Uber?

En route to Vegas now for anniversary #4; was just curious if anyone knows the current status of Uber in Vegas?  So sick of cabs.

The state legislature is still debating the terms under which they want to allow them in, if at all. Uber and Lyft both have offices in Vegas and are even recruiting drivers, but have been informed by the Nevada Transportation Authority that they'll be fined to hell and back for actually operating. Right now the NTA is thinking of charging the companies a $300K-$500K fee per year to operate, plus an extra tax on each ride (I've heard numbers ranging up to 5.5% in various news stories). This sums up the latest I've heard: http://lasvegassun.com/news/2015/aug/05/draft-rules-uber-lyft-nevada-suggests-300000-fee/
