Major General Plan Amendment (4,400 acres)

Description

A request to shift roughly 4,400 acres from residential to about 2,600 acres of light industrial — widely associated with a possible data center. The council postponed the hearing and any legal action to December 1 at the applicant's request.

Impact summary

Approval would not rezone anything by itself but would be the first step toward industrial development, including any future data center, in west Bullhead City.

4,400-acre General Plan amendment and potential data center

A property owner wants to convert roughly 4,400 acres south of Laughlin Ranch from mostly residential to about 2,600 acres of light industrial use — the change widely linked to a possible data center. Dozens of residents opposed it over water, traffic, noise, and loss of desert open space, and the council postponed the decision to December 1 so the applicant can host open houses. No data center plan has actually been submitted, and several council members said they remain undecided.
