🌱 Proposal For New Medical Center + County Supreme Court Appointments

Hi all. I'm back in your inbox this morning with all the most important things happening in town these days.

But first, today's weather:

Sunny. High: 83 Low: 65.

📢 I’m looking for business owners and marketers in Scottsdale who want to build awareness, connect with customers and increase sales.

I have a limited number of sponsorships available to introduce our Scottsdale Daily readers to local businesses they need to know about. If that’s you, then I invite you to learn more and secure your spot now.

Here are the top three stories in Scottsdale today:

1. Banner Health is seeking approval from the City of Scottsdale for a new medical center at Scottsdale Airpark. The proposal would construct a 300-bed center at the northeast corner of Hayden Road and the Loop 101 in three distinct phases. The proposal exceeds the city's parking requirement. Banner Health will go before the Scottsdale Planning Commission on Dec. 14. (East Valley Tribune)
2. Arizona Governor Doug Ducey has appointed four individuals to the Maricopa County Superior Court. The appointments were to fill open positions that occurred due to resignations and retirements. According to the Governor's office, Jillian Francis, Charlene Jackson, James Knapp, and Sunita Krishna were appointed. (KTAR)
3. Heavy rains and winds damaged Maricopa County neighborhoods on Saturday. The thunderstorms grounded flights at Sky Harbor Airport and resulted in many flight delays. The Sheriff's department reports that 18 power poles were damaged during the Saturday storm. (AZ Family)
