Chicane, meandering, roundabout and right-of-way are all words that could describe a million-dollar effort to beautify a portion of Doubletree Ranch Road in the Town of Paradise Valley.
But “chagrin,” may be the best adjective to describe the community interpretation of the roadway beautification project that was originally meant to stretch from Invergordon to Scottsdale roads.
Over the course of several months, Paradise Valley residents have voiced numerous concerns around the purpose of the $3 million project calling in to question the municipal motivation to repair a road with nearly seven years of life left in the concrete.
