> > Whats interesting is their policy does NOT conform to other Maricopa > county parks!!How can it be different? Easily, because the Preserve is not a Maricopa County Park. The land is owned by the City of Scottsdale, under a couple of municipal bond provisions which were passed in the 90's. But the Preserve's advocate and private funding channel is the McDowell Sonoran Land Trust (MSLT) (http://www.mslt.org/), which acts as a "liaison" between the City Council and the Preserve Commission, appointed by the City Council. Chair of the MSLT? The aforementioned, uni-nomenclatured Carla.
