The mayor of Scottsdale changed his mind about asking for City Council to initiate a formal review into a recent development review board decision, citing minor changes made by the applicant prior to the request.
A June 21 Scottsdale City Council agenda included a request from Mayor David Ortega for the council to consider overturning a recent approval by the DRB for a new mixed-use development project in the Old Town Scottsdale area called The Goldwater.
Ortega cited a lack of covered walkways, shading requirements and a cantilevering feature on top of a 70-foot building as reasons he sought to overturn the DRB’s 6-1 June 2 vote.
