Protest Group Forms Over Plan for 600 Town Houses
A three homeowner committee in the 8400 block of San Miguel Ave leads residents to block John Hall from building 600 town house units on a 40 acre Rose Lane and Granite Reef Rd site. Mack McDurmon 8456 E San Miguel heads the effort along with Walter Siders 8502 E Laredo Lane and Don McBiles 8444 E San Miguel. Scottsdale attorney Turner 44 E Indian School Rd is reviewing legal options after the city council granted a zone change March 3 from single to multiple family residential. The planning director and planning commission opposed the change. The group says the project will overpopulate the area and hurt private home sales.
