Meeting Date:01/06/2016
Requested by: Stacey Lemos Submitted By:Wendy Gomez, Finance
Department:Finance
Information
SUBJECT:
Fiscal Year 2015/16 Financial Update through October 2015
RECOMMENDATION:
This item is for information only.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
In the General Fund (see attachment A), revenues collected through October totaled $9.6 million or
29.7% of the budget amount of $32.2 million. Year-to-date expenditures through October totaled $9.8
million or 30.7% of the budget amount of $32.1 million. Please note that expenditures through October
include one-third, or approximately $345,000 of the planned transfer out of one-time construction sales
tax and permitting dollars to the CIP Fund for CIP projects. This is a reduced amount that reflects revised
one-time revenue projections as discussed in the September financials and referenced below.
In the Highway Fund (see attachment B), revenues collected through October totaled $1.1 million or
33.5% of the budget amount of $3.2 million. Year-to-date expenditures through October totaled $1.2
million or 23.9% of the budget amount of $4.9 million. It is important to note that the Highway Fund
budget included the planned use of $1.7 million in reserves, as all construction sales tax revenues are
now fully accounted for in the General Fund.
In the Bed Tax Fund (see attachment C), revenues collected through October totaled $245,010 or 25.8%
of the budget amount of $950,000. Year-to-date expenditures through October totaled $322,840 or
29.7% of the budget amount of $1.1 million. Please note that expenditures through October include the
budgeted transfer of approximately $230,000 to the Municipal Debt Service Fund for debt service due on
the Aquatic Center bonds.
In the Community Center & Golf Fund (see attachments D-1, D-2 and D-3), revenues collected through
October totaled $1.5 million or 20.5% of the budget amount of $7.4 million. Year-to-date expenditures
through October totaled $2.6 million or 32.1% of the budget amount of $8.2 million. It is important to note
that the year-end estimates for the Troon-managed operations have been revised lower to reflect actual
revenue trends observed in the first quarter of this fiscal year and operational changes taking effect in
December and remaining in place through the end of the fiscal year. These operational changes include
closing the golf courses and restaurant on Mondays, reduced hours at the restaurant, closing the Garden
Café, closing the lap pool through May and reduced hours in the fitness and tennis operations.
BACKGROUND OR DETAILED INFORMATION:
GENERAL FUND
GENERAL FUND
Attachment A shows General Fund revenues and expenditures through October, as well as year-end
estimates for each category. The estimated year-end projections in the General Fund are as follows:
Revenues $31,551,593
Less:
Expenditures ($31,441,980)
Less:
Council-Approved Use of Contingency:
- 8.8 Acre Land Purchase ($ 265,000) Approved September 2, 2015
- Lawsuit Settlement ($ 30,000) Approved September 16, 2015
- Special Election Costs ($ 30,000) Approved June 17, 2015
Est. Decrease in Fund Balance ($ 215,387)
General Fund Revenues
Local sales tax collections in the General Fund total $4.3 million or 28.3% of the budget amount of
$15.4 million. These revenues are estimated to come in under budget by $576,000 or 3.8% due
entirely to one-time construction sales taxes from updated projections on single family residential
building activity and slower commercial development than planned. Single family residential permits
for FY 15/16 are estimated at 165, versus 200 budgeted. All other local sales tax categories are
trending on budget. Please see Attachment F for a monthly tracking of General Fund local sales
tax collections, including construction and utility sales tax.
License and permit revenues total $407,729 or 23.1% of the budget amount of $1.8 million. These
revenues are estimated to come in under budget by $218,000 or 12.4% due to updated projections
on residential and commercial building activity, as referenced above.
Federal grant revenues total $255,806 or 46.4% of the budget amount of $551,545. These
revenues are estimated to come in under budget by about $73,000 or 13.2% due to recent financial
changes at the Counter Narcotics Alliance (CNA). The loss in revenue will be offset with vacancy
savings in the Police Department.
State shared revenues total $3.4 million or 32.5% of the budget amount of $10.4 million, and are
estimated to come in over budget by roughly $145,000 or 1.4%, based on projections from the
Arizona Department of Revenue and the League of Arizona Cities and Towns.
Charges for Services revenues total $664,268 or 35.4% of the budget amount of $1.9 million.
These revenues are anticipated to come in over budget by about $90,000 or 4.8% due mostly to
revenues at the Aquatic Center.
Revenues from fines total $51,817 or 43.2% of the budget amount of $120,000, and are estimated
to come in over budget by $20,000 or 16.7%, based on observed trends.
General Fund Expenditures
Expenditures are estimated to come in under budget by approximately $630,000 or 2.0%. Of this
amount, approximately $475,000 was planned for one-time CIP projects, to be funded entirely with
one-time construction sales taxes and permitting revenues. As noted in the Executive Summary,
several projects have been slowed down or placed on hold temporarily due to the updated
projections on single family residential and commercial construction activity. Should construction
activity increase, these projects can be resumed and may be rolled over into next year's budget if
not completed this year. The remaining expenditure budget variance is due to estimated personnel
and department operating savings. Please note that these savings are estimates and are subject to
change.
HIGHWAY FUND
Highway Fund Revenues
State shared highway user revenue funds (HURF) total $953,779 or 31.9% of the budget amount of
$3.0 million. Highway Fund revenues in total are estimated to come in over budget by nearly
$53,000 or 1.6% due to one-time insurance recoveries and reimbursement from the Pima
Association of Governments (PAG) for Transportation Art by Youth (TABY) program expenditures.
Highway Fund Expenditures
Expenditures are estimated to come in under budget by about $14,000 or 0.3% due to anticipated
personnel savings. Please note that these personnel savings are estimates and are subject to
change.
BED TAX FUND
Bed Tax Revenues
Bed tax revenues total $243,758 or 25.8% of the budget amount of $945,000, and are estimated to
come in on budget at this time.
Bed Tax Fund Expenditures
Expenditures are estimated to come in under budget by about $5,600 or 0.5% due to projected
personnel savings. Please note that personnel savings are estimates and are subject to change.
COMMUNITY CENTER & GOLF FUND
Attachment D-1 shows the consolidated financial status of the Community Center and Golf Fund with all
revenues and expenditures from Troon and Town-managed operations.
Attachment D-2 shows the monthly line item detail for the Troon-managed operations, specifically
revenues and expenditures associated with the golf, tennis, food and beverage and lifeguard operations.
The totals in the revenue and expenditure categories in Attachment D-2 tie to the Contracted Operating
Revenues and Expenditures in Attachment D-1.
Attachment D-3 shows the revenues and expenditures for the Troon-managed food and beverage
operations only.
Please note that the negative fund balance of $80,576 shown on Attachment F for the Community Center
& Golf Fund is projected to turn positive following an anticipated increase in winter and spring activity for
golf season and holiday sales tax collections.
Community Center & Golf Fund Revenues
Revenues in the Community Center & Golf Fund total $1.5 million or 20.5% of the budget amount
of $7.4 million. Contracted operating revenues from Troon total $754,231 and Town operating
revenues total $198,478. Local sales tax revenues from the dedicated half-cent sales tax total
$566,952 or 28.3% of the budget amount of $2,000,000.
Contracted operating revenues from Troon are estimated to come in under budget by about
$1,376,000 or 29.0%, based on the revised forecast from Troon through the remainder of the fiscal
year. Original budgeted revenues for the Troon-managed functions of golf, food and beverage and
tennis operations totaled $4.7 million for the fiscal year. These revenue estimates have been
revised downward to $3.4 million based on observed trends in the first quarter of this fiscal year.
Town operating revenues are estimated to come in slightly under budget by about $14,000 or 2.2%
due to revised estimates for tennis court and facility rental income.
Community Center & Golf Fund Expenditures
Expenditures in the Community Center & Golf Fund total $2.6 million or 32.1% of the budget
amount of $8.2 million. Contracted operating expenditures from Troon total $2.2 million and Town
operating expenditures total $199,204. Capital outlay expenditures total $184,109.
Contracted operating expenditures from Troon are estimated to come in under budget by about
$928,000 or 14.8% based on the updated forecast from Troon through the remainder of the fiscal
year reflecting savings from operational changes that were implemented in December, including
closure of the golf courses on Mondays, reduced hours at The Overlook restaurant, reductions in
staffing levels in the golf maintenance and restaurant operations, closure of the lap pool through
May and reduced hours at the tennis facilities. Original budgeted expenditures for the
Troon-managed operations totaled $6.2 million for the fiscal year. The year-end estimates have
been revised downward to $5.3 million. Accordingly, the year-end net loss for the Troon-managed
operations has been revised from $1.5 million to approximately $1.96 million.
The ending fund balance in the Community Center and Golf Fund is estimated at $259,000.

