A three-story mixed use development with 196 apartments and 79,200 feet of existing commercial space near the intersection of Shea Boulevard and 70th Street took a step forward toward becoming a reality April 24.
The Scottsdale Planning Commission voted 6-1 to recommend to the city council approval of the project known as Cosanti Commons.
Commissioner George Ertel said the city has enough water to support the project. He also said the project would only affect traffic minimally and the development would help revitalize that area of town.
