Highsmith / Library of Congress; Public domain; https://www.loc.gov/item/2013630402/) > About 38,000 square yards of streets and park parking lots will get a protective surface treatment over roughly a week, with lane closures and one-day lot closures at four park locations. **LAKE HAVASU CITY, Ariz.** — Lake Havasu City will begin sealing streets and park parking lots on Sunday, Oct. 18, as part of its pavement preservation program. The work is expected to take about a week. Crews will apply a high-density mineral bond (HA5) surface treatment, which protects asphalt and extends the life of roads and parking lots. About 38,000 square yards will be treated citywide, including designated streets and several city park parking lots. Because HA5 needs extra time to cure, drivers should expect delays, restrictions and temporary road and lane closures. The city asks motorists to follow traffic control, use alternate routes where possible, and stay off treated surfaces until traffic control devices are removed. Residents on scheduled streets will be notified before work begins and are asked not to park on affected streets and to avoid letting water run into the roadway during the work. Each park parking lot will be closed to vehicles for about 24 hours, starting early in the morning and reopening the next morning, with signs posted in advance. The schedule, which may change with the weather: - **Aquatic Center:** Sunday, Oct. 18 - **SARA Park Trailhead:** Monday, Oct. 19 - **Cypress Park South:** Wednesday, Oct. 21 - **Cypress Park East:** Thursday, Oct. 22 Maps and street lists are posted on the city's Streets page.

"There's a new king in town," Bullhead City local James Jacobs told Ground Level News during a conversation in Bullhead City. Jacobs said that since Don Laughlin gave up the mantle, Dean Ziroli is the one who has really moved in: getting the community going and keeping everybody together. Jacobs also said Ziroli is creating affordable housing through his company, Allegiant Homes. As public background: a February 2025 release from Allegiant Homes described Ziroli as the company's founder, said Allegiant Homes was founded about five years earlier, and said it builds affordable homes in Bullhead City, including its Desert Canyon community, while hiring local Mohave County workers ([EIN Presswire](https://www.einpresswire.com/article/789705490/allegiant-homes-brings-quality-affordable-living-to-bullhead-city-az)). For decades that title was Laughlin's. Don Laughlin opened the Riverside Resort on the Nevada bank of the Colorado River in 1966, and the river town of Laughlin, Nevada, directly across from Bullhead City, is named for him. He died of natural causes on October 22, 2023, at age 92, in his penthouse home at the Riverside Resort, according to the [Mohave Valley Daily News](https://www.mohavedailynews.com/news/riverside-resort-don-laughlin-died-of-natural-causes-surrounded-by-family/article_9e4d0658-71ef-11ee-a300-abdc8103eb1b.html) and the [Las Vegas Review-Journal](https://www.reviewjournal.com/business/casinos-gaming/don-laughlin-dies-casino-operator-namesake-of-nevada-town-dies-at-92-2926171/). ## What They're Saying > "There's a new king in town." > — James Jacobs, Bullhead City local **Do you know the story, or have your own take on who wears the crown?** Send us a tip.

Bullhead City says it is drafting a data center ordinance. **BULLHEAD CITY, Ariz.** — Arizona Electric Power Cooperative (AEPCO) and Mohave Electric Cooperative (MEC) have jointly asked the Arizona Corporation Commission (ACC) to approve an electric energy services agreement with a data center developer, Project Burro LLC, the Mohave Valley Daily News reported. According to the report, Project Burro's principals are CleanSpark Inc., a publicly traded data center developer based in Henderson, Nev., and its subsidiary CSDC Finance II LLC. The filing follows an ACC process designed to shield existing ratepayers from the cost of new infrastructure built for large-load customers. MEC has said it has no land-use or development approval authority over whether a data center is built in its service area, and that it has an obligation to offer service within its certificated territory. Bullhead City said in an Oct. 7 statement from City Manager Toby Cotter that it is working with the city attorney to develop a comprehensive data center ordinance. The city said the ACC review is separate from its own land-use authority, and that any project would need Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council review. Topics the ordinance would cover include infrastructure capacity, water and power, setbacks, noise limits, emergency response plans and neighborhood protections. The ACC process is public. Residents can follow the application through the commission and watch for Bullhead City Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council agendas.
