Paradise Valley council approves SUP for Andaz resort

By Terrance Thornton | Digital Free Press

Paradise Valley Town Council — with a vote of 5-0 — Thursday, May 25, approved an intermediate amendment to an existing special use permit allowing for 10 luxury single-story guest units from 2,853- to 5,410-square-feet in size with private spas on a 5-acre plot of land found along Quail Run Road.

That 5-acre plot of land is governed by the Town of Paradise Valley, is adjacent to the Andaz Scottsdale Resort & Bungalows and is owned by Gary Stougaard, principal of PV Hotel Venture SPE LLC.

Paradise Valley Councilwoman Ellen Andeen and Julie Pace were not present for the vote but did speak to approval earlier that afternoon during a work study discussion. 

The zoning in the Town of Paradise Valley is relatively simple as the majority of the dirt is zoned residential meanwhile a handful of commercial properties exist — resorts, houses of worship and educational entities — and are regulated through what locals call “the Special Use Permit.”

Town officials report the 5-acre plot of land in question carries a residential zoning component found part of the Andaz Scottsdale Resort campus, which is 22 acres and accessible from Scottsdale Road.

In general terms noise mitigation efforts are spelled out in entitlement stipulations, an 8-foot wall will be erected to shield neighboring residents from existing noise issues and the orientation of each casita is in way to promote privacy, town officials say.

“Thank you to everyone,” said Mr. Stougaard at last night’s public hearing. “There was a tremendous amount of work after the 27th as you see here. I think we are at a point where everyone understands what I want to do.”
