City of Scottsdale City Hall

The Peak magazine covers government plans and activities in Scottsdale, AZ. Founded in the Pinnacle Peak area of north Scottsdale in 1983, The Peak focuses on subjects that relate to Scottsdale government and The Peak’s mission of helping to preserve and protect the quality of life and environment in the north Scottsdale Sonoran Desert, including Scottsdale’s Scenic Drive.

 

The Greater Pinnacle Peak Association (GPPA), which publishes The Peak, advocates for community service and members of its board have served on numerous  City of Scottsdale boards and commissions. Three past presidents of GPPA have been inducted into Scottsdale’s Hall of Fame and three past board members have served on the city council.

 

A nonprofit publication, The Peak is supported by individuals, businesses, and organizations that sponsor advertisements or articles to publicize their events and activities.
