Andaz Scottsdale Resort & Bungalows looks to expand its property as Paradise Valley’s planning commission considers the permits to allow construction.
The resort seeks to develop a 5-acre lot at 6041 Quail Run Road to create 10 additional, one-story guest units with pools, a service building and walls for the perimeter, according to a town staff report.
This requires Andaz request a special-use permit amendment and rezoning from the town to proceed. On Oct. 13, council ordered the commission to review the permit, focusing on any visible, audible and operational effects of the project.
During its Nov. 15 meeting, the town’s planning commission reviewed the resort’s expansion proposal and the results of its studies on those areas. George Burton, senior town planner, led the presentation to commissioners.
Burton said the meeting’s goal was to not only review but to receive commissioners’ feedback on the proposal, which covered the guest units, lighting, landscaping, noise and the dedication of a right of way at Quail Run Road.
