The owner of two parcels at 11270 N. 140th Street is asking the Scottsdale Planning Commission to abandon approximately 65,330 square feet of fee-simple right-of-way surrounding the site, according to case 7-AB-2025 on the commission's August 12, 2026 regular agenda.
The request covers three strips: 30 feet along the northern boundary, which follows the old E. Via Linda alignment; 70 feet along the eastern boundary at N. 140th Street; and 25 feet along the southern boundary at the E. Gary/Shangri La Road alignment. The two underlying parcels are identified as 217-30-006L and 217-30-006M, both carrying a Single-family Residential District, Environmentally Sensitive Lands (R1-43/ESL) zoning designation.
As a condition of the abandonment, the owner is required to dedicate certain property interests back to the city. The abandonment is linked to the Carr Residence Minor Subdivision, case 13-MD-2025, which appears as a separate item on the same agenda.
The agenda does not include a staff recommendation in the extracted item text. Staff contact for the case is Jesus Murillo, reachable at 480-312-7849; the applicant contact is Zach Hill at 480-207-2669.
The Planning Commission is scheduled to hear the item at its regular meeting on August 12, 2026.
