Scottsdale Mayor Lisa Borowsky wants to know if it’s time to create a task force to protect Old Town’s interests at city hall.
Borowsky has called a special meeting of the city council for 5 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 7, to discuss the issue.
“The city council is considering the formation of a Downtown Task Force to evaluate and refine the Downtown Character Area Plan and current marketing efforts,” Borowsky wrote in an undated letter addressed to the Old Town business community. “If you are passionate about shaping the future of downtown Scottsdale, I encourage you to attend the summit, and email the city council if you have a desire to serve on the task force.”
