Cannabis dispensaries are legal and operating in Mohave County, licensed by the Arizona Department of Health Services. Locations run in Lake Havasu City, Bullhead City, and Kingman, subject to statewide license caps and local zoning.
Under the Smart and Safe Arizona Act (A.R.S. § 36-2850 et seq.), the Arizona Department of Health Services licenses recreational marijuana establishments, and licensed dispensaries operate in Mohave County, including in Lake Havasu City, Bullhead City, and Kingman. The number of retail licenses is capped statewide and tied largely to prior medical dispensary registrations, so new locations are limited. Cities and the county apply zoning to where a dispensary may locate, typically commercial or industrial districts with buffers from schools and residential areas, but operate within the state licensing framework. Dispensaries serve adults 21 and over with photo ID.
Operating a dispensary without an ADHS license is a criminal offense, not a zoning matter. A licensed dispensary that violates local zoning conditions faces municipal or county code enforcement.
