Foreclosure Looms on Half-Completed Sports Arena

BY KAREN GOVEIA

editor@valleyvibenews.com

W

hen construction began in June 2019 on Legacy Sports Arena and an adjacent hotel, local entrepreneur Rob Eaton never would have imagined that a little more than two years later the project would remain half complete with the foreclosure clock ticking on his dream for a bustling sports complex in the far North Valley.

Eaton purchased 40 acres of land in 2018, dedicating 20 acres for the development of the arena and hotel and the other half of the land earmarked for resale.

Multifamily developer Marquis Development is currently in escrow to purchase the remaining 20 acres for the development of approximately 300 apartment units, pending rezoning approval by the City of Phoenix. The project passed its first hurdle when the Phoenix North Gateway city advisory committee unanimously approved the rezoning request on Aug. 12.

But even if the sale of the 20 acres goes through, Eaton told Valley Vibe he still wouldn’t have enough funding to pull Legacy out of foreclosure.

Prior to the pandemic, construction on both the arena and hotel was steadily progressing. It was at the 10-month mark in April 2020 when the pandemic brought work on the project to a sudden halt. And as the sports and leisure industry became severely impacted by government-imposed lockdowns, continued funding for the project became more difficult to secure, according to Eaton.

The Community Wants This

After hearing about the financial struggle to move the project forward, Sonoran Foothills residents Gary and Maria Roth circulated a petition that garnered more than 2,300 signatures of neighbors in support of the project, and an interest list of roughly 7,000 users of the facility and its amenities.

“Both of our sons play sports and our oldest plays hockey. This venue was going to be an amazing indoor sports arena that would be such an outlet for kids and families and all the leagues that could play at that arena,” Gary told Valley Vibe.

“I would hate for that land to be developed into something else like more high-density housing because we have enough congestion up here already,” he added.

What’s Next Despite halfcompleted shells on the arena and hotel in an area of high residential and commercial growth, including construction already underway on Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company’s $12 billion silicon chip factory, a foreclosure notice on Legacy Sports Arena and the hotel was filed with Maricopa County July 6.

Eaton said he needs $12 million in funding to pull the project out of foreclosure before Oct. 13, when it is scheduled to go to auction.

In the meantime, ongoing discussions with lenders and investors continue, and Eaton said he remains hopeful in his search for additional funding to revive the project.

“I am surprised with the TSMC plant construction going on across the road that we still have been unable to secure funding for this world class sports venue,” he said.

“My hope and prayer is we can find the funding at this final hour because if it goes [to foreclosure] I will have no control over what it becomes.”

Potential investors and lenders can reach Eaton at 480-625-8104.

NAR predicts a continued increase in inventory nationally, which will “lessen the intensity of multiple offers,” said Lawrence Yun, NAR’s chief economist, in a report.

| PET TALK

A Wellness Fair and Farewell to ‘Toby the Clinic Kitty’

BY CHERYL RAHAL, D.V.M.

(With sidenotes from Toby the clinic kitty)

V

eterinarians have so much we like to educate our clients about, but sometimes we just don’t have enough time to review it all in one visit.

Here at The Pet Wellness Center we like to host wellness fairs open to the public. Wellness, or preventative medicine, can look different for each individual pet based on breed, personality and lifestyle.

On Saturday, Oct. 2 we will host our next community wellness fair. Visitors can meet our newest doctor, Dr. Carly Hohorst who will explain how acupuncture can help your pet. Dr. Yan Lee will discuss wellness in reptiles and will likely have little critter friends assist her. We will also have some amazing raffle give-a-ways.

Hospital tours will show you what we do behind the scenes and the importance of wellness and prevention.

Why Prevention is Key The wellness exam is a noseto-tail exam checking your pet’s eyes, ears, teeth, heart, lungs, abdomen, skin, fur and feet. With the exam comes lots of questions from the veterinarian and staff, allowing them to determine lifestyle and reveal some of the behaviors that might be associated with specific diseases or risks of disease. This check should be done annually in young, healthy pets and every six months in senior pets, or more often for pets with a chronic health condition. This might seem like a lot, but every year of a pet’s life ages is equivalent to about seven years for humans. Can you imagine only seeing a doctor every seven years? (If you just said yes, you better get scheduled with your own doc!)

A wellness exam is the time the doctor and staff have to educate you on endemic diseases in our area, such as periodontal disease, Heartworm disease, Ehrlichiosis or Tick Fever, and Coccidiomycosis or Valley Fever, discussing risks, testing and providing preventatives.

Understanding how your pet could get these diseases is the first step of prevention.

This is also a good time to discuss whether your pet needs

Toby’s Take W

ell folks, they say if you put your nose to the grindstone and work hard, the Toby the rewards are clinic kitty bountiful and retirement could come early. As much as I love my job at The Pet Wellness Center, retirement is here! I’m leaving assured they will do just fine without my supervision, and I’m looking forward to relaxation at the foot of Dr. Rahal’s bed. I hope to see you at the wellness fair, which is really my retirement party.

Shhh! Don’t tell Dr. Rahal, but the cat’s out of the bag about the surprise party.

Wellness Fair & Toby’s Retirement Party

9 a.m.–1 p.m., Saturday, Oct. 2 lab work, and how that might help manage your pet’s health in the future. Having normal findings on lab work is a great thing and finding disease early by watching year-to-year trends is equally as rewarding.

Dr. Cheryl Rahal is a doctor of veterinary medicine at The Pet Wellness Center in North Phoenix.

Her sidekick, Toby, spends his days alongside her at the clinic.
