Board approves Walgreens site redesign for gas station at Boulder Highway and Flamingo Road

Summary
The Paradise Advisory Board approved design review and two waivers allowing Walgreens’ former store at Boulder Highway and Flamingo Road to be redeveloped as a convenience store with gas pumps; waivers cover driveway throat depth and retention of attached sidewalk in a short frontage segment.
The Paradise Advisory Board approved a design review and two development‑standard waivers to convert the former Walgreens site at the northeast corner of Boulder Highway and Flamingo Road into a convenience store and gas station in a CG (commercial) zone.
Applicant representatives said the existing Walgreens building will be demolished and replaced with a typical gas station layout and landscape improvements. The two waivers requested allow a reduced driveway throat depth on the Flamingo frontage and retention of attached sidewalks on a short section where the detached sidewalk requirement would impose significant ADA grade transitions.
The applicant provided a map showing nearby attached and detached sidewalks; planners and public‑works staff expressed no objection to the throat depth waiver for the Flamingo approach given site constraints and driveway geometry. The board approved the project with preliminary staff conditions.
