Edit: Funny, just as I post this, there was an Executive Session on the 23rd. A Downtown Arena Update was scheduled as part of the meeting. Did anyone happen to attend?

Just watched it on Youtube; didn't see anything regarding the arenas unfortunately. Only real item was a long presentation about current/future Sky Harbor land use. It sounds like they're looking to acquire more land to the North and West of the airport to expand/enhance support services and activate many of the unused dirt and parking lots.
I'm looking forward to the Nov.6th Planning and Economic Development Subcommittee meeting - looks like there's going to be a decision on whether to allow the owner of the lot north-adjacent to the Artisan Lofts (Central/Wiletta) to build taller than 75 feet. We will see something happening there soon and this decision will determine whether they get to build to 180 feet as requested or just to the existing 75. The neighborhood to the West opposes the change, but Nowakowski encouraged a renewed attempt at compromise so we'll see what happens.
