Scottsdale Post Office Site Sparks Local Clash Over Location
Local business leader Don Chambers rejects a Washington spokesman’s claim that Scottsdale’s new post office site has backing from the area business community. He says businessmen oppose the location north of Osborn Road on Scottsdale Road citing traffic and lack of consultation. The site, optioned for 276000, is partly owned by William Mahoney Jr. and Chanen interests, with only an option to buy at 117000. The post office notes routine site selection and limited postmaster consultation.
