AN ACT making an appropriation to the North Las Vegas Library District for the advanced planning through design development of a second public library in North Las Vegas; and providing other matters properly relating thereto.

Whereas, The City of North Las Vegas has more than doubled in population within the last 6 years; and
Whereas, The residents of the northwest section of North Las Vegas who have experienced this phenomenal growth do not have a library facility; and
Whereas, The North Las Vegas Library District is the only district in southern Nevada with only one library facility; and
Whereas, The existing library facility in North Las Vegas cannot meet the needs of this increased population; now, therefore,

THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEVADA, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEMBLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

Section 1 There is hereby appropriated from the state general fund to the North Las Vegas Library District the sum of $350,000 for the advanced planning through design development of a second public library in North Las Vegas.
Sec. 2 Any remaining balance of the appropriation made by section 1 of this act must not be committed for expenditure after June 30, 1999, and reverts to the state general fund as soon as all payments of money committed have been made.
Sec. 3 This act becomes effective upon passage and approval or on June 30, 1997, whichever occurs earlier.
