التاريخ

Paradise Valley, looking east to Mummy Mountain

The town's history dates to a more agrarian society. After the initial European settlement, Paradise Valley was first used for cattle grazing. In the 1880s, when the land was being surveyed so it could be developed into agricultural lots, the name "Paradise Valley" first came into use, given by surveyors from the Rio Verde Canal Company and its manager at the time, Frank Conkey.[7] The name may have been chosen due to the abundance of spring wildflowers and palo verde trees.[8] Mainly an agricultural area during the 1800s and the first half of the 1900s, the area began to be settled after World War II, on large, one-to-five-acre (4,000 to 20,200 m2) lots for which it became known.

As the neighboring settlements of Phoenix and Scottsdale began to grow and annex adjoining areas, the residents of what became Paradise Valley were concerned that the qualities they most valued would be lost if they were consumed by their larger neighbors.[9] These residents formed the "Citizens Committee for the Incorporation of The Town of Paradise Valley, Arizona", which collected enough signatures to take to the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors. The supervisors granted the petition, allowing the town of Paradise Valley to be incorporated on May 24, 1961.[8]

Today, Paradise Valley is Phoenix's wealthiest suburb,[10][11] known primarily for its many resorts and expensive real estate.[12]

According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has an area of 15.4 square miles (40 km2), of which 0.03 square miles (0.08 km2), or 0.18%, is water.[2]

الحكومة

Mayor Jerry Bien-Willner, first elected in 2018, began his third term as mayor of Paradise Valley in 2022.[17] The mayor and six town council members are the elected representatives of the Town of Paradise Valley. The council has six members, who are elected to serve four-year staggered terms. In 2010, voters approved direct election of the mayor. Scott LeMarr became the first directly elected mayor in 2012. The council still selects its vice mayor from among its members.

The Town's accredited police department[18] is led by Chief Freeman Carney.[19]

In 2012, citizens gathered 500 signatures on a petition requesting that the council reconsider the issue of direct election of the mayor. In June 2012, the council voted to return the question of direct election of mayor to the people.[20] Residents voted to keep direct election of the mayor.

Paradise Valley is in Congressional District 6, which has been represented by David Schweikert since its creation in 2011.[21] Despite the town's conservative lean, at the state level it has been represented by three Democrats since 2020. A part of Legislative District 28, it is represented by Christine Marsh in the State Senate and by Kelli Butler and Aaron Lieberman in the House of Representatives.[22]

The town is not to be confused with Paradise Valley Village, an official municipal designation, in northeast Phoenix. For instance, Paradise Valley Community College, Paradise Valley High School, Paradise Valley Mall, Paradise Valley Golf Course, and the former Paradise Valley Hospital are all several miles north of the town, in Phoenix. The Paradise Valley Unified School District does not serve the town of paradise valley either, only the areas north of it; its boundaries end a few miles north of the border.
