Former Scottsdale City Councilman and longtime community advocate Bob Littlefield, in late January, filed paperwork at City Hall, 3939 N. Drinkwater Blvd., declaring his campaign for the post of mayor.
Mr. Littlefield served three consecutive terms aboard Scottsdale City Council and is married to Kathy Littlefield, a current member of the local governing board.
“In the last three years the voters of Scottsdale have organized to protect the Preserve from commercial development, elected citizen-friendly City Council candidates by unprecedented margins and fought toxic overdevelopment in downtown,” he said in his campaign announcement.
“I am proud to have been a part of those efforts. All this activism makes it clear Scottsdale citizens want a change from the policy of toxic overdevelopment pursued by our current City Council majority, including by the two currently announced candidates for mayor.”
Mr. Littlefield contends he is running as a resident-friendly alternative to other candidates seeking the same seat at Scottsdale City Council.
“I am running to give voters a resident-friendly alternative for Mayor who will lead Scottsdale to grow and evolve in a way that preserves our special character and high quality of life,” he said.
