Transportation will get the lion's share of the bond money, which will be spent over the next decade. The city will spend $126 million to widen the city's northern arterial streets--beginning with Indian Bend, Scottsdale Road and Hayden Road--and to add sound walls and build a transit center.
More than $124 million will be spent on parks and libraries. The money will be used to build a recreation centers in north Scottsdale and renovate facilities in the southern part of the city.
Another $29 million will be used to build a crime lab and storage center that will give police space to process evidence and hold it. One bond that lost would have been used to build a nine-field sport complex. Bond proposals for a City Hall expansion and for low-income housing also failed.
