The La Paz County Comprehensive Plan is the first overall plan for development countywide. Due to the passage of new state requirements and a desire to plan for the future, the La Paz County Board of Supervisors contracted with Partners for Strategic Action, Inc. to develop the county’s first comprehensive plan. The consulting team was directed to solicit broad community participation, study the county planning area, and develop a plan that would be an easy-to-understand policy document that will guide La Paz County’s development in the future.
Five jurisdictions within Mohave County, Arizona participated in this planning effort, recognizing the consequences of disasters and the need to reduce the impacts of natural and human-caused hazards. This plan identifies hazard mitigation measures intended to eliminate or reduce the effects of future disasters throughout the county.
The Mohave County General Plan document is intended to bring about coordinated physical development in accordance with the present and future needs of the County.