Town Council Regular Session Item # C.
Meeting Date:01/06/2016
Requested by: Stacey Lemos Submitted By:Wendy Gomez, Finance
Department:Finance
Information
SUBJECT:
Fiscal Year 2015/16 Financial Update through November 2015
RECOMMENDATION:
This item is for information only.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
In the General Fund (see attachment A), revenues collected through November totaled $11.8 million or
36.7% of the budget amount of $32.2 million. Year-to-date expenditures through November totaled $12.0
million or 37.5% of the budget amount of $32.1 million. Please note that expenditures through November
include one-third or approximately $345,000 of the planned transfer out of one-time construction sales
tax and permitting dollars to the CIP Fund for CIP projects. This is a reduced amount that reflects revised
one-time revenue projections as referenced below.
In the Highway Fund (see attachment B), revenues collected through November totaled $1.3 million or
41.2% of the budget amount of $3.2 million. Year-to-date expenditures through November totaled $1.7
million or 35.4% of the budget amount of $4.9 million. It is important to note that the Highway Fund
budget included the planned use of $1.7 million in reserves, as all construction sales tax revenues are
now fully accounted for in the General Fund.
In the Bed Tax Fund (see attachment C), revenues collected through November totaled $335,569 or
35.3% of the budget amount of $950,000. Year-to-date expenditures through November totaled $411,369
or 37.8% of the budget amount of $1.1 million. Please note that expenditures through November include
the budgeted transfer of approximately $230,000 to the Municipal Debt Service Fund for debt service due
on the Aquatic Center bonds.
In the Community Center & Golf Fund (see attachments D-1, D-2 and D-3), revenues collected through
November totaled $2.0 million or 27.0% of the budget amount of $7.4 million. Year-to-date expenditures
through November totaled $3.2 million or 38.6% of the budget amount of $8.2 million. It is important to
note that the year-end estimates for the Troon-managed operations have been revised lower to reflect
actual revenue trends observed in the first quarter of this fiscal year and operational changes taking
effect in December and remaining in place through the end of the fiscal year. These operational changes
include closing the golf courses and restaurant on Mondays, reduced hours at the restaurant, closing the
Garden Café, closing the lap pool through May and reduced hours in the fitness and tennis operations.
BACKGROUND OR DETAILED INFORMATION:
GENERAL FUND
GENERAL FUND
Attachment A shows General Fund revenues and expenditures through November, as well as year-end
estimates for each category. The estimated year-end projections in the General Fund are as follows:
Revenues $31,555,542
Less:
Expenditures ($31,435,154)
Less:
Council-Approved Use of Contingency:
- 8.8 Acre Land Purchase ($ 265,000) Approved September 2, 2015
- Lawsuit Settlement ($ 30,000) Approved September 16, 2015
- Special Election Costs ($ 30,000) Approved June 17, 2015
Est. Decrease in Fund Balance ($ 204,612)
General Fund Revenues
Local sales tax collections in the General Fund total $5.3 million or 34.8% of the budget amount of
$15.4 million. These revenues are estimated to come in under budget by $576,000 or 3.8% due
entirely to one-time construction sales taxes from updated projections on single family residential
building activity and slower commercial development than planned. Single family residential permits
for FY 15/16 are estimated at 165, versus 200 budgeted. All other local sales tax categories are
trending on budget. Please see Attachment F for a monthly tracking of General Fund local sales
tax collections, including construction and utility sales tax.
License and permit revenues total $494,542 or 28.0% of the budget amount of $1.8 million. These
revenues are estimated to come in under budget by $218,000 or 12.4% due to updated projections
on residential and commercial building activity, as referenced above.
Federal grant revenues total $284,937 or 51.7% of the budget amount of $551,545. These
revenues are estimated to come in under budget by about $73,000 or 13.3% due to recent financial
changes at the Counter Narcotics Alliance (CNA). The loss in revenue will be offset with vacancy
savings in the Police Department.
State shared revenues total $4.2 million or 40.7% of the budget amount of $10.4 million, and are
estimated to come in over budget by roughly $145,000 or 1.4%, based on projections from the
Arizona Department of Revenue and the League of Arizona Cities and Towns.
Charges for Services revenues total $801,767 or 42.8% of the budget amount of $1.9 million.
These revenues are anticipated to come in over budget by about $90,000 or 4.8% due mostly to
revenues at the Aquatic Center.
Revenues from fines total $63,984 or 53.3% of the budget amount of $120,000, and are estimated
to come in over budget by $20,000 or 16.7% based on observed trends.
Interest income revenues are negative due to recent unrealized losses attributable to market
fluctuations in the Town's investment portfolio as interest rates move. This activity occurs routinely
in the Town's portfolio, and any realized losses and gains are finalized and posted at year-end. At
this point, staff is projecting to end the year on budget in this category.
General Fund Expenditures
Expenditures are estimated to come in under budget by approximately $638,000 or 2.0%. Of this
amount, approximately $475,000 was planned for one-time CIP projects to be funded entirely with
one-time construction sales taxes and permitting revenues. Projects have been slowed down or
placed on hold temporarily, due to the updated projections on single family residential and
placed on hold temporarily, due to the updated projections on single family residential and
commercial construction activity. Should construction activity increase, these projects can be
resumed and may be rolled over into next year's budget if not completed this year. The remaining
expenditure budget variance is due to estimated personnel and department operating savings.
Please note that these savings are estimates and are subject to change.
HIGHWAY FUND
Highway Fund Revenues
State shared highway user revenue funds (HURF) total $1.2 million or 40.0% of the budget amount
of $3.0 million. Highway Fund revenues in total are estimated to come in over budget by nearly
$53,000 or 1.6%, due to one-time insurance recoveries and reimbursement from the Pima
Association of Governments (PAG) for Transportation Art by Youth (TABY) program expenditures.
Highway Fund Expenditures
Expenditures are estimated to come in under budget by about $14,000 or 0.3% due to anticipated
personnel savings. Please note that these personnel savings are estimates and are subject to
change.
BED TAX FUND
Bed Tax Revenues
Bed tax revenues total $335,622 or 35.5% of the budget amount of $945,000, and are estimated to
come in on budget at this time.
Bed Tax Fund Expenditures
Expenditures are estimated to come in under budget by about $5,600 or 0.5% due to projected
personnel savings. Please note that personnel savings are estimates and are subject to change.
COMMUNITY CENTER & GOLF FUND
Attachment D-1 shows the consolidated financial status of the Community Center and Golf Fund with all
revenues and expenditures from Troon and Town-managed operations.
Attachment D-2 shows the monthly line item detail for the Troon-managed operations, specifically
revenues and expenditures associated with the golf, tennis, food and beverage and lifeguard operations.
The totals in the revenue and expenditure categories in Attachment D-2 tie to the Contracted Operating
Revenues and Expenditures in Attachment D-1.
Attachment D-3 shows the revenues and expenditures for the Troon-managed food and beverage
operations only.
Please note that the negative fund balance of $135,389 shown on Attachment F for the Community
Center & Golf Fund is projected to turn positive following an anticipated increase in winter and spring
activity for golf season and holiday sales tax collections.
Community Center & Golf Fund Revenues
Revenues in the Community Center & Golf Fund total $2.0 million or 27.0% of the budget amount
of $7.4 million. Contracted operating revenues from Troon total $1,044,121 and Town operating
revenues total $232,748. Local sales tax revenues from the dedicated half-cent sales tax total
$724,667 or 36.2% of the budget amount of $2,000,000.
Contracted operating revenues from Troon are estimated to come in under budget by about $1.4
million or 29.6%, based on the updated forecast from Troon through the remainder of the fiscal
year. These revenue estimates have been revised downward to $3.3 million from the original
budgeted amount of $4.7 million based on lower revenue trends observed in the first quarter of the
fiscal year.
Town operating revenues are estimated to come in slightly under budget by about $14,000 or 2.2%
due to revised estimates for tennis court and facility rental income.
Community Center & Golf Fund Expenditures
Expenditures in the Community Center & Golf Fund total $3.2 million or 38.6% of the budget
amount of $8.2 million. Contracted operating expenditures from Troon total $2.7 million and Town
operating expenditures total $254,527. Capital outlay expenditures total $249,793.
Contracted operating expenditures from Troon are estimated to come in under budget by about
$968,000 or 15.5%, based on the updated forecast from Troon through the remainder of the fiscal
year reflecting savings from operational changes that were implemented in December, as well as
other line item expense reductions in the operations and maintenance categories, including closure
of the golf courses on Mondays, reduced hours at The Overlook restaurant, reductions in staffing
levels in the golf maintenance and restaurant operations, closure of the lap pool through May and
reduced hours at the tennis facilities. The year-end expenditure estimates have been revised
downward to $5.3 million from the original budgeted amount of $6.2 million. Accordingly, the
year-end net loss for the Troon-managed operations has been revised from the budgeted amount
of $1.5 million to approximately $1.95 million.
The ending fund balance in the Community Center and Golf Fund is estimated at $259,000.
Please see attachments A, B and C for additional details on the General Fund, Highway Fund and Bed
Tax Fund, respectively. See attachments D-1, D-2 and D-3 for additional details on the Community
Center & Golf Fund. See Attachment E for a fiscal year-to-date consolidated summary of all Town funds.

Town Council Regular Session Item # E.
Meeting Date:01/06/2016
Submitted By:Chris Cornelison, Town Manager's Office
Department:Town Manager's Office
Information
SUBJECT:
Resolution No. (R)16-01, approving the Town's annual Legislative Agenda, protocols guiding the Town’s
priorities for the upcoming legislative session and any lobbying activities
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Each year, the Town Council approves a general Town of Oro Valley Legislative Agenda covering state
and federal issues. This agenda identifies the recommended legislative priorities of the Town in the
upcoming state legislative session and will guide the Town's requests and lobbying activities.
Although the Legislative Agenda should remain flexible due to the unknown nature of bills introduced in
the State Legislature, the general concepts and direction are provided here for your discussion and
approval. More specific information can be provided, as desired and necessary, after bills are actually
introduced. The issues discussed in this report are based on the needs of the Town and what is known
about anticipated legislation.
Town staff and the Council legislative liaison, Councilmember Joe Hornat, will work closely throughout
the legislative session in addressing a variety of issues and bills that may arise.
BACKGROUND OR DETAILED INFORMATION:
Town staff and the Council liaison, Councilmember Joe Hornat, will work closely throughout the
legislative session in addressing a variety of issues and bills that may arise.
Council Policy
In 2008, the Town Council established protocol for the legislative efforts of the Town by approving the
general Legislative Agenda through a resolution and adoption of a Council Communication that describes
specific components of the legislative program. A basic principle in any lobbying effort is to speak with
one voice, so this resolution establishes guidelines for those who represent the Town. A summary of the
elements of the 2016 Legislative Agenda pertaining to the State Legislature is included as Attachment 2.
For state legislative efforts, the Council uses staff and designates a Councilmember as Council Liaison to
Legislative Districts 9 and 11. The Mayor also frequently interacts with other elected officials at all levels
of government during the course of his duties and works with staff in ensuring any legislative efforts
regionally, statewide or federally are coordinated in accordance with the Council-adopted agenda.
League of Arizona Cities and Towns
The Town’s intergovernmental liaison works closely with the League of Arizona Cities and Towns,
specifically regarding state legislative issues with a strength-in-numbers approach to common interest
legislation. The state legislative agenda is developed through involvement in the League resolutions
process. The Mayor represents the Town of Oro Valley as a voting member of the Resolutions
Committee, which is comprised of mayors from all Arizona municipalities. The adopted League
resolutions, included as Attachment 3, represent the mutual interests of Arizona cities and towns, and will
guide the League in its lobbying efforts on behalf of all cities and towns in the state.
The 52nd State Legislature
The complete list of members of the 52nd Legislature is included as Attachment 4. Staff will also provide
members of the Council with an updated version of "The Green Book," the Arizona Capitol Times guide
to the Legislature, as soon as it becomes available.
State Legislative Calendar / Process
The Legislature typically operates on a 100-day calendar; however, the Governor also has the authority
to call the Legislature into session to address specific issues. The 2nd Regular Session of the 52nd
Legislature begins Monday, January 11, 2016. Furthermore, the Legislature typically conducts business
Monday through Thursday. The target date for the end of the regular session is April 20, 2016.
Over one-thousand bills are introduced in the Legislature each session. In the Senate, all bills must be
introduced within three weeks of the start of the session, and in the House, bills must be introduced within
four weeks. As a result, all bills will be introduced prior to February 8, 2016, although there are provisions
that allow members to submit bill amendments throughout the session, which effectively means that a bill
with co-sponsors can be introduced at any time during the regular session.
FISCAL IMPACT:
N/A
SUGGESTED MOTION:
I MOVE to (adopt or deny) Resolution No. (R)16-01, approving the Town's annual Legislative Agenda
and protocols guiding the Town's priorities for the upcoming legislative session and any lobbying
activities.

