Las Vegas, Nev., Mun. Code § 16.22 (2026) § 16.22.020
Converted non-transient lodging property
Operative Text
(A) The provisions of this Chapter apply to all existing and future buildings or portions thereof that function as converted non-transient lodging property, as defined in this Chapter, whether or not the persons or entities owning the property are located within the boundaries of the City. This Chapter is not an exclusive regulation of such housing within the City, but is intended to supplement, be cumulative with, and be in addition to other regulatory ordinances or enactments by government authorities having jurisdiction. The authority of the City to enforce the provisions of this Chapter is independent of and in addition to the authority of City officials to enforce any other provisions of this Code. (B) Before conducting an initial inspection of any property under the authority of this Chapter, the City shall notify the owner of the property (and the property manager, if known) that the property is identified and considered to be a converted non-transient lodging property subject to this Chapter.
Las Vegas Municipal Code § 16.22.020 establishes that the rules governing converted non-transient lodging properties apply to all such buildings—existing or future—regardless of where the property owner is located. This chapter works alongside, rather than replacing, other applicable local or governmental regulations, meaning a property can be subject to multiple overlapping regulatory frameworks simultaneously. Before the City conducts an initial inspection under this chapter, it is required to give advance written notice to the property owner and, if known, the property manager.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Las Vegas Mun. Code § 16.22.020, operators of converted non-transient lodging properties should be aware that City oversight applies to their buildings even if they are based outside Las Vegas city limits. Compliant operators typically maintain current ownership and management contact information with the City so that required pre-inspection notices can be received without delay. Because this chapter supplements rather than replaces other City codes, operators generally track all applicable regulatory frameworks that may govern the same property.

Las Vegas Mun. Code § 16.22.020 establishes that residents of converted non-transient lodging properties are covered by this chapter's protections regardless of where the property owner is based. The provision also makes clear that the City's enforcement authority here is independent of its authority under other codes, meaning tenants may have multiple regulatory frameworks available to them when seeking to address housing concerns. Tenants who believe their building qualifies as a converted non-transient lodging property under this chapter may wish to contact the City of Las Vegas directly or consult a local tenant-rights organization to understand what inspections or protections may apply.
