Russ--I don't think there is any way of doing this out of the box w/Categories. You definitely can restrict by role who can add content to which part of the site tree. So if you used navigation nodes instead of categories for you content organization, this would be doable, but your would be restricted to tree types (dmHTML, et al).
Short of that you would have to right some custom code. Note that if you are planning to create a custom type and have to write that code anyway, you could create some new permissions (addToNY, addToScottsdale), and only expose those categories based on the permission that they user has. Probably a bit clunky, and definitely high-maintenance if you are dealing w/100s of categories and users. You would also probably lose the tree aspect of categories, but it may not be needed in this case. HTH, Scott Russ Johnson wrote: > I have default install of FC 3 that I am evaluating for a project.