EXHIBIT “A”
2016 Legislative Agenda Summary
The following paragraphs provide a summary of key elements of the 2016 Legislative Agenda. Although
the legislative agenda should remain flexible due to the unknown nature of bills introduced in the State
Legislature, the general concepts and direction are provided here for your discussion and approval.
Local Control
Decentralized government at the local level represents a fundamental principle of American democracy,
recognizing that when it comes to community governance, one size does not fit all. It is in the Town’s best
interest to preserve its own local control on issues that affect its citizens and therefore, the Town will
endorse legislation that supports and sustains this principle and oppose legislation that conflicts with the
autonomy of cities and towns.
State Shared Revenues & Highway User Revenue Fund (HURF)
Possible reductions in state-shared revenues remain a major concern for cities and towns. The revenue
sharing system was created through the voter initiative process in order to allow local jurisdictions to fund
essential services such as public safety and infrastructure without interference from the State. Protection
of the revenue sharing system that has been in place since 1972 is a core principle of the League of
Arizona Cities and Towns, and remains a top priority of the Town’s legislative agenda.
In 2014, the Legislature passed SB 1487 (revenue; budget reconciliation; 2014-2015), which authorized
the allocation of $30M for FY 2014/15, $30M for FY 2015/16 and $60M for FY 2016/17 to the HURF
utilizing a calculation set forth within the statute. Since cities and towns have experienced significant
reductions in the HURF during previous legislative sessions, it is a concern that the revenues authorized
within SB 1487 will be discontinued due to the State’s current budget deficit projections. As a result, the
Town supports legislative efforts to restore or maintain HURF funding and identify permanent, designated
funding sources for transportation infrastructure and transit that do not impact other state-shared
revenues.
Education & Economic Development
Although the Town is not directly involved in education issues, public education is important to the long-
term health and vitality of our community, and is a fundamental component of economic development.
The University of Arizona, Pima Community College, Amphitheater School District, and public charter
schools provide the foundation for our future success. The Town does not support efforts to reduce
funding for public education.
Economic development that creates high-wage jobs and builds on our success as a hub for high-tech and
bio-medical research, development and manufacturing is a top priority of the Town. The Town supports
state economic development efforts through the Arizona Commerce Authority and efforts to develop the
film industry through a tax incentive program.
With statewide growing interest in developing Interstate 11 as a major transportation route between
Mexico and Canada, the Town supports the passage of legislation or engagement in other activities that
support and advocate for resources to improve Arizona’s ports of entry with Mexico and related
infrastructure. However, the Town’s top priority is for the southern extension of I-11 to be aligned through
the Tucson-metro area.
Annexation
State statutes regarding municipal annexation have become overly complex and are a barrier to regional
development and fiscal sustainability. As a result, the Town supports reforms that remove barriers to
annexation and reduce the need for counties to provide municipal services such as public safety,
roadway maintenance, and development services.
Because the state-shared revenue system is based on the population of incorporated areas, the Tucson
metro areas loses out on tens of millions of dollars in sales tax, income tax and highway tax revenue each
year. Sensible reforms that facilitate annexation of unincorporated areas and county islands by towns like
Oro Valley, Marana and Sahuarita will result in enhanced services to residents and businesses and will
bring additional state-shared revenue to the region. The Town supports reforms that remove barriers to
annexation and reduce the need for counties to provide municipal services.
Public Safety Personnel Retirement System (PSPRS) Pension Reform
Reforming PSPRS is one of the most important issues facing taxpayers in Arizona, as the current system
is not sustainable. The growing unfunded liability results in increased annual pension costs for employers,
resulting in a larger share of an employer’s budget to be spent on pension costs, with fewer resources
available for public safety and other essential services. The Town supports evaluation and reform efforts
to create a sustainable pension system that will serve to attract the highest quality employees while
maintaining affordability for taxpayers.
OVERVIEW
The 91 incorporated cities and towns of Arizona are ~n$Ne
10 their constituents and efficiently deliver the essential $8rvices
their citizens demand through transparent operations, fiscal
responsibility and long range planning. Cities and towns are
whe ... the majority ol the stale's papulation liws and works and

Policy Statement represents the 2016 palicy prioriHes adopted
10 ensure cities and towns throughout Arizona continue 10 hCJ'lle
the necessary tools to maintain high quality service delivery to
residents and businesses.
CORE PRINCIPLES
The League of Arizona Cities and Towns is governed by two
core principles: 11 Preserve locol control, and 21 Protect s~ared
revenue. Adherence to these principles is the Foundation of
all the league's eIIorts. We will support legislation that reinfcrces
these principles, and oppose any that undermines them.
ICQNOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND INFRASTRUcnJRE
Cities and towns are at the forefront of economic vitality and
growth. Incorporating these policies would advance financial
success.

Town Council Regular Session Item # 1.
Meeting Date:01/06/2016
Requested by: Amanda Jacobs Submitted By:Amanda Jacobs, Town Manager's Office
Department:Town Manager's Office
Information
SUBJECT:
DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE DIRECTION ON THE PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP WITH
TOHONO CHUL PARK TO COMPLETE PHASE 1 OF THE 420-SEATED EVENT PAVILION
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
This item is being brought before Town Council for discussion and direction in regard to moving forward
with the remaining work included in Phase 1 (developing the design) of a 420-seated event pavilion. The
first portion of Phase 1 was the market analysis for building an event pavilion which included holding
stakeholder and community meetings. The cost of the event pavilion will be determined when Phase 1 is
completed. The remaining portion of Phase 1 will consist of developing the design, which is estimated to
cost approximately $70,000. The Town's financial contribution would not exceed $7,800 and would
include waiving of fees and other associated costs. On March 13, 2015, TCP officials met
with Councilmembers to discuss the possibility of entering into a public-private partnership to build an
event pavilion, which would proceed in two phases. Phase 2 would be the parking lot expansion and
construction of the pavilion.
BACKGROUND OR DETAILED INFORMATION:
At the July 1, 2015 Council meeting, Town Council directed staff to enter into a public-private partnership
with TCP to determine the market and feasibility for building an event pavilion, as well as directed staff to
hold up to three stakeholder meetings. As a result, TCP and staff held stakeholder meetings on
September 3, September 24 and October 26, 2015. Attached to this report are the notes from all three
meetings. The event pavilion concept was discussed during the stakeholder meetings. Consequently,
input was received that there is a market for this facility and participants concurred the event pavilion
provides the following benefits:
Flexible set-up options for a variety of events - concerts, performances, lectures, celebrations, art
and plant sales and children activities
Room for stage riser and dance floor
Space for 240 seated at 10-top tables (420 seated auditorium style)
Shade/rain pavilion
Provision for ceiling fans and infrared radiant heaters in the ceiling
Pavilion roof can harvest rainwater
The parking lot expansion provides the following benefits:
Provides additional spaces for ADA
Ensures a safer experience for the public by lessening the need to park along the roadside or
Ensures a safer experience for the public by lessening the need to park along the roadside or
across the street at night
Allows easy access to seniors and disabled volunteers, staff and visitors to the new pavilion,
administration building, gallery house and adjacent amenities with parking spaces and drop off area
near the back gate
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fiscal impact is $7,800 in waived permitting fees (approved at the July 1, 2015 Council meeting).
SUGGESTED MOTION:
I MOVE to (approve/deny) the public-private partnership with Tohono Chul Park to complete Phase 1
with the purpose to design a 420-seated event pavilion.

Town Council Regular Session Item # 2.
Meeting Date:01/06/2016

SUBJECT:
PUBLIC HEARING: RESOLUTION NO. (R)16-02, AUTHORIZING AND APPROVING INCREASES IN
WATER RATES, FEES AND CHARGES FOR THE TOWN OF ORO VALLEY WATER UTILITY
RECOMMENDATION:
On November 9, 2015, the Water Utility Commission voted to recommend that Council approve the
proposed increase in water rates, fees and charges included in the Preferred Financial Scenario. Staff
also recommends Council approval of the rate increases proposed in the Preferred Financial Scenario
detailed in the Water Rates Analysis Report, dated November 2015.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Pursuant to A.R.S. § 9-511.01, the Council adopted a Notice of Intent to increase water rates on
December 2, 2015. The Notice of Intent established a public hearing date for January 6, 2016. The
Water Rates Analysis Report was made available for public review by placing a copy of the report in the
Town Clerk's office, the Water Utility office and on the Water Utility's webpage. The Notice of Intent was
also published in the Daily Territorial on December 8, 2015.
The Water Rates Analysis Report includes the Preferred Financial Scenario pro forma in Appendix A,
which proposes an increase in the potable and reclaimed water commodity rates. There will be no
increases in the monthly base rates or the groundwater preservation fees. The proposed potable rates
will increase the average residential customer's bill by $0.44 per month based on 8,000 gallons of water
used. The average commercial customer using 57,000 gallons of water will see an increase of $2.85 per
month. The proposed reclaimed rate commodity rate will increase a golf course's monthly water bill by
$400.00 based on 10,000,000 gallons of water used. Tables providing the financial impact to all meter
sizes and customer classifications may be found in Appendix B of the report.
It is also proposed that the security deposit for construction water meters be increased to $2,300.00 to
recover material costs associated with replacing the meter and backflow device if they are returned
damaged by a contractor. If the equipment is returned in good condition, the security deposit is refunded
in full.
If the proposed rates are approved, the new rates will become effective February 6, 2016.
BACKGROUND OR DETAILED INFORMATION:
In accordance with the Town Council Water Policies, Water Utility staff reviews water rates and charges
In accordance with the Town Council Water Policies, Water Utility staff reviews water rates and charges
on an annual basis. The Water Utility Commission evaluates staff recommendations based on a rates
analysis to assure the recommendations meet Town policies and bond covenants. The Oro Valley Water
Utility Commission voted on a recommendation for the Preferred Financial Scenario in the Water Rates
Analysis Report. The pro forma for the Preferred Financial Scenario may be found in Appendix A in the
report. These financial projections are for a five-year period; however, water rates are approved only for
the first year of this five-year projection period. The following summarizes the proposed changes in water
rates and service fees for FY 2015-16:
Increase in the potable and reclaimed water commodity rates
Increase in the potable and reclaimed construction water rates
Increase in the construction meter security deposits
The following rates will not be changed:
The monthly base rates for potable and reclaimed water
The groundwater preservation fees for potable and reclaimed
The proposed increase in the potable water commodity rates will increase the average residential
customer's bill by $0.44 per month based on using 8,000 gallons of water. The average commercial
customer uses 57,000 gallon of water and will see an increase of $2.85 per month. The proposed
increase in the reclaimed commodity rate will increase a golf course's monthly bill by $400.00 based on
using 10,000,000 gallons of water.
The construction meter security deposit is proposed to increase by $1,100.00 to $2,300 in order to
recover material costs when the equipment is returned damaged. The security deposit is fully refunded
when the equipment is returned in good condition.
The proposed water rates increase is in accordance with Town Council policy:
Debt service coverage requirement of 1.3 is met or exceeded for all five years
Cash reserve policy requirements are met for all five years
The proposed rate increase avoids sudden and large-scale shifts in water rates (no "rate shock")
and avoids higher rate increases in future years
Encourages water conservation by providing an incentive to use less water and save
money through the existing tiered-rate structure for single-family residential customers and irrigation
customers
If the proposed rates are approved, the new rates, fees and charges will become effective February 6,
2016.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The proposed rate increases will generate sufficient revenue to meet the Water Utility's revenue
requirements. The increase in the construction meter security deposit will reduce the Utility's financial risk
associated with the replacement of damaged equipment. All proposed rates, fees and charges are
designed to maintain the financial stability and fiscal health of the Town's Water Utility.
SUGGESTED MOTION:
I MOVE to (approve or deny) Resolution No. (R)16-02, authorizing and approving increases in water
rates, fees and charges for the Town of Oro Valley Water Utility.

