Planning and Zoning Commission approves Bank Street rezoning RZ25-001
Summary
The City of Kingman Planning and Zoning Commission voted unanimously Feb. 12 to approve a city-initiated rezoning that changes 1.93 acres along North Bank Street from rural residential to community business (C‑2).
The City of Kingman Planning and Zoning Commission on Feb. 12, 2025 voted 7-0 to approve a city-initiated rezoning, RZ25-001, to change 1.93 acres of a 3.02-acre parcel at the northwest corner of North Bank Street and Coronado Avenue from rural residential (RR) to community business (C‑2).
Jason, Development Services staff, told commissioners the parcel is part of the broader Bank Street commercial corridor and that the rezoning would bring the property into consistency with the City of Kingman general plan, which designates the site for regional commercial use. "Based on the findings contained in your staff report, staff does recommend approval of RZ25-001 to the mayor and the city council," Jason said during the presentation.
The rezoning applies to the portion of the 3.02-acre parcel that fronts Bank Street; 1.15 acres fronting Arizona Street would retain the RR designation. Jason said the property was omitted from an earlier Bank Street rezoning in January while staff prepared a legal description limited to the frontage on Bank Street.
Staff reported no outstanding agency comments. The record shows a neighborhood meeting was held in October 2024 for parcels along Bank Street; notices were mailed on Jan. 21, 2025 to owners within 300 feet, and the site was posted and published in the Kingman Daily Miner in late January. Staff received one email opposing rezoning along Arizona Street; staff contacted the sender to clarify that the current request did not change parcels fronting Arizona Street and received no further correspondence.
Chair Goss opened the public hearing; no members of the public spoke. A motion to approve the rezoning passed on a roll-call vote with all seven commissioners voting in favor: Chair Goss — approved; Vice Chair Swapp — approved; Commissioner Sicksta — approved; Commissioner Noble — approved; Commissioner McCoy — approved; Commissioner Sarkeesian — approved; Commissioner Waters — approved. The commission recorded the action as an approval and will forward the recommendation as provided by staff.
The staff report and the commission record state the rezoning would allow the continuation and completion of the Bank Street commercial corridor and that the site is of a size suitable for commercial development. No amendments were offered during the commission discussion.
