Highlights

A property owner at 6235 E. Catesby Road in Paradise Valley is asking the town's Board of Adjustment to overturn a staff yard clarification, with a hearing and possible final vote scheduled for Wednesday, June 3, at 5:30 p.m. in Council Chambers at 6401 E. Lincoln Dr.

The case, designated BA-26-01, is listed under Public Hearings on the board's agenda, meaning the seven-member panel may take action at the session rather than deferring to a later date. The parcel carries APN 169-49-051.

The agenda packet includes a staff report, vicinity map, aerial photo, the original yard clarification, the applicant's narrative and supporting documents, notification materials, and subdivision plats for Quail Run Manor, Silver Sky, and Finisterre. At least one letter of opposition has been submitted and is included in the packet.

Chair Eric Leibsohn leads the board, joined by members Ken Barnes, Joseph Contadino, James Kuykendall, Hope Ozer, Bill Petsas, and Quinn Williams. The board may also convene an executive session during the meeting to receive legal advice from the town attorney on any agenda item, as authorized under A.R.S. §38-431.03.A.3.

What is a yard clarification appeal?

Paradise Valley staff issue yard clarifications to resolve ambiguity about how setback and yard requirements apply to a specific parcel or structure. A property owner who disagrees with staff's determination may appeal to the Board of Adjustment, which has authority to affirm, modify, or reverse the clarification.

The full agenda and supporting documents are posted on the town's Legistar calendar. The board's next scheduled meeting after June 3 has not yet been posted.
