The Coyotes will keep a close eye on the upcoming Glendale elections, starting with Tuesday’s recall election for councilmember Gary Sherwood, who faces a major challenge from Ray Malnar in the Sahuaro District.
Unless there is a significant change in that city’s leadership at next year’s Mayoral and city council elections, however, the Coyotes are finished dealing with Glendale. In all probability, they are finished anyway after the city voided their 15-year arena lease and management agreement in June, and then informed the Coyotes they would be seeking their own arena manager by beginning an RFP process.