WATER RATES ANALYSIS REPORT
NOVEMBER 2015
The functions and dutie s of the Or o Valley Water Utility Commission include reviewing and
de ve loping r ecommen dation s for wa ter re ven ue requirements, water rates and fee st ru ctures . The
Commission annually evaluates staff recomm enda tion s based on a rat es analysis to assure the
recommendations meet Town policies and bond covenants. Water rates and charges shall be
reviewed annually under M ayor and Town Council Water Policies -II.A.2.b(4).
The Utility has based its financial analysis on the American Water Works Association (AWWA) Cash
Needs Approach. The AWWA is the largest national organization that develops water and
was t ewa t er policies, specifications an d rate setting guidelines accepte d by both government-owned
and pri vate water and wastewater utilities worldwide.
Thi s Water Rates Analysis Report con tains detailed information on the three funds that comprise the
Oro Valley Water Utility:
~ Op era ting Fund
~ Alternative Water Resources Development Impact Fee Fund (AWRDIF Fund)
~ Potable Water System Development Impact Fee Fund (PWSDIF Fund)
Each fund is individually analyzed with regard to revenue and revenu e requirements. The Utility is
an enterprise of the Town and generates revenue from r ates, fees and charg es and does not re ce ive
re ve nu e from taxes or other payments from the General Fund.
The Water Utility Commission has made a recomm endat ion for a Preferred Financial Scenario.
Under the Preferred Financi al Scenario, the Operating Fund is projected to have an ending cash
balance of $3,647,174 at the end of the five-year projection period which meets the cash reServe
requirement. To determine the cash reserve balance, the cash balan ce of the Operating Fund is
combined with the cash balan ce of the Groundwater Preservation Fees. The Preferred Financial
Scenario includes cash funding and new debt to finance capital proje cts .
Each year the water rate s ana lysis is prepared bas ed on the most up-to-date informatio n available
for a five-year projection period. Operational needs and capital improveme nt requirem en t s cha nge
annually and are carefully eva luated when they are included in the analy sis.
The Preferred Financial Scenario res ults in financially so und cash balances in the AWRDIF Fund and
the PWSDIF Fund. These cash balances will be used to finance capital projects to meet the demands
of new growth and development. Pursuant to Arizona Revised Statute 9-463.05, revenue from the
individual impact fee funds may not be consolidated nor use d for any purpose other than for which
they Were originally established.

The Preferred Financial Scenario includes five-year projections for each fund and evaluates the
impact of future costs and the revenue sources that will be required to meet those costs. Based on
the data contained within the Preferred Financial Scenar io , Water Utility Staff and the Water Utility
Commission have made the following recommendations on water rate s for FY 2015-16:
~ Increase in the potable and reclaimed commodity rates
~ Increase in the potable and reclaimed construction water rates
~ Increase in construction meter deposits
~ No in crease i n the monthly base rates for potable and reclaimed water
~ No change in the potable and reclaimed Groundwater Preservation Fee (GPF)

Introduction
TOWN OF ORO VALLEY
WATER UTILITY
WATER RATES ANALYSIS REPORT
NOVEMBER 2015
The Oro Va ll ey Water Utility was estab li shed in 1996 as a self-supporting enterprise of the Town .
The Utility is comprised of three separate funds that have been established for specific purposes.
The Funds are as follows:
~ Operating Fund
~ Alternative Water Resources Development Impact Fee Fund
~ Potable Water System Development Impact Fee Fund
The Operating Fund is the primary fund for th e Utility. Revenue for this fund includ es wate r sales,
service fees, miscellaneous charges and interest income. The Utility does not receive revenue from
ta xes or oth er payments from the Town General Fund. The expenditures managed from this fund
includ e personnel, operations and maintenance for both potable and recl aimed wa t er systems,
capital costs for ex ist ing potable water system improvements and related debt service. The Utility
pays the General Fund for services received including finance, human resources, fleet services,
information technology, legal, insurance and rental of office space. Groundwater Preservation Fee
(GPF) revenue is accounted for w ithin the Operating Fund. More information on the GPF may be
found on page 10 of this report.
Th e Alternat iv e Water Resources Development Impact Fee Fund (AWRDIF) was established in 1996
to manage cap ital expend itures related to alternative water re sources including reclaimed water
and Central Arizona Project (CAP) water. Revenue for this fund is r eceived from impact fees
collected at the time water meters are purchased and from interest income. Expenditures include
capita l repayment obligation charges for the Town's CAP allotment and infrastructure and
associated debt service to deliver CAP water to the Town for future growth and development.
The Potable Water System Development Imp act Fee Fund (PWSDIF) was established in 1996 to
manage capita l expenditures related to expansion or growth-re lated potable water cap ital projects
and related debt serv ice . Revenue for this fund is received from impact fees co ll ected at the time
water meters are purchased and from interest in come. Expenditures may include wells, pump
stat ion s, reservoirs and mains for the potable water system required to meet the demands of future
growth and development.
The revenue and expend itures of all three funds are combined to determine if the Utility meets the
debt service coverage requirement estab li shed in the Mayor and To wn Council Water Policies and
current bond covenants. Otherwise, each fund is independent with regard to revenue and expenses.
Pursuant to Ar izona Revised Statute (ARS) 9-463.05 Section B.9., impact fees must be placed in a
separate fund and accounted for separate ly. ARS 9-463.05 Section B.S. states that the impact fees
-3 -
may not be used for operations and maintenance of existing facilities, Each fund is addressed in
more detail on pages 12 and 13 of the report,
Growth Rates
The Utility's growth rates have fluctuated over the past several years , Figure 1 illustrates the Utility's
growth rate of 12,8 percent or 2,178 new metered connections over the last 10 years,

The Utility has experienced an overall reduction in water use, both potable and reclaimed, over the
last 10 years, Figure 2 illustrates this reduction in total water use from FY 2005 -06 through FY 2014-
15, The trend line emphasizes a continuous decline in water use even though the utility experienced
growth in the number of customers in that same time frame , During FY 2014-15, the single family
residential customer with a 5/8 x 3/4 inch water meter averages water use of 7,300 gallons per
month,

Budg et ary Po li cies adopted by th e Town Council in 2008. Sect ion C.l-Debt Capacity, Iss uance &
Management states th e following wi th r es pect t o debt serv ice coverage ratios:
"When utility r eve nue s are pledged as debt se rvice payments, th e To w n wi l l st riv e to maintain a 1.3
debt se rvice coverage ratio o r t he r equired rati o in t he b o nd ind enture (whichever is greater) to
ensu r e debt cove rage in t imes of revenue flu ctua ti on."
The Water Utility cur r ent ly pays d eb t service on a numb e r of outstanding debt is suance s and lo ans.
For the Series 2012 Senior Li en Water Reve nu e Bonds, the 2008, 2010 and 201 4 Water
Infra structure Financ e Authority (WI FA) Lo ans, water utility rev enu es are speci fi ca ll y pledged as the
r epay m ent sou r ce for these obligations at 1.3 tim es cove rage per th e Town's adopted financial
policy.
The remaining outstanding debt obligations of th e Water Utility are excise tax pledg ed obligations
m ea nin g that the Town's unres tricted sources o f sa les taxes, fine s, permit f ees and state shar ed
re ve nu es are pledged as the repayment sources f or th ese bonds in the bond indentures. Even
th o ugh th e bond in dentures pledge th ese excise taxes as th e rep ayme nt source, the Water Ut ility is
and w ill cont in ue to be res ponsibl e for th ese debt serv i ce payments . Ho weve r, since excise ta xes are
pled ged as cove r age, a calcu lated debt service cove rage r atio of 1.0 is app lied to avo id doub le
coverage whe n calc ulating the debt service coverage ratio for these excise t ax-backed bonds in th e
water r at es analy sis.
It is imp ortant to note th at the bond indentures for the excise ta x-backe d bonds requir e th at the
Town 's exc ise tax co ll ections each fi sca l yea r total at le ast 2.5 times th e annua l debt service
requireme nts in order to avoid having to fund a debt se rvi ce reserve fund . These cond itions have
been m et annually in th e past and are expected t o co ntinue in the future. Fo r FY 2014-15 th e debt
service coverage ratio was 10.49 for th e General Fund wh ich sub sta nti al ly exceeds the 2.5
requir ement.
Thi s meth odo logy of segregating the water utility revenue -p l edge d debt from the excise tax-pledged
debt in the rates analy sis process is an accepted practice in the indu st ry and has been r ev iewed by
the To wn's Finance Director and th e Town's fin ancia l adv iso rs wi th Stife l, Nicol aus & Company, In c.
The deb t se rvice coverage ratio is determined by dividing the annual net opera tin g revenue by th e
annual debt serv ice paym ents. Using th e method ology descr ib ed above is in acco rdance with th e
2008 policy and reduce s th e amount of the d ebt se rv ice coverage requ irement amount. Applying
thi s m eth odo logy has been key in minimizing water rate in creases.
Debt serv ice cove rag e for the Water Utility's outstanding se nior li en debt iss ua nces and loans in the
Preferr ed Fin ancia l Scenario is shown in Table 4 .

