Beekeeping in North Las Vegas is governed by Title 6 Animals and Nevada Department of Agriculture registration under NRS 552. Residential placement is limited by setbacks.
North Las Vegas has no express citywide beekeeping ban but regulates hive keeping under NLVMC Title 6 and through zoning setback rules. Beekeepers must register annually with the Nevada Department of Agriculture under NRS 552 (Apiaries), maintaining healthy hives free of American foulbrood and other notifiable diseases. Hives are typically restricted to rear yards with setbacks from property lines (commonly 10 to 25 feet), a flyway barrier (6-foot fence or hedge) and a fresh water source on the beekeeper lot. Swarm capture and feral hive removal in the desert climate are handled by Nevada State Beekeepers Association volunteers. HOA CC and R rules under NRS 116 commonly prohibit beekeeping entirely in master-planned subdivisions like Aliante, Eldorado, and Centennial Hills. Africanized honey bees are established in Clark County and compliance with registration supports tracking.
