Scottsdale City Council has approved a rezoning request making way for a 31-lot, single-family subdivision on about 40 acres of land on the southwest corner of 128th Street and Alameda Road.
The local governing board at its Sept. 12 meeting unanimously approved the rezoning request on behalf Hines, an international real estate firm with visions of Asteria Highlands in north Scottsdale.
Hines has gained entitlements on two portions of the property allowing the land to move from two zoning stipulations to one providing for a density increase from 13 to 31 lots, according to a Sept. 12 Scottsdale city staff report.
