Here is a copy of the proposed Grand Canyon Escalade project, which seeks the Navajo Nation Council’s approval.

The Confluence Partners LLC, a Scottsdale-based group, want to develop Grand Canyon East rim.

The proposed bill was released by executive officials two days after prominent Confluence Partner Albert Hale was arrested on suspicion of DUI in late November.

The Confluence Partners include Arizona Lawmaker Hale, former Apache County Superior Court Judge Michael Nelson and political consultant R. Lamar Whitmer. The Scottsdale-based group wants to develop Grand Canyon East rim.

Navajo Nation Department of Justice reportedly is reviewing the bill,  according to tribal officials.

Navajo Nation Legislative officials said they have not received the proposed bill.

Opponents of the project have turned over 2,935 signatures to Navajo lawmakers protesting the project.  About  30 names of grazing permit holders and land users was submitted to the legislative office.
