The entire cost to switch improvements to the intersection at Scottsdale Road and Dynamite Boulevard from a roundabout to a signalized intersection is still not known more than seven months after the Scottsdale City Council voted 4-3 to make the change.
The city forfeited a $29.29 million federal grant for a larger road improvement project that included the intersection improvements when the switch to a signalized intersection was made, but the Maricopa Association of Governments ultimately voted on Nov. 3 to make up that money with regional Proposition 400 sales tax funding with no penalties for the change.
But that’s not the full story.
