Does North Las Vegas have its own rule?

What the statute says
NAC § 425.140 — Nevada child support guidelines (2020 tiered percentages). Since February 1, 2020 Nevada uses marginal tiers of gross monthly income: a higher percentage on the first $6,000, about half that rate on $6,001–$10,000, and a lower rate above $10,000. Joint physical custody offsets each parent's obligation against the other's.
