Worth noting an announcement is expected within the next 3ish weeks about the selection of a site in NE Phoenix, adjacent to Scottsdale:

Coyotes president and CEO Xavier Gutierrez told PHNX Sports on Tuesday that the team expects to announce its chosen arena site by the end of the calendar year, or shortly thereafter.

While much speculation has centered on the northwest Mesa site on which the team executed a letter of intent in August, multiple sources familiar with the process told PHNX that the team is zeroing in on a parcel of land in northeast Phoenix, adjacent to Scottsdale.

Earlier in the process, Gutierrez made it clear that Phoenix was one of the municipalities that the Coyotes would consider, provided the site was located in the eastern portion of the city, closer to the majority of the team’s season-ticket holder base, and closer to the wealth and corporate bases of the city, along the 101 corridor that extends from north Phoenix and Scottsdale down through Tempe and Chandler.
So, we'll see. Unlike the LOI with Mesa, this is expected to be a concrete selection of what will be the site. Morgan has reported that they've been keen on identifying only land that would not require plebiscites to develop