Cash Reserve Policy for Operating Fund
The Town of Oro Va ll ey Mayor and Council Water Po licie s we re adopted in 1996 . Fo llowin g th e
Comm iss io n recommendation, an amend e d policy was submitted to th e Town Council and was
subsequently adopted June 17, 20 15 . The amended policy may be found in Sect io n II.A.1.d. a nd
st at es "Th e Utility shall m ai nta in a cas h re serve in the Operating Fund of not less than 20 % of the

Other reven ue generated by the Utility consists of charges for services. Those charges for services
includes and intergovernmental agreement with the Pima County Wastewater Reclamation
Department to provide month ly billing serv ices . The intergovernmental agreement w i ll be subject to
renewal in FY 2018-19. It is projected that the reve nue wi ll increase by $6,800 representing a three
percent in crease upon renewal. Charges for service also include, but are not limited to, new service
establishment fees, late fees, reconnecti on fees, convenience fees, and p lan review fees . Charges
fo r services are projected to generate annua l revenue ranging from $684,200 to $691,000 .
Project ions for interest income are a cumulat ive total of $633,752 over the five -year per iod. A two
percent interest rate was assumed for each year in the project ion period . This interest rate is
consistent with the Town's financial planning .
Revenue Requirements
The following table is a summary of revenue requirements for the Op erating Fund that were used in
the financial analysis. These reve nue requ i rements do not include expenditures to be paid with GPF
revenue.

Total Expenditures $ 14,252,600 $14,745,651 $ 13,226,054 $ 13,974,334 $ 15,739,424
Project ed personne l costs include the addit ion of one new emp loyee in FY 2015-16, three and one
ha lf perc ent an nua l merit i ncrea ses and two percent annual increases in hea lth care costs. Th ese
proj ected increases are consistent w ith the General Fund's financial planning.
-9 -
The projected operations and maintenance (O&M) costs for both the potable and reclaim ed water
systems include inflationary increases of one percent annually. Th e inflation factors are consistent
with the General Fund's financial planning.
Power for pumping costs were segregated from the trad itional O&M costs because they are not
subject to annual inflationary increases. A 15 percent rate increa se by Tucson Electric Power was
projected in FY 2017-18. The Utility received authorization from the Town Council to pursue the
acquisition of excess electric power from the Arizona Power Authority. Thi s power will be wheeled
through Tucson Electric Power or the Utility will rec eiv e credits on the monthly bills. The Utility is
still in the early stages of negotiation; therefore, the amount of power savings the Utility will realize
has not ye t been determin ed and therefore not included in this analysis.
The Utility plan s to purchase groundwater extinguishment credits in FY 2015 -16 and FY 2016 -17 . The
analysis included $450,000 to purchase these cred its in each of these two fiscal year. The se credits
will be pl edged to the Groundwat er Allowance Account (GWA) to help maintain a balan ce in the
GWA that will facilitate growth in th e water service area.
CAP w hee lin g costs are the fees charged by Tu cso n Water to wheel our CAP water through their
recharge and recovery system. Th ese fees are fixed pursuant to an IGA and are subject t o
re negotiation in FY 2016-17. Based on the renegoti ated IGA, costs increase in FY 2017-18 due to
projected rate increase by Tu cson Water. Th e costs increase again in FY 2019 -20 due to an
additional delivery of 500 acre f eet of CAP water as allowed in th e IGA.
CAP water recharge costs represent costs to take delivery of the Utility's entire CAP water allotment
of 10,305 acre feet annually. Thi s wate r w ill be recharged in various r echa rge facilities including th e
Tucson Water's f ac il itie s. Costs ar e based on the rate schedule adopted by the CAP.
Projected capital outlay for ex isti ng syste m improvem en t s in this analysis includes the replacement
of approximately 5,000 water meters and installation of AMI equipm ent in th e Oro Valley water
service ar ea in FY 2015-16. Capital outlay also include s water main r ep lacements, pumpin g stat ion
replacements. well repl ace ments, ve hicl es, computer and sec urity equipment. The schedule for five-
year capital improvements may be found in Appendix D.
The meter replacement project is being finan ced w it h a loan from the Water Infrastructure Fin ance
Authority of Arizona (WIFA) and will be completed in FY 2015-16. Thi s loa n was approved by the
Town Council in January 2014. Debt service costs in crease in FY 2019-20 because of a larg e principal
payment due on the 2007 bonds. A small portion of the increase is due to the new debt projected to
occur in FY 2017-18 as des cr ibed o n page 5.
The complete five-year proj ec tion pro formas for the Preferred Fin ancia l Sce nario may be found in
Appendix A.
Groundwater Preservation Fee
The Groundwater Preservation Fee (GPF) was estab lish ed in 2003 to ge nerate revenue to finance
alternative water r eso urces, cap ital expend itures fo r infra st ructure neede d to deliver alternative
water to the Town and relat ed debt serv ice . Following the Commission recommendation, an
amended policy was submitted to the Town Council and was subsequently adopted June 17, 2015.
-10-
Th e amended policy may be found in Section II.A .1.g . of the Mayor and Counci l Water Po licie s and
states "Reve nu e from the Groundwater Pr ese r va tion Fees shall be us ed for renewabl e water capital
costs and associated debt; renewable water supplies and related debt; and for costs to wheel
Central Arizona Project water to the Town." This analysis includes 7S percent of the total wheeling
costs cha rg ed by Tucson Water being paid with GPF revenue. The rema i ning 25 percen t will
continue to be paid with water sa les revenue. There is no proposed increase in the GPF. Table 10
shows the GPF rates used in this analysis.

The GPF has a beginning cash balance of $3,306,394 in FY 2015 -16 and is projected to have an
ending cash balance of $791,389 in FY 2019 -20 . Although the GPF cash reserve is decreasing, this is
an app ropriate cash reserve amount for the GPF because there are no signifi ca nt increases in
expe nditure s. This i s due to consistent debt service payments and limited capital expe nditures
during the project ion period. The GPF cas h i s combined with Operating Fund to determ ine the
overall cash reserve balan ce of th e Operating Fund .

Development Impact Fee Funds
Alternative Water Resources Development Impact Fee Fund
The Altern ative Water Resources Develo pment Imp act Fee Fund (AWRDIF) had a cash ba lance of
$4,021,793 at the beginning of FY 2015 -16 and is projected to hav e $2,825,377 at the end of FY
2019-20 . The revenue sources for the AWRD IF Fund are from impact fees collected when a water
meter is purchased and from interest earned on cash balances. Interest in come is projected to be a
total of $559,965 for this analysis. A two percent interest rate was assumed for each year in the
projection period and is consistent with the Town's f i nancia l planning.
The revenue forecast was ba sed on new service units re lated to the number of new connections. A
service unit is the equiva lent of one sin gle family re sid en tial (SFR) 5/8 x 3/4-inch water meter. The
SFR serv ice units are equa l to the number of new connections. The other se rvice units are forecast
based on historic trends and pending developm ent projects w ithin the Town. Other service units
include commerc ial, multi-family and irrigation use s w ith the num ber of service units depending on
the meter sizes for each project.
Th e To w n Council adopted new impact fees that becam e effective July 1, 2014. The new impact fee
for a SFR 5/8 x 3/4-inch water mete r or one service un it is $4,045 . Tabl e 13 provides th e projected
growth in serv ice units and the revenue associated with that growth.

Potab le Water System Development Impact Fee Fund
The Potabl e Water System Deve lopment Impa ct Fee Fund (PWSDIF) had a cas h ba lance of
$4,800,153 at th e beginnin g of FY 20 15-16 and is projected to ha ve $6,407,674 at th e end of FY
2019-20. The revenue so urces for th e PWSDIF Fund are from impa ct fees co ll ec ted when a water ·
meter is purchase d and from inte rest earned on cas h ba lances. Inte rest in co me is proj ecte d t o be a
tota l of $580,5 43 for this analys is. A two percen t interes t rate was assume d for each year in the
proj ec tion period and is co nsiste nt w ith the Town's fin an cial plann i ng.
The re venue forecast was based on new service units related to th e number of new connect ions. A
service unit is th e eq ui va lent of o ne si ngle famil y re sid en ti al (SFR) 5/8 x 3/4-in ch wate r meter. The
SFR se rvice un it s are equa l to th e number of n ew co nn ec tions. Th e other serv ice un its are foreca st

Preferred Financial Scenario
Prior to developing financial forecasts, financial cons ideration s were eval.uated relating to proposed
future operating cos t s, significant short and long term cap ital expenditures, the Utility's existing
cash reserves, existing outstanding debt and the re l ated debt service payments. To develop a
Preferred Fin ancial Scenario, the goa ls of the Utility were to ensure that all existing rate setting
policies were met, cash reserves were utilized to minimize future debt and proposed rate in creases
would not result in rate shock.
Th e Water Utility has prepared a Preferred Financial Scenario. The Scenario generates the revenue
needed to maintain an adequate cash balance in all funds over the projected f ive-yea r period.
Add itionally, the Scenario uses both available cash and proposed new debt to fin ance capital
projects. The Scenario meets the debt service coverage requirements in each year of the projection
period. The Preferred Financia l Scenario includes projections for five years; however, water rates are
approved annually for the first year in the projection period. Th e Water Utility Commission and
Utility staff recommend approva l of this Preferred Financial Scenario.
The cash balance in the PWSDIF fund increases over the five year period while the cash balance in
the AWRDIF fund decreases as cash is used for capital projects. The cash balance will be imp ortant
in the future as the Town moves forward w ith increased deliveries of CAP water and const ru cting
potable water system infrastructure to meet the demands of new growth.
The f inan cial projections for the Operating Fund, AWRDIF Fund and the PWSDIF Fund were
combined to eva luate th e overa ll debt service coverage at the end of each fiscal year. Analysis
indi cates that, under the Preferred Financial Scenario, the Utility will meet th e debt serv ice coverage
requirement estab li shed by the Mayor and Council Water Polices and bond covenants for all five
years. Pro formas for the Preferred Financial Scenario may be found in Appendix A. The
assumptions used to develop the financial projections contained in the Preferred Financial Scenario
may be found in Appendix E.
Recommendation on Rates, Fees & Charges
After reviewing the analysis of the three funds and their respective revenue requirements conta in ed
in the Preferred Financial Scenario for FY 2015-16, the Water Utility Commission and Utility staff
recommend the following:
~ In crease in the potable and reclaimed commodity rates
~ In crease in the potable and reclaimed construct ion water rates
~ In crease in construct ion meter deposits
~ No increase in the monthly base rates for potable and reclaimed water
~ No change in the potable and r eclaimed Groundwater Preservation Fee (GPF)
Table 17 illustrates the proposed water rates for a sing le family residential customer with a 5/8 x 3/4
inch water meter. Approximately 87 percent of the utility's customers fall into this category. Water
rates of other wate r providers in the region are in cluded for comparison of the cost per 1,000
ga ll ons.

