Searching for Gas in North Scottsdale
The lack of gas stations in Scottsdale has been a long-running joke around town. One of the first things I heard when I moved here was, "Don't run out of gas in Scottsdale." Gas stations in the southern part of town are now just as plentiful as they are anywhere in the Valley. However, the northern part of the city remains a dead zone for petroleum. Local homeowners simply do not want these businesses in their area due to the negative impacts (perceived or real) on the neighborhood, similar to many residents in the southern part of town opposed to nearby strip clubs that negatively impact their neighborhoods.Tags: Scottsdale News

I have lived in South Scottsdale for six years and there are less gas stations now than there were when I first moved here. I have never lived anywhere where more gas stations have close permanently than here in South Scottsdale.
Just noticed the new header on your blog -- it looks good! You ought to change the colors of your blog to match the header.

Thanks for your comments and for stopping by the site. I'd like to update the rest of the blog template...if you can help me out let me know. Thanks...
Courtland,
I am going to visit family for the holidays in San Diego. I'd be happy to help you when I get back, which should be before the end of the year. Drop me an e-mail from my profile above and remind me of this project.
