The Arizona Cardinals stadium, if built on the proposed Tempe site, would pose a hazard to aviation operations at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, the Federal Aviation Administration concluded Saturday.
Tempe Mayor Neil Giuliano said he was disappointed, but not surprised, by the FAA's long-awaited decision.
There are a few sites Tempe is considering for selection by the Nov. 23 deadline, Giuliano said.
Ted Ferris, president and CEO of the state Tourism and Sports Authority, said he expects several new sites to surface by next week. So far, 29 groups have requested information on the site selection process.
The TSA plans to have the new site chosen by Dec. 21.
