax in an amount approved by the Nevada Tax Commission which is not greater than the largest fee or tax imposed by a local government of the same kind. The fee or tax must not be increased.

(b) Was in existence, had a population of less than 2,000, and was authorized to collect but was not collecting such a fee or tax, the local government may impose such a fee or tax in an amount not greater than that authorized by ordinance.