The Utility charges fee s for services rend er ed in an amount designed to recove r the cost to provide
th at se r v ice. These fees and charges are evaluated annua ll y to determine if any adjustments ar e
n ee ded. It is recommended that th e sec urity deposit for a construction meter be increas ed to
recover material costs associated with r epl ac in g the meter and backflow dev ice . These meters are
use d by contractors to obtain construct ion water. When the meter is return ed, th e se curity deposit
is r efunded in its entirety. Occas iona ll y the meter is returned damaged. If th ere is damage, the
security depos it is then used to repair o r replace the meter. Detailed cost information may be found

SUBJECT:
PUBLIC HEARING: ORDINANCE NO. (O)16-01, REZONING AN EXISTING 26.3 ACRE TOWNHOME
DEVELOPMENT LOCATED AT THE NORTHEAST AND SOUTHEAST CORNERS OF MOUNTAIN
VISTA DRIVE AND ORACLE ROAD FROM R1-144 TO VERDE CATALINA TOWNHOMES PLANNED
AREA DEVELOPMENT (PAD)
RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning and Zoning Commission recommends approval.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The purpose of this application is to create zoning standards that reflect the site conditions within the
existing Verde Catalina Townhome 43-year-old development. The property’s R1-144 (3.3 acre lots)
zoning designation is not consistent with the existing lot sizes which range from 3,200 to 5,000 square
feet. Due to recurring zoning issues related to building expansions, the Verde Catalina Townhomes
Homeowners Association (HOA) proposes to rezone the 26.3 acre subdivision from R1-144 to PAD.
The proposed rezoning will accomplish the following:
Create development standards that match the existing site conditions within a townhome
development
Eliminate the need for variances to allow reduced building setbacks for common building
expansions (e.g., patios, carports, room additions, etc.)
Deliver on the expectation to establish more appropriate zoning when the site was annexed
Maintain the residential characteristics of the subdivision by not allowing: 1) new uses 2) expanded
boundaries 3) taller buildings and 4) additional lots
The proposed PAD is provided as Exhibit “B” in Attachment 1. The Location Map is provided in
Attachment 2.
The proposed rezoning to PAD was considered by the Planning and Zoning Commission on November
5, 2015, and December 1, 2015. At the conclusion of the public hearings, the Commission recommended
approval based on the findings that the proposed rezoning is consistent with the General Plan and will
provide standards which reflect the existing townhome development.
BACKGROUND OR DETAILED INFORMATION:
The Verde Catalina Townhome subdivision was built under Pima County’s jurisdiction in 1972. The
The Verde Catalina Townhome subdivision was built under Pima County’s jurisdiction in 1972. The
property was subsequently annexed into Oro Valley and the zoning translated to R1-144 (3.3 acre lots).
As required by state law, this R1-144 translational zoning reflected the Pima County Suburban Ranch
(SR) zoning which existed in the County upon annexation, but did not provide for the existing townhome
development on the property, which consists of approximately 3,200 to 5,000 square foot lots. The
translational zoning has resulted in a legal non-conforming development.
To resolve the discrepancy in the zoning versus land use, the homeowners association (HOA) has
submitted this request to develop zoning standards to reflect the existing site conditions (e.g. smaller lot
sizes and building setbacks) and allow typical building expansions (e.g. porches, carports, awnings, etc.).
The attached PAD reflects the proposed standards for the development, which were patterned after the
Town’s R-4 (Townhome Residential) zoning district.
Current Site Conditions
26.3 acres
149 attached townhome units
Density: 5.67 homes per acre
Zoning is R1-144 (3.33 acre minimum lot size)
Minimum lot size: 3,200 square feet
Building setbacks: 0’ – 50’
Building height: 18’, 1-story
250 square feet of uncovered living area in the rear yard
Land Use Context:
The existing 149 units were built under Pima County’s jurisdiction in 1972. The surrounding land uses,

Approvals-to-Date:

2003: Property annexed into Oro Valley
2003: Translational zoning from Pima County SR to Oro Valley R1-144
2011 - 2015: Variances granted for awning / building additions
Proposed Planned Area Development
The proposed perimeter and building setbacks are similar to the R-4 zoning standards. Several
modifications were made to address specific issues related to lot size, site coverage and limiting building
height to 18’, one-story.
General Plan Conformance
The current density meets the existing General Plan land use designation of High Density Residential,
which allows 5 or more homes per acre.
The proposed rezoning is subject to the PAD criteria outlined in the General Plan. These criteria along
with staff comments are provided in Attachment 5. In summary, as the development was constructed 43
years ago, many of the criteria are not applicable to this PAD.
Zoning Code Conformance
Based on the timing of development, the PAD is in conformance with all of the applicable findings
outlined in Section 24.4.H of the Oro Valley Zoning Code. The staff analysis of these findings is provided
in Attachment 6.
Public Participation
Two neighborhood meetings were held, the first on October 8, 2014, with five residents in attendance
and the second on October 28, 2014, with nine residents in attendance. The discussion at the
neighborhood meetings focused on the purpose of the rezoning application and proposed development
standards. The neighborhood meeting summary notes are provided as Attachment 7.
It is important to note that the proposed development standards have been reviewed and endorsed by
the HOA, and presented to residents at several HOA meetings. To date, staff has received two letters of
support from the HOA (Attachment 8), and one letter of concern (Attachment 9).
Planning and Zoning Commission Review
The proposed rezoning to Planned Area Development was heard by the Planning and Zoning
Commission on November 5, 2015, and December 1, 2015. The discussion at the public hearings
focused on:
Development standards of the R-4 zoning and the proposed Planned Area Development
Permitted building expansions
History of the development
At the conclusion of the public hearings, the Commission recommended approval based on the finding
that the proposed rezoning is consistent with the General Plan and will provide standards which reflect
the existing townhome development. The staff report and draft minutes from the Planning and Zoning
Commission meetings are provided as Attachments 10 and 11, respectively.

Verde Catalina Townhomes Planned Area Development
B. History
The existing townhomes were developed in the 1970’s and under Pima
County’s Suburban Ranch (S-R) zoning district. This zoning district is
intended for large single-family residential lots. At the time of construction,
the townhomes did not meet both the minimum building setbacks and lot
size requirements prescribed by Pima Count’s S-R zoning designation.
In 2003, the property was annexed into the Town of Oro Valley and
translated to the Town’s R1-144 (Single-Family/144,000 sq. ft. minimum
lot size) zoning district. The new zoning district did not resolve the
previous zoning issues (i.e. building setbacks and lot sizes) because state
law required that the Town zoning (R1-144) be equivalent to the property’s
former zoning classification (S-R) under Pima County.
The previous land use approvals for the property include:
Pima County
C08-71-5 – Subdivision Plat

Ordinance No. (O) 03-09 – Annexation
Ordinance No. (O) 03-32 – Translational Zoning

Town of Oro Valley
Development and Infrastructure Services
Verde Catalina Townhomes Planned Area Development
Findings Analysis
Attachment 6
Staff Comment: The proposed Planned Area Development pertains to an existing townhome
development constructed in 1972. The project has been analyzed and conforms to the required
findings of the Planned Area Development zoning district.
H. Findings – Specific and Required
As a basis of approval or conditional approval for a PAD District, the Planning and Zoning Commission and
Town Council shall make the following required findings. Any or all of the specific findings are optional and shall
be applied on a case-by-case basis.
1. Required Findings
The required findings function to assure that the purposes of the PAD zoning have been accomplished
through a given PAD proposal. In order to approve a PAD, the Town shall find that:
a. The PAD development is in accordance with the adopted Oro Valley General Plan and a minimum
of eighty percent (80%) of the applicable General Plan criteria, as outlined in subsection G of this
section, are satisfied.
b. The PAD demonstrates innovative design in site planning.
c. The PAD fosters safe and efficient use of the land.
d. The development facilitates efficient design of public services and all infrastructure.
e. The development provides for adequate drainage and reduction of flood damage.
f. The PAD encourages reduction in automobile trip lengths and trip consolidation as measured
against development under conventional zoning.
Oro Valley, it’s in our nature.
11000 N. La Cañada Drive, Oro Valley, Arizona 85737
www.orovalleyaz.gov | phone: (520) 229‐4800 | fax: (520) 742‐1022
g. Public access to mass transit, pedestrian and bicycle circulation systems is provided and designed
to assure that pedestrians can move safely and easily to properties and activities in the site and in the
neighborhood.
h. The design and arrangement of elements of the site plan (e.g., building construction, orientation,
and placement; selection and placement of landscape materials, and/or use of renewable energy
sources, etc.) contribute to the overall reduction of energy use by the project as measured against
development under conventional zoning.
i. The design and arrangement of elements of the site plan minimize adverse impacts to the existing
natural topography, natural water courses, existing desirable vegetation, and views.
j. The elements of the site plan display a rational relationship (e.g., buildings, circulation, open space,
and landscaping) between land uses for the mutual benefit of the community and neighborhood.
k. The PAD protects, in a manner equal or superior to existing zoning, existing neighborhoods from
harmful encroachment by intrusive or disruptive development.
l. Overall, the entire PAD represents an improvement to living, work, and recreational conditions
superior to that which would be produced by development under conventional zoning districts.
2. Specific Findings
In addition to required findings, the Town may wish to make supplementary specific findings relevant to
individual PAD applications. Specific findings may include, but are not limited to, the following:
a. The development is compatible with, and sensitive to, the immediate environment of the site and
neighborhood relative to density, scale, bulk, and building height.
b. Conflicts that exist between the proposed development and the surrounding land uses have been
effectively mitigated in the planned area development.
c. The project is designed so that the additional traffic generated does not have significant adverse
impact on surrounding development, or the development has detailed plans to mitigate the adverse
conditions.
d. The project contains known areas of natural or geological hazard (e.g., unstable or potentially
unstable slopes, flood, etc.) or soil conditions unfavorable to urban development, and special
Oro Valley, it’s in our nature.
11000 N. La Cañada Drive, Oro Valley, Arizona 85737
www.orovalleyaz.gov | phone: (520) 229‐4800 | fax: (520) 742‐1022
precautions have been taken to overcome those limitations or these areas have been set aside from
development.
e. The project will conform to applicable local, State, and Federal water quality standards including,
but not limited to, erosion and sedimentation, runoff control and prohibited solid wastes and hazardous
substances.
f. The proposed land uses and activities will be conducted so that noise generated shall not exceed
the minimum performance levels established herein. Detailed plans for the elimination of objectionable
noises may be required before the issuance of a building permit.
g. All developments will be connected to the public sewer system unless otherwise stipulated in the
PAD document.
h. The street and parking system provides for the smooth, safe, and convenient movement of vehicles
both on and off the site.
i. Each active recreational area is suitably located and accessible to the area it is intended to serve
and adequate screening is provided to ensure privacy and quiet for neighboring uses.
j. The development is adjacent to an existing or approved public park or public open space area, and
provision has been made in the site plan to avoid interfering with public access to that area.
k. All signs in the project are in compliance with the provisions of Section 28.1.
l. Solar orientation and design concepts are incorporated in the PAD.
m. The PAD provides for safe pedestrian and bicycle access to schools and parks.

