Scottsdale’s Parks & Preserve Sales Tax has already made an impact on the city.
Since the 0.15% sales tax dedicated exclusively to the improvement, maintenance and protection of Scottsdale’s parks system and the Scottsdale McDowell Sonoran Preserve took effect on July 1, 2025, Scottsdale Parks & Recreation has completed a wide range of projects across the city, according to a press release.
Crews have installed more than 240,000-square-feet of new sod, planted 93 new trees and added over 700 flats of plants, as well as completed more than $150,000 in storm damage repairs. Ballfields and park facilities across the city has also been updated.
