With a handful of development projects happening within a stone’s throw of each other — and the municipal border of Scottsdale — the Town of Paradise Valley is finding itself in a bit of a pickle.
On Thursday, Dec. 6, Paradise Valley Town Council discussed improvements to the median that runs east-west along Lincoln Drive from the town’s border near Scottsdale Road to Mockingbird Lane.
The area coined by town officials as the South Lincoln Development Area includes Lincoln Medical Plaza and SmokeTree Resort, both of which are in the midst of going through a special use permit process to redevelop their properties. Additionally, the Ritz-Carlton Paradise Valley community — across the street — has an agreement with the town that road improvements will be taken care of by the municipality.