Subject:Catalina re zoning from R1-144 to PAD
I think this is an opportunity to convert this property to what was initially intended. Because of the number of
variance requests over the years to enable home owners to make sense of such small lot availability with
standard living requirements we ought not to leave it largely in place. Looking back as far as I can with what
information I have it seems to me that the Town had in mind more rural lots, some horse properties. I feel this
area as developed is a blight on an otherwise attractive living area, and we intend to keep that blight aspect in
place by allowing an even more crowded, unattractive community without recreational space, inadequate
parking arrangements or personal privacy. There certainly is no attempt at transitions between properties to
allow for personal avocations or family use.

Verde Catalina Townhomes Homeowners Association
Rezoning from R1-144 to Planned Area Development (PAD)
Northeast and Southeast corners of Mountain Vista Drive and
Oracie Road
Approve requested Rezoning from R1-144 to Planned Area
Development (PAD)
The purpose of this application is to create zoning standards that reflect the existing
conditions within a 43 year old town horne development. Due to the zoning issues related to
building expansions, the Verde Catalina Townhomes Homeowners Association proposes to
rezone a 26.3 acre subdivision from R1-144 to Planned Area Development, located on the
northeast and southeast corners of Mountain Vista Drive and Oracle Road.
The Planning and Zoning Commission held the first of two required public hearings on
October 5, 2015. The draft minutes from the October 5th Planning and Zoning Commission
meeting are provided as Attachment 1. No action was taken at that hearing .. The discussion
at the meeting focused on:
• Development standards of the R-4 zoning and the proposed Planned Area Development
• Permitted building expansions
• History of the development
This agenda item is for discussion and possible recommendation to Town Council.
BACKGROUND:
The Verde Catalina townhome subdivision was built under Pima County's jurisdiction in
1972. The property was subsequently annexed into Oro Valley and the zoning translated to
R1-144 (3.3 acre lots). This R1-144 translational zoning reflected the Pima County
Suburban Ranch (SR) zoning which existed in the County upon annexation, but did not
reflect the existing town home development on the property, which consists of less than
4,000 square foot townhome lots.
OV914-005 Verde Catalina PAD Page 2 of5
Planning and Zoning Commission Staff Report
To resolve the conflict between the large lot R1-144 zoning and the small lot townhome use
of the property, staff has been working with the Verde Catalina town homes homeowners
association to develop standards for the existing project which reflect the small lots on of
the property. These standards have been reviewed by the homeowners association and
presented to the residents at several meetings.
The proposed rezoning would use the Planned Area Development (PAD) zoning district
with tailored development standards for townhome development. The proposed rezoning
would not allow 1) new uses 2) expanded boundaries 3) taller buildings and 4) additional
lots. The proposed PAD would only allow additions and remodels to the existing
townhomes. The homeowners association has requested and endorses the proposed PAD
standards.
The Location Map is provided as Attachment 2. The proposed Planned Area Development
(PAD) standards are provided as Attachment 3.
APPROVALS TO DATE:
• 1972 Verde Catalina Townhomes plat recorded and subdivision constructed
• 2003 Property annexed into Oro Valley
• 2003 Translational zoning from Pima County SR to Oro Valley R1-144
• 2011, 2013 and 2015 Variances granted for awning / building additions
Land Use Context
The existing 149 units were built under Pima County's jurisdiction in 1972. The zoning and
surrounding land uses are provided below and depicted on the General Plan (Attachment 4)
and the Zoning Map (Attachment 5):

DISCUSSION I ANALYSIS:
Prior to annexation in 2003, the property was zoned Suburban Ranch (SR) under Pima
County's jurisdiction. State law requires that the Town change or "translate" the zoning on
the annexed property from its original zoning designation to the closest comparable Oro
OV914-00S Verde Catalina PAD Page 3 of 5
Planning and Zoning Commission Staff Report
Valley zoning designation. The translational zoning cannot permit greater densities or
intensities than existed under County jurisdiction. Although the property contained an
existing townhome development with less than 4,000 square foot lots, the Town translated
the zoning to R1-144 (3.3 acres lots), to meet the requirements of State law.
At the time of annexation it was noted in the staff report that a subsequent rezoning would
be required to better match zoning standards to the existing development. The subsequent
zoning case was never processed and the property has remained zoned R1-144. This has
resulted in a number of variance cases being supported and approved over the past
several years to allow for small building additions which do not conform to the larger
setback requirements of the R 1-144 zoning.
To resolve the discrepancy in the zoning versus land use, the planning staff has been
working with the homeowners association to develop zoning standards to reflect the
existing site conditions (e.g., smaller lot sizes and building setbacks) and allow typical room
additions (e.g., porches, carports, awnings, etc.). The attached PAD reflects the proposed
standards for development, which were patterned after the Town's R-4 (Townhome
Residential) zoning district.
Planned Area Development Policy & Finding Analysis
Section 24.4 of the Zoning Code provides the requirements for new PADs, including
General Plan conformance and specific criteria required for PAD approval. The following is
a discussion of the proposed underlying zoning district and proposed modifications.
I. UNDERLYING ZONING DISTRICT
According to the Zoning Code, all PADs shall include underlying zoning designations. The
underlying, or base, zoning districts are to be derived from existing Oro Valley zones and
reflect the most logical designation in consideration of the proposed land use for a
particular parcel. Further, "The development standards of the underlying zoning districts will
prevail where the PAD does not specifically modify said standards."
The PAD proposes a single zoning district based on a modified R-4 (Townhouse ReSidential)
zone. Following is the purpose of the zoning district:
• The R-4 district is intended to provide for relatively low-density development having
individual ownership and built-in privacy, either in the form of party wall construction
or enclosed courtyards.
The PAD proposes to include all those uses permitted in the R-4 zoning district. These
uses are consistent with a residential town home development.
II. MODIFICATIONS TO DEVELOPMENT
According to the Zoning Code, "Modifications to the development standards of the
underlying district may be permitted if they are found to offer a desirable improvement over
the conditions produced by conventional zoning standards.
OV914-005 Verde Catalina PAD Page 4 of5
Planning and Zoning Commission Staff Report
The proposed PAD was patterned using the Town's Townhome Residential R-4 as a base
zoning. Modifications were made to reflect the existing conditions by providing the following
development standards:
Lot Front Side Rear Between Building Coverage Perimeter
Size Buildings Height R1 District
3,400 0 0 0 10 feet 18 feet See 25 feet
sq. ft. Notes * , .. Expansions Into front yard may be permitted by Planning and Zoning Administrator
'Each Lot must maintain 250 square feet of uncovered living space in the rear yard
Perimeter (all others)
10 feet
The proposed perimeter and building setbacks are generally consistent with the R-4 zoning
standards, with several modifications to address specific issues related to site coverage.
III. GENERAL PLAN ANALYSIS
The subject property is designated High Density Residential (5+ homes per acre) on the
General Plan Future Land Use Map. The proposed rezoning to Planned Area Development
is consistent with this land use designation.
The proposed rezoning is subject to the PAD criteria outlined in the General Plan. These
criteria along with staff comment are provided on Attachment 6. In summary, as the
development is an existing project built under County jurisdiction prior to adoption of the
General Plan, many of the criteria are not applicable to a new PAD which are intended for
an existing development.
IV. ZONING ANALYSIS
The proposed PAD is subject to the specific findings outlined Section 24.4.H of the Oro
Valley Zoning Code. The staff analysis of these findings is provided on Attachment 7. In
summary, Zoning Code provides that the specific findings are optional and shall be applied
on a case-by-case basis.
The proposed PAD pertains to an existing townhome development constructed in 1972.
Based on the timing of development, the PAD is general conformance with all of the
applicable specific findings.
PUBLIC PARTICIPATION:
Neighborhood Meetings
Two formal neighborhood meetings were held on October 8,2014 and October 28,2014
with 5 residents and 9 residents attending respectfully. Discussion topics focused on the
purpose of the PAD rezoning and possible additions which could be made to the existing
units as a result. The summary notes from the neighborhood meeting are provided as
Attachment 8. Staff also was in attendance at several homeowners association meeting
where the proposal was explained to residents within this community. Staff has worked
extensively with the Verde Catalina Homeowners Association, who has provided a letter of
support (Attachment 9). To date, staff has received one letter of concern (Attachment 10).

