City staff described the Senior Enrichment Center as a 7,700-square-foot facility for residents age 50 and older offering exercise classes, a library and computer access, a game room, a craft room, an activities
nd a great room for dances and gatherings. Staff said the site also supports the city\fongregate and home-delivered meal programs and that the center previously served roughly 3,100 meals per month before the expansion. The center expansion was funded in part by a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) of about $1 million, city general-fund dollars and construction by TR Orr, with Selberg Incorporated providing engineering design. Staff said the county provided a generator through Hilde Angus.

City Manager Toby Cotter told council that the city will increase the Community Park entry fee for non-residents this summer from $20 to $25, which the manager said currently generates about $650,000 annually for park operations. He estimated the increase would add approximately $150,000 more to park revenues. Cotter emphasized that Bullhead City residents do not pay the fee and noted an existing $50 annual pass option for Laughlin and Fort Mohave residents; he said the council could revisit that pass level at a future meeting.

Staff encouraged residents age 50 and older to use the center and said hundreds have already taken part in activities. The city did not present a formal ordinance or fee resolution at the meeting; the manager described administrative fee-setting authority and indicated any change to the pass program for Laughlin and Fort Mohave residents would return to council for consideration.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Bullhead City - Regular City Council Meeting - Mar 18, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","Council heard a report that the city\u0007,700-square-foot Senior Enrichment Center is open and serving people 50 and older, funded in part by a CDBG grant of about $1 million; the city manager also announced a plan to raise Community Park parking fees from $20 to $25 for the summer season.","taxTitle","Bullhead City, Mohave County, Arizona","taxId",54694,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6631559,"Bullhead City updates RC track upgrades and opens summer-camp registration",490,2005000,2495000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2679748-c954a5d1ee65c78a7d9d9f1b8f6a67fc&start=2005&end=2495","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2679748-c954a5d1ee65c78a7d9d9f1b8f6a67fc/thumbnail_2005000.jpg","/articles/6631559/Bullhead-City/Mohave-County/Arizona/Bullhead-City-updates-RC-track-upgrades-and-opens-summer-camp-registration","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6631559-d9b3e7df145efa884420e9a7e925c1eb/orig.mp4?Expires=1771167745&Signature=gjPFNJEQ3wZFqq71DXD48zq57e4UAj0GZlGmGDYdD0wuqUavz2yxeDUUCRgKlKXpO76Q16gTMxMWh3Z3j0OpZD2w4TKnzoXkIYFiDNtiVFrLfK-pAfAktbgN25-3Yh6C7PKrsyDQ-~q3KpPWD7IU0SmdoOVcpMNkXr~AfnK0cV~P8D4rB~y85GrH0fwh0yrYfAKyC5zyBKuLzjL4QjS2NS82t45Kw6fB71j4~Oz6QPtO1K9XqUAMhEgqBxOlCoGLtpodFHFnjdTEpu2fzTMPqjsRNixPZWEbZ0g87cZbVFsWAGbDwRnSOwgEQ6yc2a4j-DGx95tLPpSsfgZK3RGG~g__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","City parks staff briefed the council on March 18 about recent work at the radio-controlled (RC) track in Rotary Park and on the upcoming summer recreation camps.

Parks staff said the RC project has attracted significant volunteer support and donations: S and S Concrete donated five loads of clay for the track, contractors and volunteers have been shaping the course, and a group called Gesualdo Racing donated a new pit lane and timing system valued at more than $11,000. The city has purchased four lights for the track and is installing power to the driver stand and storage shed. Staff described a planned concrete oval track next to the existing clay course and said parking surfaces between the north soccer field and the RC area will be improved with millings.

Dave Heath, speaking for Parks and Recreation, said a local volunteer (identified as Mac Marlon) is operating heavy equipment at no cost to shape the course, and that community members from Bullhead City and Las Vegas have joined the effort. Once the timing system is installed, scheduled races will begin and the department will publish a season schedule.

