Phoenix, Arizona Mormon Temple debate

The Phoenix Arizona Temple of the LDS Church was announced on May 24, 2008. Over the past 2 and a half years the church has has problems with the city and neighbors of the temple site. Concerns about the temple's flood lights and steeple height were and are some of the main issues. The church has had to re-design the floor plan and lower the height of the steeple.

The temple was originally made to be two stories in height. With the new re-design, the temple is now one story high, but made a little wider to accommodate the rooms. More parking spaces were added to ease the neighbors concern of heavy traffic in the area.

The church has done a lot to help out the community, and to be a good neighbor to the city of Phoenix, Arizona. The church has created a web site to better inform the neighbors of the temple. That site can be found at
