§ 6.20.005. Declaration of policy.

The board finds that the motion picture, television, video and still photography industry is welcomed to the unincorporated area of Clark County. The board further finds that the industry provides a valuable service to the citizens of Clark County through publicity generated on behalf of the county and state as well as the positive economic effects of the community. However, it is found and declared that the public health, safety and welfare of the inhabitants of the county outside of the incorporated cities and towns require regulation of the industry insofar as such filming impacts public property, public rights-of-way and public welfare. Any such filming shall be regulated so as to protect the public health, safety, good order and general welfare of the inhabitants of the county. It is further found and declared that a permit to film in the unincorporated area of Clark County is a privileged permit and no applicant shall be granted such a privilege without first complying with the provisions of this chapter.
