Chapter 484B - DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SAFETY
Section 484B.Sec. 1 - NEW

1. For the purposes of NRS 484B.313, a way is not a "highway," as defined in NRS 484A.095, at any time during which the way is temporarily closed, or intermittently closed and reopened, to the public for purposes of vehicular traffic because of a special event.

2. A public authority may allow, subject to any conditions established in a permit issued by the public authority, the organizer of a special event for which a way will be temporarily closed, or intermittently closed and reopened, to the public for purposes of vehicular traffic to place and maintain on the way, or a bridge over the way, for a period of time established by the public authority, but not to exceed 14 consecutive days, a temporary sign, signal, marking, banner, placard or billboard bearing thereon any commercial advertising of the organizer, or any of its sponsors or partners.

3. Except as otherwise provided in this subsection, if, pursuant to subsection 2, a temporary sign, signal, marking, banner, placard or billboard is affixed to a pole, building, fence, gate or any other structure authorized by the public authority and located within 20 feet of a portion of a way that will be intermittently closed and reopened to the use of the public for purposes of vehicular traffic, or on a bridge over such a way, because of a special event, the organizer of the special event must ensure that during any time that the portion of the way is open to the public for purposes of vehicular traffic, the temporary sign, signal, marking, banner, placard or billboard is obscured or converted in a manner such that it does not constitute a hazard upon or prevent the safe use of the way by the public. This subsection does not apply to any structure on which permanent or long-term advertising is allowed pursuant to any other provision of law.

4. Nothing in this section limits the applicability of any other local, state or federal law, regulation or licensing requirement.

5. As used in this section, "special event" means a sporting event, concert, festival or any other similar type of event which is designated as a special event by the public authority with jurisdiction over a way and which is issued a permit as a special event by that public authority.
