Scottsdale City Council approves Heights zoning change to General Plan
Change is coming to north Scottsdale after city council decided to forgo the current commercial zoning of a site at 7225 E. Dove Valley Road, making way for a new urban neighborhood.
In a 5–2 decision, council approved a non-major General Plan Amendment to change 14 of the 15.5-acre site from commercial to urban neighborhood at its Tuesday, March 21 meeting.
Scottsdale zoning attorney John Berry presented on behalf of owner Michael Lieb for the project and said the remaining 1.5 acres on the south end of the site would be developed into a Dick Van Dyke Studio commemorative path, honoring the former Carefree Studios.
