Development of 3200 North, a mixed-use project within the Historic Old Town District, will move forward — avoiding a potential delay in the process.
The Scottsdale City Council in its Dec. 7 meeting unanimously approved the development plan and standards, but not before reviewing an acceptable approach for what constitutes “mixed use.”
Mayor David Ortega initially said he couldn’t support the project in its form that called for 4,000 square feet of commercial zoning in the mostly residential project anchored by — at first — a 135-unit affordable housing apartment complex. He called the proportion of commercial zoning on site “inadequate in terms of a mixed use.”
