    Bullhead City's Planning and Zoning Division administers the General Plan and the city's zoning codes. For a home appraisal, the part that matters most is the zoning information it provides, including setbacks and legal descriptions.

    What the division covers

    The division reviews rezoning, subdivision and variance requests, processes conditional use permits and issues sign permits. It also provides zoning information. Bullhead City Planning and Zoning

    Why the legal description matters

    A legal description identifies the parcel exactly, which helps confirm that a record matches the property being appraised. Setbacks show how far a building must sit from its property lines under city zoning. Bring the legal description along with the parcel number. A survey or plat, if you have one, helps too.

    When an addition or a proposed use is part of the request

    If an addition or another proposed use is part of your request, bring the city records you have for it. Those records help define the assignment. They don't give us the value on their own.
