Scottsdale Town Hall to address downtown future
The Business Journal of Phoenix - 12:40 PM MST Wednesday
The Scottsdale City Council is hoping to generate community discussion about the future of the city's downtown through a $30,000 contract with Arizona Town Hall.
The organization will assist in gathering input from city stakeholders including Scottsdale residents, investors and business owners, the council announced Wednesday.
Key to that effort will be a Scottsdale Town Hall Nov. 15, 16 and 20. About 100 participants will be selected to take part in the half-day discussions. A report from the event is due out by the end of November. Additional opportunities for community input will take place later in the process, including a city council work/study session in December or January.
Scottsdale has experienced unprecedented growth and investment in the past three years, which has sparked a significant change in the downtown culture, the council said, noting that efforts are under way to ensure the area's future is guided by community input and a partnership between the public and private sectors.
