Scottsdale OKs McDowell Mountain hillside zoning district
The Scottsdale City Council unanimously adopted the McDowell Mountain hillside zoning district despite threats of a lawsuit from Kemper Marley Sr. and protests by other property owners. The plan divides 15 000 acres for compatible development and 11 000 acres as undevelopable conservation land with transferable development credits shifting building to foothills. Marley, not present, and Powers argued the measure takes land without compensation while supporters see it as a long needed preservation step.
