🚨 Before brush and bulk collection, bag and securely tie grass, leaves, palm tree skins, bark and other loose yard debris. Proper prep helps crews collect safely and efficiently.
👉 ScottsdaleAZ.gov — search “Brush and Bulk”

Supporting the men and women who serve Scottsdale is one of the greatest privileges of being your mayor.
Thank you to our police officers and first responders for your unwavering commitment to protecting our community each and every day.

Scottsdale’s Western heritage is one of the things that makes our city so special, and this summer, families have even more opportunities to experience it firsthand.
Western Spirit: Scottsdale's Museum of the West has launched an exciting lineup of summer programs featuring hands-on activities, gallery experiences, educational opportunities, and family-friendly events designed to bring the history, art, and culture of the American West to life. It's another great way to stay cool while exploring one of Scottsdale’s premier cultural destinations.
I encourage residents and visitors alike to take advantage of these unique summer offerings and continue discovering what makes Scottsdale such a vibrant place to live, work, and visit.

Scottsdale's story is written in our neighborhoods, parks and public art. 🐎
I enjoyed Bridget Dowd's @kjzzphoenix article on how the horse sculptures near McCormick Ranch celebrate Scottsdale's equestrian heritage while serving an important role in our city's flood control system.
It's one of many ways Scottsdale combines beauty and creativity with practical design and thoughtful planning.

“Water impacts every aspect of life in Arizona, from our economy and neighborhoods to our ability to continue thriving as a community. Bringing residents together to hear from experts, ask questions and better understand the issues helps ensure Scottsdale remains informed and prepared for whatever challenges and opportunities lie ahead.”
--- Lisa Borowsky | Mayor of @scottsdaleazgov
#Scottsdale residents packed the Granite Reef Senior Center auditorium last week to attend our Town Hall, bringing together residents, experts and community leaders for an informative discussion about water issues facing Arizona and the broader Southwest.
The discussion featured insights from Rhett Larson, professor of water law at @ASU and general counsel for the #Arizona Municipal Water Users Association. Also, during the event was a moderated Q&A by the host of the Town Hall: @KTAR923 Radio Host @broomheadKTAR.
