Today's Mesa City Council Study Session: Site 17

This morning at 07:30 am this long-vacant 30-acre urban scar redevelopment demolition wreck is in the sights at a study session. Site 17 is the largest empty tract of land here in 'The Old Donut-Hole', the result of bad urban planning and some real estate speculation 25 years ago that didn't quite work out according tom plans that cost the city $60,000,000 for nothing except for an eyesore and a black-eye.
The city demolished 60 homes on Site 17  in another one of those eminent domain fiascos like the empty ground on the NWC of Country Club/Main Street.
Apparently the long neglect and distress downtown might now be under reconsideration in The Ozone.
