Section 10 Wastewater Plant Expansion Concerns
Nearly $5.8 million approved for two blower buildings at the Section 10 plant and new membranes at Section 18 — invisible but essential spending paid through sewer rates near the Colorado River watershed.
Laughlin Ranch Major General Plan Amendment
A proposal to shift roughly 4,400 acres south of Laughlin Ranch from mostly residential to light industrial has become a proxy fight over a possible data center. Hundreds of residents packed the chamber in opposition; the hearing is now December 1.
Utility Auction
Bullhead City is selling off two small water systems in Fort Mohave with a starting price of $2.3 million. This public auction could shake up how water is managed and how much you pay for it in that area.
Lakeside Drive Emergency Manhole Rehabilitation
Residents expressed concerns about unmanaged standing water and drainage issues creating mosquito problems in neighborhoods.
Hazardous Waste Disposal
Bullhead City just hosted a free hazardous waste drop-off day, letting residents clear out old oil and chemicals safely. It's a quick win for getting rid of toxic junk without trashing the neighborhood.
