Cindy Hill (Arizona)
From Ballotpedia
Cindy Hill was a 2014 candidate for the Scottsdale, Arizona City Council.
Campaign themes
2014
On her campaign website, Hill highlighted the following issues:[1]
Urban development
- Excerpt: "Development that solely enriches the developer and negatively impacts the city's infrastructure, existing neighborhoods, businesses and public safety capabilities without a positive direct benefit to the citizens is a non-starter. Current Scottsdale development has begun to fill in and rezone properties near existing neighborhoods and small merchant businesses. Years ago our leadership supported and required high quality design and construction for all projects to be approved. Developers were encouraged to keep in close contact with the nearby neighborhood residents and to respect the impact the proposed project would have on their quality of life. We should expect and demand nothing less today."
Transportation
- Excerpt: "Whether you are a non-driver because of age restriction, no vehicle, or medical disabilities, there should be reliable options for transportation. Transportation is an issue throughout our city. Light rail is not affordable for Scottsdale right now and probably won't be for another 25 to 30 years. What we do now is critically important to our work force and tourism industry. There are good options we can employ now."
McDowell Corridor and Southern Gateway
- Excerpt: "The revitalization of the McDowell Corridor and our Southern Gateway (many visitors first impression of Scottsdale) is a major concern that has not received much more than lip service and photo ops from our City Council since 2003. It has created many worries about blighted neighborhoods, loss of businesses and services for residents of the original neighborhoods that Scottsdale has based our growth and reputation on. Years ago the city had small amount matching-dollars exterior improvement funds to assist small businesses in the Old Town and Downtown. We should be seeking to do the same for the McDowell Corridor."
