The proposed Hampton Inn near the intersection of School House Road and Cave Creek Road was the subject of a special meeting of the Town Planning Committee on September 13. The hearing had been continued due to a number of questions including traffic, water, and drainage. The proposed hotel will have 115 rooms and 24 casitas. It will also have two swimming pools and a pad for a 4000 square foot restaurant.
A traffic study was presented at the meeting which showed no change to the level of service regarding the intersection of Cave Creek and School House Roads. However, the plan did not factor in the restaurant traffic and will have to be redone. Also new Town Engineer Hal Marron, found the wrong maps had been used for drainage. He was not able to attend the meeting but Town officials said he had walked the property with the developers and was confident the drainage could be handled properly.
