If any information necessary to determine the class of a golf course pursuant to subsection 2 is unavailable, a county assessor shall use his best judgment to determine the class of the golf course.4. A county assessor shall assign a cost per hole to a golf course which, except as otherwise provided in this subsection, must be within the cost range per hole for the class of the golf course, as specified in the recreational facilities section for golf courses in Marshall and Swift. The county assessor may assign a cost per hole which exceeds the maximum amount of that cost range only by:(a) A maximum amount of 3 percent, as appropriate, to account for any excessive grading required for the golf course land; and(b) The appropriate recreational facilities multiplier and local cost multiplier, as specified in Marshall and Swift.5. The replacement cost of the golfing improvements must be calculated by:(a) Multiplying the appropriate cost per hole, as determined pursuant to subsection 4 for the class of the golf course, by the number of holes on the golf course; and(b) Adding the amount of any additional unit costs for bridges, man-made water features and special drainage requirements, as specified in Marshall and Swift, to the amount determined pursuant to paragraph (a).Nev.
