While there are numerous parks and sports fields across the city, last year there were nearly 50 requests for sports facilities Scottsdale’s parks and recreation department couldn’t accommodate.
Now the city is hoping $40 million of voter-approved funds on a field and park complex in northern Scottsdale near Bell Road and 94th Street will help it earn a bit more money in facility rentals and provide a place for a burgeoning number of requests for places for teams and leagues to practice and play.
City officials say in 2019, there were 49 full facility event requests — for reservations of sports fields or courts — that went unfulfilled.
