Background

The city of Scottsdale has a long history of using area-based plans to provide policy and program direction for certain areas of the city. Consequently, Character Area Plans are components of the General Plan that focus on long range, area-related goals and policies. To avoid repetition, Character Area Plans supplement the city-wide goals and policies provided by the General Plan.

The Scottsdale General Plan 2035 designated twenty-four (24) areas within the city intended to have specific Character Area Plans; however, as of today, seven (7) character areas have been adopted -- Cactus Corridor (1992), Shea Area (1993), Desert Foothills (1999), Dynamite Foothills (2000), Greater Airpark (2010), Southern Scottsdale (2010), and Old Town (2018).
