Scottsdale Mayor David Ortega expresses strong opposition to a proposed development that would relocate the Arizona Coyotes to a plot of land near Loop 101 and Scottsdale Road.
PHOENIX — Scottsdale Mayor David Ortega says he is strongly against a proposed development that would move the Arizona Coyotes to a plot of land near Loop 101 and Scottsdale Road, bordering the city.
The team's plan for the land includes an arena, a practice facility, a movie theater, restaurants, and housing. It's expected to include 400,000 square feet of retail space and around 500,000 square feet of office space. The Coyotes, however, say this project would cost $3 billion and generate $10 billion in"economic activity" along with 10,000 jobs for Maricopa County.
The prospect of a rookie developer attempting to buy Arizona State Trust Land with absolutely no infrastructure on the Phoenix side of the 101/Scottsdale Road intersection at the doorstep of Scottsdale is not feasible, or welcome.
