Summary
Curbs bordering a disabled-parking space in unincorporated Clark County must be painted blue, per Clark County Code § 14.41.040: covering the Strip's Paradise and Winchester townships, though incorporated cities like Las Vegas set their own rules.
Notice of the designation of parking spaces for persons with disabilities pursuant to this chapter shall be given by the posting of signs in the vicinity of such spaces conforming to the requirements of NRS 484B.467 together with any abutting curbs being painted blue. If no curbs abut such parking spaces, the pavement for these spaces may be marked with blue parking stripes.

Full Breakdown
Clark County Code § 14.41.040 sets the county's curb-painting standard for accessible parking: any curb bordering a space reserved for persons with disabilities must be painted blue, and where there's no curb the pavement itself gets blue striping instead. Signage must also meet NRS 484B.467. The rule covers unincorporated Clark County only, including Paradise and Winchester townships, home to the Las Vegas Strip resorts, since Las Vegas, Henderson, North Las Vegas, Boulder City and Mesquite run their own municipal codes. Harry Reid International Airport uses a separate color-code system set by administrative directive under Chapter 20.08, not this section.
Violations & Fines
Parking in a blue-curb disabled space without an authorized plate, placard or sticker draws a citation under Chapter 14.41; bail is $10 within ten days, $15 after.
