1. The ordinance authorizing the issuance of bonds or any other instrument relating thereto may fix the rate or rates of interest on the bonds or provide for the determination of the rate or rates of interest on the bonds from time to time by a designated agent according to the procedure specified in that ordinance or other instrument. The rate so determined must approximate the rates then being paid for other securities which contain similar provisions and have an equivalent rating. The governing body may contract with or select any person to make that determination.
2. The ordinance or other instrument providing for the determination of the rate or rates of interest must contain findings of the governing body that the procedure specified for determining that rate or rates is reasonable under existing or anticipated conditions in the market and is necessary and advisable for marketing the securities. These findings are conclusive. This section does not prohibit the governing body from fixing a maximum rate of interest.
3. If the ordinance authorizing the issuance of bonds or other instrument relating thereto provides for the determination of the rate or rates of interest on the bonds from time to time as provided in subsection 1, the rate of interest on the bonds, the rate of interest on unpaid installments of assessments and the rate or rates of interest imposed for reimbursement of any advances made under an agreement pursuant to NRS 271.489 are not subject to any limitation on rates of interest provided by statute.
4. If the rate of interest on the bonds is determined from time to time as provided in this section, the resolution or ordinance fixing the rate of interest on the unpaid installments of assessments required by NRS 271.415 may provide that the rate of interest on the assessments will also be determined from time to time by a designated agent according to the procedure specified in that resolution or ordinance. The rate or rates of interest on the installments of the assessments as so determined must not exceed the rate or rates of interest on the bonds by more than the sum of 1 percent per annum plus an amount sufficient to reimburse the municipality for any fees paid to an agent for redetermining the rate of interest on the bonds and for remarketing the bonds and for any fees or reimbursements of advances paid to a third party who has provided an assurance of payment of the principal and interest on, and the premiums, if any, due in connection with the bonds.
