DOLAN SPRINGS – Mohave County Development Services staff on Monday, August 20, held a workshop on the General Plan for Dolan Springs, Meadview and White Hills. The workshop, which attracted about 35 participants, was for the purpose of getting public input on the zoning for eight sub-areas as well as the overall county areas. County sub-areas are the Arizona Strip, White Hills/Dolan Springs/Meadview, East Central, Bullhead City, Lake Havasu City, Golden Valley, Kingman Area, and Southeast which includes Yucca. The county is required by statute to update the plan every 10 years and the last update was in 2015
