Prediction is what zoning is all about!

In an article entitled, "Lack of a crystal ball shouldn't keep us from moving forward" the zoning board of Kingman, Arizona is compared with those who make predictions with crystal balls...no wonder zoning boards in general botch things up. Perhaps some tarot card readings could assist the decision making powers of the city of Kingman?

Lack of a crystal ball shouldn't keep us from moving forward: "We owe it to ourselves and our future to keep moving forward. No one has a crystal ball that will predict the traffic on Kingman Crossing or who will actually shop there when we do get a mall. Prediction is what zoning is all about. You can re-route heavy truck traffic to a more accommodating exchange. You can have a mall that fits our themes. If you want opportunity, take it! "
