Merchants protest Scottsdale Road plan changes
City Manager Franklin D Aleshire told Scottsdale Associated Merchants that most issues arise from a lack of easements as the revised road project includes less parking landscaping and sidewalks. SAM president Donald Perlman said the group will keep options open and may pursue legal action if needed. The change stems from federal lane width requirements increasing costs and reducing spaces, with about 400000 of the 1000000 project cost funded by the federal government.
