The city is taking the first steps in a plan to create short-term, emergency housing for residents looking to get back on their feet in south Scottsdale.
Scottsdale held an open house March 27 to consider purchasing a two story 6-plex at 7602 E. Polk Street, near the intersection East McKellips and North Miller roads.
The city has not yet entered into negotiations with the property owner, but is holding an open house to gauge public opinion about the move, according to Scottsdale Human Services Director Greg Bestgen.