Planning and Zoning Commission Staff Report
SUMMARY I CONCLUSION
The proposed rezoning to Planned Area Development (PAD) will provide zoning standards
which reflect the existing site conditions. The PAD will resolve a long standing issue related
to inconsistent zoning standards on the property. A number of variances have been
supported and approved in recent years, illuminating the need for the rezoning to resolve
the discrepancy and allow for future additions to these units consistent with typical
townhome development standards.
RECOMMENDATION:
As the proposed Planned Area Development meets the required findings of Section 24.4.H,
is consistent with the General Plan land use map and will provide standards which reflect
existing development patterns, it is recommended that the Planning and Zoning
Commission recommend approval of the requested rezoning from R1-144 to Verde
Catalina Townhomes Planned Area Development (PAD).
SUGGESTED MOTIONS:
I move to recommend approval of a rezoning from R1-144 to Verde Catalina Townhomes
Planned Area Development (PAD), based on the findings that it is consistent with Section
24.4.H, the land use map of the General Plan and will provide standards which reflect
existing development patterns
OR
I move to recommend denial of the Verde Catalina Townhomes Planned Area Development,
as the request does not meet ____________________________ __

Chairman Rodman opened the public hearing.
Lynn Romero, Oro Valley resident, commented that her property is adjacent to Verde
Catalina Town Homes. If the Verde Catalina Town Homes are allowed a 30 foot
extension it will encroach her property. Ms. Romero stated she would need a variance
for a storage unit on her property. She is opposed if the Zoning would allow an
expansion abutting her property.
Mr. Arellano responded that the zoning would not permit expansions beyond the current
property boundaries.
Chairman Rodman closed the public hearing.
Jim Seppala, Verde Catalina Townhomes Rezoning Chairman, representing the
applicant, commented that the Verde Catalina townhomes were built under Pima
County and later annexed into Oro Valley. Oro Valley zoning does not reflect the
existing townhome development on the property, which consists of less than 4,000
square foot townhome lots. Some of the residents of Verde Catalina Townhomes have
asked for a variance and received them. The residents as well as Mr. Seppala is asking
the Commission for approval.
Commissioner Barrett asked Mr. Seppala if the proposed Planned Area Development,
allows residents the control that is needed to prevent the variances.

Mr. Seppala responded that it would.
As this was the first of two public hearings on this item, no action was taken by the

CALL TO AUDIENCE
Bill Adler, Oro Valley resident, stated he believes strongly that the Town of Oro Valley
should rely on planning principals rather than personal judgment. Communications that
are written from staff of the Development and Infrastructure Services to the Commission
are filled with ambiguities, statements and politics rather than planning principals. Most
of the significant issues having to do with planning and the Town of Oro Valley have
been initiated by residents. He expects more from the Planning Commission,
Conceptual Design Review Board, staff and people we elect to represent the
community. These people should be held to a higher standard. This involves relying
on what's been adopted, what's required by code and what's been ratified by the
Attachment 11
December 1, 2015 Planning and Zoning Commission Page 2 of 8
citizens of Oro Valley. So many decisions are made based on feelings and quite frankly
he doesn't care how you feel. He cares about compliance and what makes sense in the
community. The trust in government is at the lowest level he has ever seen and he
doesn't know if it's repairable.

Chairman Rodman opened the public hearing.
Bill Adler, Oro Valley resident, stated that there have been a number of
variances before the Board of Adjustment in this community. The intention was to have
this property develop similar to the property immediately to the east. He believes this
property should be rezoned with what the Town intends to do in the future. At some
point in time the Town of Oro Valley is going to deal with redevelopment. There will be
no more property available for development and we will have to deal with trying to select
property to be redeveloped. This property would be a good candidate for
redevelopment, it is a blight on the community and has demonstrated this through the
variances requested.
Chairman Rodman closed the public hearing.
MOTION: A motion was made by Vice-Chairman Leedy and seconded by
Commissioner Hitt to recommend approval of a rezoning from R1-144 to Verde Catalina
Townhomes Planned Area Development (PAD), based on the findings that it is
consistent with Section 24.4.H, the land use map of the General Plan and will provide
standards which reflect existing development patterns.

- Summary and Recommendation
Vice-Chair Leedy questioned whether the Town or staff at any time take a
position of advocacy on how best to overcome public opposition when meeting with
applicants and/or developers or/and does staff at any time take a position of advocacy
with members of the community.
Mr. Daines responded that staff strives to remain neutral in neighborhood
meetings. The goal in conducting neighborhood meetings is to ensure fair and open
dialogue.
Commissioner Hurt questioned whether the Town or staff suggest facilitators when
there is an impasse or is the facilitation done by staff.
Bayer Vella, Planning Manager, responded that the common practice of facilitation is
provided by staff. There have been very limited examples where a professional
facilitator has been brought in. If the facilitator does not have a basic understanding of
planning principals, it's a very tough spot to be in.
Attachment 11
December 1, 2015 Planning and Zoning Commission Page 5 of 8
Commissioner Hurt stated that although staff is neutral at neighborhood meetings,
ultimately staff will make a recommendation on the case.
Mr. Vella responded that it's always a challenge even though staff does their best to
be neutral at neighborhood meetings. Staff will ultimately make a recommendation and
if that recommendation happens to be in favor of the developer, that does leave
an impression with many of the neighbors that staff favors the
developer. This demonstrates the fine line we walk and it's a very challenging one.
Vice-Chair Leedy voiced his concern with the misperception that staff, this Commission
and Town Council is a rubber stamp for applicants in this community. Mr. Leedy
believes that perception is in large part if not entirely a function of a lack of knowledge of
the number of applicants or applications that come before the Town that never see the
light of day with respect to a staff report, an action from this Commission or an
action from Town Council. Would this be an accurate statement?
Mr. Danies responded that many times a developer will come in and have a pre-
application meeting or their first neighborhood meeting. What they hear at the
neighborhood meeting determines if they move forward with application. Not all
applications move beyond that first neighborhood meeting.
Chairman Rodman voiced his concern with the Policy and Procedures, 4.c.4: small
group meetings between the applicant and neighborhoods and/or specific groups of
residents. Chairman Rodman suggested clarification that the policy applies to small
group meetings arranged by the Town staff.
Chairman Rodman opened the public hearing.
Dave Perry, Oro Valley resident and President and CEO of the Oro Valley Chamber of
Commerce, believes the most fundamental problem the business community has with
neighborhood meetings and with the process as a whole is that it takes too long. So he
hopes whatever is done has the effect of reducing the length of time it takes to get
something done while fully involving the public and arriving at mutual agreed upon
outcomes. We do need better public noticing for proposed zoning changes and
neighborhood meetings. He liked some of what he saw here tonight with bigger
signs. We need to do a better job with broader media notification of meetings and
events. Mr. Perry thinks we still need to be selective at the discretion of staff about use
that media when appropriate. Mr. Perry suggested using "The Vista", which arrives in
our water bill every month. One of the questions before you is if the notification should
be widened from the current 1,000 - 600 square foot notification requirement, he doesn't
believe this should happen. He suggest a creation of a primer, something that is
broadly outlined but can be modified to specific cases that describes the current
proposal. Let’s put the valid issues in front of the people right off the bat, because when
Attachment 11
December 1, 2015 Planning and Zoning Commission Page 6 of 8
we get to the end the valid issues are raised. Right sizing is important, something
deserve a lot of attention, detail, notification and meetings but some things don't. It's
important that staff have the option of making some of those kinds of judgments. Staff
does an outstanding job at balancing the applicant’s interests and the interests of
neighbors that often don't have any idea what is happening. Should we think about a
member of staff being assigned on a case by case basis as an ombudsman? Someone
who is not directly working with the developer, someone who understands the code,
understands the issues and can work with those people in the public.
Bill Adler, Oro Valley resident, commented that in terms of the Standing Operating
Policy (SOP), he has always felt that the content and structure of the educational
meeting should be part of the ordinance. There is nothing in the staff proposal that has
to do with conditional approval. The ability for the community to add conditions of
approval is central and this ordinance has to make a statement in regards to this. The
community has the right to understand and staff has an ethical obligation to give the
community the information, if it takes longer than the allotted time, tough. Staff is either
going to honor this obligation or they are not. Mr. Adler commented that what works is
people being knowledgeable and trusting government.
Shirl Lamonna, Oro Valley resident, commented that she feels that everybody has
property rights, not just the developers. There is absolutely no guarantees that when a
developer comes in that he has to be given the authority to have his property rezoned or
whatever it might be. In Oro Valley there is no such thing as being fairly balanced, the
developers clearly have the upper hand on what goes on with development in this Town
and it's sad that the constituents don't have better education. Ms. Lamonna encourages
the neighborhood meeting process so constituents can learn about the issues. She
thinks it's important that when staff speaks to the constituents that all the facts are
presented to them. Another concern is Listserv not having a large number of people
receiving notifications, as well as people do not automatically go to the website for
information. The Town's website is not user friendly and needs some
improvement. Ms. Lamonna went on to question whether the general plan signs use
five inch letters as required by code.
Don Bristow, Oro Valley resident, commented that he agrees with Mr. Adler. Mr.
Bristow commented that he has attended a number of these meetings and the public
walks away still feeling uneducated. To expect the citizens to be as educated about the
codes and regulations as the developer who hires outside professionals is a ridiculous
consideration. The citizens expect to be educated by the Town but walk way being let
down. Mr. Bristow's concern with the proposed zoning code amendment and staff
deciding when and if the meeting format will be changed is taking away from
the process from what it used to be. Mr. Bristow agrees with the previous speaker
about the Town website needing improvement, it is harder and harder to find
Attachment 11
December 1, 2015 Planning and Zoning Commission Page 7 of 8
things. The language in the small group meeting policy needs to be cleaned up, the
language is conflicting. Another concern is that everything is neutral is untrue.
Chairman Rodman closed the public hearing.
Mr. Daines responded to the public speaker's questions as follows:
When a question about the development proposal arises at a neighborhood meeting,
staff refers the question to the applicant. In a lot a cases, especially at the first meeting,
staff hasn't had the opportunity to review the application, and may be learning about it
for the first time at the meeting. It is the applicant's application and it is their
responsibility to answer the questions related to what they are proposing.
Staff indicates that they regularly reflect resident concerns in the conditions of approval
or special area policies that ultimately get recommended by staff to the Commission and
Town Council.
Staff tries to respond to the diversity of issues involved in large cases. You might have
one area that is focused on one aspect like lot size and another area that is completely
looking at something different like commercial uses.
In terms of education, staff does not just place a stack of handouts on the back
table. Staff reviews the development standards and makes sure that residents
understand what is being proposed by the developer.
In terms of Staff selecting certain policies, there are over 200 policies in the General
Plan and staff is trying to make that simpler on the residents by providing the applicable
policies to the request.
In terms of the level of information, neighborhood meeting is conducted in 1.5
hours. Staff takes 30 minutes on the presentation and the applicant takes another 30
minutes that leaves the balance of time to hear from our residents. Some of the
information gets summarized in an effort to get to what's really important and hear from
