KTAR’s Mike Broomhead hosts May 27 Granite Reef Town Hall as master of ceremonies
Staff Writer | Mayor of Scottsdale
Scottsdale Mayor Lisa Borowsky is hosting her next town hall from 5:30 to 7 p.m. Wednesday, May 27, at the Granite Reef Senior Center, 1700 N. Granite Reef Road.
Mayor Borowsky is offering residents the opportunity to hear directly from a leading water law expert as potential cuts to the Central Arizona Project — a significant provider of the municipal water supply from the Colorado River — raise critical questions about Scottsdale’s long-term water future.
Mayor Borowsky represents the community of Scottsdale as a member of the Arizona Municipal Water Users Association Board of Directors (AMWUA) and serves as a member of the Coalition for Protecting Arizona’s Lifeline, which is a nonpartisan alliance of Arizona leaders focused on educating, advocating and elevating the importance of long-term water security.
The town hall will be emceed by KTAR Radio Host Mike Broomhead and will feature a presentation by Rhett Larson, who serves as the Richard Morrison Professor of Water Law at the Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law at Arizona State University.
Mr. Larson also serves as general counsel for AMWUA and will provide an in-depth overview of the Colorado River and the potential impacts of looming cuts to the CAP’s allocation in Scottsdale.
Residents attending the event will have the opportunity to learn about water challenges facing Scottsdale, ask questions and share feedback directly with Mayor Lisa Borowsky in an open, community-focused setting.

“Water is one of the most important issues facing our city and our region,” Mayor Borowsky said. “This town hall is an opportunity for residents to hear directly from an expert, ask questions and engage in a meaningful conversation about how we plan for Scottsdale’s long-term water future.”
The Granite Reef Senior Center serves as a hub for civic engagement and community programming, providing an accessible setting for residents to gather and participate in city discussions.
All Scottsdale residents are invited to attend. Seating may be limited, and guests are encouraged to arrive early. The town hall is part of Mayor Borowsky’s ongoing effort to connect with residents on key issues impacting the community.
