A long-running dispute between a downtown Tempe concert venue and a high-end, high-rise senior living community has been resolved.

A settlement between Shady Park and Mirabella at ASU was announced Thursday, March 30.

Shady Park “will implement enhanced sound-abatement measures” to allow it to host concerts while reducing noise in the area, according to a joint statement.

Mirabella and Shady Park officials were to ask the court to dismiss the lawsuit between them on Thursday.

“This agreement will keep the music going for Shady Park’s fans while letting surrounding residents get a good night’s sleep,” said Tom Dorough, Mirabella’s executive director.

“It’s a great result for the community and the city of Tempe.”

Shady Park will begin working with the city to obtain building permits to add sufficient sound-mitigation measures, the agreement announcement stated.

“We’ve always been committed to being good neighbors,” Shady Park’s owner Scott Price said.

“This resolution will allow us to once again host proper live music events while addressing our neighbors’ concerns.”

The settlement terms are confidential.

“Shady Park and Mirabella will not be providing additional statements,” the joint release stated.
