An Arizona lawmaker has withdrawn his complaint to have the state attorney general investigate the legality of the Tempe Entertainment District vote scheduled for May 16.

Rep. Steve Montenegro, whose district includes parts of Phoenix and Surprise, withdrew his complaint after being informed how the measure, which includes an arena for the Arizona Coyotes, made it to the ballot, according to a release.

On April 24, Montenegro filed a complaint with Attorney General Kris Mayes stating the “Arizona Constitution does not allow the city to directly refer measures to the ballot.”

In the release from Tempe Wins, the group supporting the three-ballot proposition, Montenegro “was unaware at the time of his complaint that the Coyotes/Bluebird themselves referred the measures to the ballot by collecting the necessary petition signatures and following the legal referendum process.

“Further, while the (Disposition and Development Agreement) included a negotiated term for the Coyotes/Bluebird to reimburse the city for the costs associated with the special election, the city has confirmed it will comply with Arizona state law and not seek private money for the administration of the election.”

Montenegro withdrew his complaint “promptly” after being informed of the process being followed, the release stated.
