Scottsdale is celebrated for its livability, world-class amenities, and stunning desert landscapes—a city where innovation and quality of life go hand in hand. From the Indian Bend Wash Greenbelt to cutting-edge water management systems, Scottsdale has a proud history of tackling challenges with bold, forward-thinking solutions.

Now, we must ensure that this legacy continues. This Tuesday, January 14, at 5:30 PM, the City Council will vote on whether to repeal the Community Sustainability Plan—a comprehensive, non-mandatory guide created with three years of community input to address critical issues like water conservation, extreme heat, air quality, and sustainable transportation.

The plan doesn’t just benefit our environment—it improves healthier streets for pedestrians and cyclists, cooler neighborhoods with tree canopy and shade, and better air quality for everyone. Repealing it would waste taxpayer dollars and undermine years of effort to build a vibrant, resilient future for all Scottsdale residents and visitors.

Subject: Please Vote to Keep the Community Sustainability Plan Dear Scottsdale City Council, I urge you to vote against repealing the Community Sustainability Plan at the January 14 meeting. This plan reflects years of community input and supports Scottsdale’s long-term health, safety, and economic vitality. The plan addresses issues that matter to all of us:
  • Cleaner air to improve public health.
  • Heat mitigation through tree planting and shade solutions.
  • Safer streets for all modes of transportation, including cyclists and pedestrians.
Repealing the plan would waste years of effort and taxpayer dollars while delaying action on urgent challenges like water conservation, extreme heat, and air quality. Please protect Scottsdale’s future by voting to uphold this vital roadmap for sustainability. Sincerely, [Your Name]
