Taxes Ad Valorem Taxes The principal local tax of the Las Vegas Water Utility is the ad valorem or general property tax. In Nevada, it is understood that county assessors have the power to fix assessed valuations of intracounty utilities, although the State Tax Commission, in the interest of equalization between counties, makes recommendations for assessed values and these are invariably ac­cepted by each county assessor and placed upon the tax rolls. The assessed values of the water utility properties of Las Vegas Land and Water Company as fixed by the Clark County Assessor have been as follows over the period 1938-1949: 1938 - $115,000 1939 - 130,000 1940 - 150,000 1941 - 150,000 1942 - 150,000 1943 - 225,000 1944 - $270,000 1945 - 270,000 1946 - 325,000 1947 - 375,000 1948 - 375,000 1949 - 400,000
