Scottsdale annexes land to block commercial rezoning
Scottsdale moved to annex the lower one third of a county island surrounding McDonald Drive and the Arizona Canal, eliminating Maricopa County planning review of rezoning bids by Avis Read owner of Stable Art Gallery and Paradise Water Co. City officials say about 40 percent of assessed valuation signed annexation petitions, meeting the required threshold. The action blocks county jurisdiction and aims to thwart a commercial rezoning push linked to a legal publicity issue and potential injunctions.
