Paradise Valley DoubleTree Resort Minor SUP Amendment
Description
Adds an outdoor event lawn, basement meeting rooms, new signs and landscaping, and removes outdated 1980s stipulations including the 850-person local function cap. Commissioners flagged tents, wall lighting and a white entry wall for follow-up.
Impact summary
Studies show compliance with noise, lighting, and parking standards, but residents testified to real-world noise, overflow parking, and light spillover; the added stipulations aim to give neighbors a direct line to resort management.
