South Scottsdale Seniors Shut Out

In yet another sign that the squeeze is on south Scottsdale senior citizens, the much-hyped McDowell Village Senior Apartments are pricing their expected residents out of the market. Local seniors simply cannot afford the high rents. In fairness, the exorbitant prices are partially due to the maintenance and dining amenities, yet many elderly do not need these services. A compromise should be sought to lower the rents, allow some flexibility in leasing plans and accommodate south Scottsdale residents in their golden years.

As a south Scottsdale resident I'm not surprised by this act of stupidity on the part of our mayor and city council who are more interested in developer deals than they are of citizens needs. We were told this housing would be helpful for our senior community. Famous last words!