The presentation also covered the city'025 summer camp program. Registration opens April 1 through bullheadcity.com/recdesk for camps running May 27
round June 27. The city said it will run about 45 camps over five weeks covering sports (football, basketball, soccer), STEM (drone, science, media production), arts (baking, clay, painting), and more. An early-bird special will provide $5 off any camp from April 1 through April 13. Staff provided a contact for questions: Claire Adams, Senior Recreation Supervisor, (928) 763-0158.

Parks staff encouraged residents unfamiliar with RC racing to attend; volunteers will provide instruction. City staff said the combination of volunteer labor, material donations and city purchases is intended to make the RC track a sustainable community amenity and to support a full season of events.","Parks staff and volunteers described progress on Rotary Park\nn RC track upgrade that includes donated materials, new lighting, an oval concrete track and a donated timing system; city also announced summer camps running May 27\u0006/27 and April 1 registration opening with early-bird discounts.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6631562,"Bullhead City Council approves zoning, liquor license, well contract and general-plan amendment",791,3381000,4172000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2679748-c954a5d1ee65c78a7d9d9f1b8f6a67fc&start=3381&end=4172","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2679748-c954a5d1ee65c78a7d9d9f1b8f6a67fc/thumbnail_3381000.jpg","/articles/6631562/Bullhead-City/Mohave-County/Arizona/Bullhead-City-Council-approves-zoning-liquor-license-well-contract-and-general-plan-amendment","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6631562-bbc2d922efaf6f90ccce5c7d38fe38f5/orig.mp4?Expires=1771167745&Signature=fsMcMeBKH7yaSLq4zUpk0uGrTzD2XVMI9Y63-06mJRsHBIvr3R74bNcUZc408PvAim5es-JlbOZvCvqM9suNwONSR0ydR1wRUEiUxoGB~ekqRdIMK~UfXr9WNjdFYEhekbPQe81Slj5PnkBCw2136XdFlaxGTansW1ct4QtQ9IjKJSHrNDPBhQ-1uLqI0IHQEp8RXT5sHNX0vcnh81C-6APs6uUDm3Ycp5GH0rQoo6gMnUcJSShJWB~yIe9BHKcNXZeTzpKdA6zO24zO~R2LPh2NmaJtDBHtxSjDZTTBHE9yw2jKXT3qEH8GnI-cXRVOG2fgfE2M2zfpYFdGAl6FuQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Bullhead City Council on March 18 approved four separate agenda items, each by unanimous 7-0 votes: a restaurant liquor license application for Mioni’s Pizzeria, a zoning map change for a 0.17-acre parcel on Turquoise Road, a 33.7-acre general-plan amendment from regional commercial to medium-high-density residential, and a contract for a well-completion and transmission main project with K Constructors totaling up to $2,694,466.61.

Council opened and closed public hearings and took individual motions on each item. Staff recommended approval on the liquor-license application and planning items; no applicant representatives appeared for the liquor-license hearing. Planning staff said the Planning and Zoning Commission recommended the two land-use items by 6-0 votes. Engineers and utilities staff told council the well project attracted competitive bids and the winning bid was within engineering cost estimates.

Staff noted future zoning and platting steps will trigger required traffic and drainage studies.

Council also approved a consent agenda and a procedural waiver motion to waive full reading of ordinances and resolutions (motion carried 7-0). No formal amendments or split votes were recorded on the items above.

The actions complete routine permitting, utility infrastructure, and land-use steps. The general-plan amendment (Item 4) is only the first step for the developer; staff said subsequent zoning map change, platting, and traffic/drainage studies will be required before construction.","At its March 18 meeting, the Bullhead City Council voted unanimously on four agenda items: approval of a restaurant liquor license, a small zoning change, a general-plan amendment for 33.7 acres, and a well-completion and transmission main contract.","actionData","errors"]
