We consider any information received and available through our website as if it were supplied in writing or through an in-person visit to our offices. We would like to clarify what is considered private and confidential in a public and open environment such as ours.

Nevada Revised Statute 239.010 states that, “All public books and public records of a governmental entity, the contents of which are not otherwise declared by law to be confidential, must be open at all times during office hours to inspection by any person…” “Public records” are regarded as those records that we generate or receive and then maintain in order to conduct city business.

We protect against disclosure of all information declared by law to be confidential. This includes:

• Personal medical records
• Criminal history records
• Gross revenue data submitted by our business licensees to calculate the business activity tax
• Communications between citizens and law offices
• Proposals subject to negotiation

Also kept confidential are credit card numbers used in transactions with the City of North Las Vegas.

Email addresses obtained as a result of a request to the City shall not be sold or distributed to private companies.

Email messages sent to any City of North Las Vegas address will be treated the same as any other written communication, and may be subject to public review. Email or other information requests sent to City web pages may be maintained in order to:

• Respond to the request
• Forward the request to the appropriate agency or department
• Communicate updates of interest to the public 
• Provide customer feedback to improve City services
