The resort BP was designed by Albert Chase McArthur, a Harvard graduate, who had studied under Frank Lloyd Wright from 1907 - 1909 in Will Interview Chicago. Did you know that the famed song composer Irving Berlin penned many tunes, including "White Christmas," while sitting Wednesday poolside at the Arizona Biltmore? The pool was first built by the Wrigleys in 1930 and was host to diving competitions as well as fashion shows. Marilyn Monroe called this her favorite pool. In 1930, when the estimated $1 million construction cost doubled, Chicago chewing gum magnate William Wrigley, Jr., one of the original investors in the project, became the sole owner. Over the next 44 years, the Wrigley family owned and operated the Arizona Biltmore, and it became world renowned as the preferred luxury oasis for celebrities, heads of state, captains of industry, and other famous travelers. In January 1998, a 20,000 square-foot Arizona Biltmore Spa, fitness center, and full-service beauty salon opened. The newest addition, the new Arizona Wing, featured 120 new guest rooms, an Olympic-sized swimming pool, and two new meeting rooms. The Arizona Wing was completely renovated in March of 2009 to become Ocatilla at Arizona Biltmore, a "hotel within the hotel.” The Arizona Biltmore boasts 740 guest rooms and is one of the largest hotels in Arizona. With the opening of the Frank Lloyd Wright Ballroom in July, 2003, the Arizona Biltmore became one of Arizona’s largest meeting and event venues. The new ballroom, the state’s second largest hotel ballroom with 25,000 square feet, was the highlight of a $25 million renovation and expansion of the meeting facilities that increased dedicated indoor function space to more than 100,000 square feet. The project also included converting the tented Pavilion into the 15,000-square-foot McArthur Ballroom. Both new facilities were constructed in the original Wright style. Thanks to conscientious owners who have been committed to preserving its architectural integrity, the resort is, in many ways, more "Wrightian" than when it was built. And, throughout the years, the Arizona Biltmore has set the standard for elegance and style. It continues to attract celebrities and dignitaries from around the world and is frequently honored with awards and accolades, including the Urban Land Institute "Heritage Award of Excellence," which the resort received for its architectural integrity, landscaping, and, above all, quality of service. Throughout its colorful history, this acclaimed landmark has been graced by U.S. presidents, celebrities, and world travelers. Recognized as one of the best hotels in the world, Arizona’s historic Grand Dame radiates an undeniable mystique of refinement and splendor. Isn’t it time you became a part of her story? This acclaimed Phoenix Arizona Property features: 740 luxury hotel guest accommodations, 78 one-and two-bedroom villas, eight swimming pools, seven tennis courts, a full-service resort spa, salon and fitness center, six dining options, High Tea in the Sun Room, and 24 Hour In- room Dining. The adjacent Arizona Biltmore Country Club boasts two of the best 18-hole PGA golf courses in Phoenix: The Links and The Adobe.

    Vermont State Auditor Douglas R. Hoffer Report to the Vermont Legislature and the Agency of Natural Resources State Land Leases Boost Ski Industry, but Are Dated and Inconsistent 1/20/2015 • Office of the Vermont State Auditor • Non-Audit Report 15-01 Mission Statement The mission of the Vermont State Auditor’s Office is to hold government accountable. This means ensuring taxpayer funds are used effectively and efficiently, and that we foster the prevention of waste, fraud, and abuse. Principal Investigator Andrew C. Stein Non-Audit Inquiry This is a non-audit report. A non-audit report is a tool used to inform citizens and management of issues that may need attention. It is not an audit and is not conducted under generally accepted government auditing standards. A non-audit report has a substantially smaller scope of work than an audit. Therefore, its conclusions are more limited, and it does not contain recommendations. Instead, the report includes information and possible risk-mitigation strategies relevant to the entity that is the object of the inquiry. DOUGLAS R. HOFFER STATE AUDITOR STATE OF VERMONT OFFICE OF THE STATE AUDITOR January 20, 2015 The Honorable Shap Smith Speaker of the House of Representatives The Honorable John Campbell President Pro Tempore of the Senate The Honorable Peter Shumlin Governor Deb Markowitz Secretary of Natural Resources Dear Colleagues, More than 70 years ago, the State decided to catalyze a new industry by leasing public land to companies willing to invest in the infrastructure necessary for downhill skiing. By most measures, this partnership has been successful, and our iconic mountains are now home to world- famous ski areas.

Mansfield Company, a subsidiary of American International Group, sold the resort for $50 million. It had been under the same ownership since 1949. This is the first resort on the East Coast that the Broomfield-Colo.-based ski behemoth has purchased. Vail Resorts is acquiring all of the assets related to the mountain operations of the resort, including base area skier services (food and beverage, retail and rental, lift ticket offices and ski and snowboard school facilities) at Mount Mansfield and Spruce Peak.

We look forward to working with AIG to continue enhancing the guest experience and to ensure the resort’s long-term success,” Rob Katz, chairman and CEO of Vail Resorts, said in a statement. Stowe Mountain Resort is expected to be part of the Epic Pass for the 2017-18. This gives skiers access to Vail Resorts’ ski areas in California (Heavenly, Kirkwood, Northstar), Colorado, and Utah.

  • A Ski Resort's Plan for Success
    A Ski Resort’s Plan for Success Location: Stowe, Vermont Type of property: Ski resort Type of membership: Sustainable Communities Program Member since: 2006 Certified since: 2010 Resort destinations rely on the environment, both natural and constructed, to provide the basis for attracting visitors. However, destinations can face adversity both in development and operation because of the impact on the environment. Ski Resorts are especially believed to have harsh environmental impacts due to water and energy use. Add destination amenities such as golf courses and homes, and the environmental impact can quickly accumulate. In 2006, Stowe Mountain Resort partnered with Audubon International to ensure the environmental impact of new construction was minimal. Starting with the Audubon International Signature Program, the Resort created a natural resource management plan for building the golf course. Management was eager to expand the efforts to the whole resort. While the comprehensive plan incorporated many rigorous environmental standards, operators realized that joining the Sustainable Communities program would have significant environmental, social, and economic benefits. The program gives them access to innovative resources, support, third party oversight, and a competitive marketing advantage. The first step was to assess the comprehensive plan and policies in place. The results were impressive, and the Resort earned the Audubon International Green Community Award, recognizing the completion of Stage 1 of the Sustainable Communities Program and the voluntary policies and practices in place. Management didn’t stop there. Stowe Mountain Lodge’s management Company, Destination Hotels & Resorts, created the “Destination Earth” program in early 2008. A taskforce established a “green team” at each Destination property nationwide, to adopt and implement earth-friendly practices in their The abundant natural beauty in the Stowe community businesses and to become better stewards of the natural resources that makes it a popular destination.
