SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — Scottsdale Mayor David Ortega is telling the Arizona Coyotes that the team is not welcome to bring their proposed arena to the northern edge of Scottsdale.
The NHL team is eying a 95-acre parcel of state-owned land near Scottsdale Road and Loop 101 that sits within the Phoenix city limits. The minimum sale price for the land has been estimated to be $68.5 million.
Original reporting: https://www.12news.com/article/sports/nhl/coyotes/scottsdale-mayor-tells-arizona-coyotes-not-bring-arena-near-his-city/75-ff0b1d30-696e-4287-943d-c6cfd252313d
In an editorial released Monday, Ortega said the proposed arena is not “feasible” and should stay far away from Scottsdale because the mayor will not support the endeavor.
“As it stands today, the fantasy hockey project must move west, away from Scottsdale,” Ortega wrote.
The mayor highlights how there’s no infrastructure west of Scottsdale Road in this area so he’s demanding that any infrastructure must be pulled from Phoenix because Scottsdale has no available water assets to spare.

Arizona hates hockey as much as it hates public education. Games at Gila River were amazing. This is a sad state of affairs.
Good move them to Houston
They should move to Oakland, that city knows how to work with sports teams to get things done.
I’m pretty sure the Mullett Arena is sold out every game. The Major definitely doesn’t care for hockey.
Okay well it's in Phoenix lol
If anyone has input and influence on business decisions you are proposing and they throw in personal jabs doing it, just move on. That's it.
Markham, Kansas City, Orlando
If the city of Scottsdale wants to show up for the auction, they can. Nobody cares what the mayor cries about.
Funny this crap mayor has no problem approving apartment build after apartment build right on Scottsdale road from Kirkland up to Mayo
I missed something… How does the Mayor of Scottsdale have a say in what goes on in the city limits of Phoenix? It sounds to me like there's something going on behind the scenes.
Portland nhl
Sounds to me like the Scottsdale Mayor has a NIMBY problem. But also with a project this size there should be plans for public transit and as far as infrastructure, why is solar on the roof seemingly not be considered and they could be talking about storing energy in batteries below the stadium or something.
What do people in Scottsdale do best? FUSS. IF THEY'RE NOT BITCHING: THEY'RE NOT HAPPY! I'm pretty sure the Mayor won't be fussing when he starts receiving the tax dollars for hotel and Resturant, not to mention all those RETAIL MONSTERS and everything they would gain! Here ya go again. Shortsided thought again. HE WANTS ALL THE BENIFITS, Yet is putting roadblocks in the way! Hey Mr. Mayor, sit back and roll in the dough.
Coyotes are toast. Get the butter.
Putting up statements like that from a pro team to municipalities is what the oil companies presented,
I don’t see the point of playing here if it is also far from the city center. It’s gonna be the same as Glendale if this even goes through.
Just relocate the team. Quebec could take them immediately and have been waiting for years to get their team back. Yeah I know there Canadian and in the east so what they can award two expansion teams to Houston or SLC to make it even again
The mayor of Scottsdale publicly in disagreement with this project may be real red flags. He mentioned "fantasy", amateurs, and it should be located more west. We heard it was jealousy not getting it done back then but looks this would bring more problems down the road to everyone. I'm not even sure we can trust Meruelo in this because the best proposition was to stay in Glendale and they whine and not paying dues to get kicked out.
Scottsdale Mayor is a B!@%! He's just pissed they aren't gonna use city funds to make money off of the arena and own it. Plus, the mayors in AZ are just figure heads and have no real power. It's the council who has the power.
