Towns in Clark County: Las Vegas, Henderson, North Las Vegas.
Flood zone by address
ParcelSheet reads FEMA's National Flood Hazard Layer at the lot: the zone, whether it is a high risk area where lenders ask for flood insurance, and the base flood elevation where FEMA lists one. FEMA's countywide study for Clark County has 249 FIRM panels, the newest effective November 2011; no coastal V zones are mapped in it.
The official panel and any Letter of Map Amendment are at FEMA's Map Service Center. An elevation certificate for a Clark house comes from a licensed surveyor and is often on file with the county or city building office.
Property lines
The parcel outline, parcel number and mapped size come from the Nevada Division of Water Resources, county parcels in Nevada, so a Clark lot shows the same lines the county assessor draws. Clark County covers about 5,050,665 acres of land and 108,326 acres of water.
Mapped lines are approximate. The Clark County assessor keeps the parcel record (Clark County website); a licensed surveyor sets the true corners.
Zoning
Clark County zones its unincorporated land, and Las Vegas, Henderson, North Las Vegas each zone the land inside their limits. ParcelSheet shows the use the county assessor lists for the lot and links the county planning department for the district, the uses it allows and the lot size it needs.
ADU and guest houses
Under Nevada's planning and zoning law (Nevada Revised Statutes Chapter 278), local governments can allow an accessory dwelling unit on a lot with a house. Whether a Clark lot can add one depends on its district; the county planning department has the rule. ParcelSheet shows the mapped lot size and the ground's slope, the first two things the question turns on.
Septic and soil
ParcelSheet reads the USDA soil survey at the lot: the soil's name, its septic absorption rating and whether it is prime farmland. Clark County is soil survey area NV755, Clark County Area, Nevada, last updated September 2026, on Web Soil Survey.
A new or changed septic system in Clark County needs a permit from the Clark County health authority (Southern Nevada Health District in Clark County, Northern Nevada Public Health in Washoe County, the state environmental health section in most other counties).
Setbacks
Setbacks in Clark County come from the zoning district: the front, side and rear distances a house must keep. ParcelSheet does not draw setback lines; the county zoning office gives them for the lot's district, and Las Vegas, Henderson, North Las Vegas for land inside their limits.
