1. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 2, a public administrator may file with the board of county commissioners a request for payment for expenses incurred in the performance of such duties. The amount to be paid as expenses must be determined by the board. Payment must be made from the general fund of the county if the board approves the request and determines that there is sufficient money in the fund to pay the public administrator or other suitable person designated by the board to perform those duties. This subsection does not require the board to authorize payment of any expense that can be paid from the assets of a person or an estate.
2. The provisions of this section do not apply if the office of public administrator is abolished pursuant to NRS 253.125.
