City officials are starting the municipal process for a General Plan election update in November 2021, which will mark nearly 20 years since an encompassing plan for Scottsdale has been approved by voters.
On Nov. 12, Scottsdale City Council unanimously approved a resolution adopting a non-major amendment to the city’s General Plan 2001 to add state-statute-required content for continued compliance with Arizona Revised Statues.
The action is Phase 1 of a two-phased General Plan update process. The second phase will begin in 2020 with a complete plan update via a citizen advisory committee, a city staff report states. The target election date for Phase 2 voter ratification of an updated plan is November 2021.
