Town of Oro Valley
11000 North La Canada Drive DATE: 2/17/2023
Oro Valley, AZ 85737
PROJECT #: 21abbol
PROJECT: Annexation Request APN 219-49-003A
Dear Mr. Cornelison,
I am writing to request annexation of the approximately 36-acre parcel at the southwest corner of La Canada Drive and
Moore Road. The property meets all of the dimensional requirements for annexation, as well as a number of the goals
and guidelines from the Town's Annexation Strategy: „,— .
1. "Pursue the filling out and squaring off of the Town
limits. Strive toward a configuration for the Town limits
which eliminates County islands and peninsulas and
yields an identifiable and manageable boundary for the
Town."
✓ This property, which is circled in red on the map
to the right, is a County peninsula, and so
annexing it will square off the Town limits. The
properties to the north, east, and south were all
annexed in the late 198o's. The Town's last
significant annexation was La Cholla Airpark,
which is just to the northwest of this property.
2. Areas to be considered shall be prioritized as to the
quantifiable benefit to the Town.
✓ Unlike all surrounding properties, which are already developed, this infill acreage has yet to yield
development impact fees. Once developed, those residents will increase the Town's share of State
shared revenue proceeds. Additionally, being at the corner of two major collector roadways, appropriate
development of this property will facilitate efficient use of the Town's significant investment in nearby
infrastructure.
3. Require the submittal of a fiscal impact analysis for both undeveloped (rural) and developed properties, the level
of detail and contents of which may vary with the intensity or complexity of the proposed or existing use of the
land. Such analysis is required, regardless of who initiates the annexation process.
✓ Based on the current development concept showing 34 custom home sites, this neighborhood is
expected to generate approximately $449K in development impact fees to OV (plus $142K to Pima
County for sewer connections), and ongoing state shared revenue of approximately $4oK annually at
current rates.

20232550276 Page 6 of 33
PROJECT #: 21abbol low DATE: 2/17/2023
4. Future annexations of the Town shall be generally consistent with the policies and the planning area of the Town's
adopted General Plan.
✓ This proposed neighborhood will follow the existing General Plan future land use designations. No
General Plan amendment is proposed.
5. The Oro Valley Planning and Zoning Commission shall review any proposed annexation outside the General Plan
Planning Area. The Commission shall forward a recommendation to the Town Council within 3o days of the initial
hearing on the proposed annexation.
✓ This property is within the General Plan Planning Area, indicating that the property is in an area that
influences growth in Oro Valley. The implication is that the Town should actively pursue ensuring
development of such properties is compatible with, or conforms to, the Town's vision and development
regulations.
6. Provide the community with a wide range of services, amenities, shopping and dining opportunities and housing
types that meet the needs of current and future residents.
✓ High -quality, relatively low -density housing forms a significant portion of Oro Valley's suburban fabric.
Despite recent economic softening, demand for that staple segment of the local housing market remains
strong, and is expected to continue.
The Town's Annexation Strategy document provides the following criteria for prioritizing annexation opportunities and
requests:
A. The Town's ability to provide the full range of Town services and facilities, and the ability for the area to financially
support those services.
✓ As an infill property, extensive infrastructure and public services are already in close proximity to the
property, minimizing the cost of providing them to future residents of this property:
• Frontage on two major collector roadways with sidewalks and shared -use paths.
• OV Water mains within two adjacent rights -of -way.
• A sewer manhole in an adjacent right-of-way.
• Within bicycling distance of Vistoso Trails Nature Preserve, Honey Bee Canyon Park, Honey
Bee Archaeological Preserve, the Oro Valley Community and Recreation Center, Golf
Courses, and Naranja Town Park.
B. The potential of the area to accommodate job growth.
✓ The General Plan designates this property for relatively low -density residential development, so job
creation other than home -based businesses wouldn't be appropriate onsite. However, increasing the
Town's stock of high -quality housing opportunities always indirectly benefits job growth.
C. The opportunity to control urban growth using Town development standards in areas where future development
is likely.
✓ The property owner knows that the project could be developed in Pima County approximately as
proposed. However, Oro Valley's development regulations and quality branding are superior, so we
respectfully request annexation.

D. The importance of the area in terms of key multimodal transportation or open space corridors.
2/17/2023
✓ A significant wash and trail alignment run through the center of the property. Annexing into the Town will
ensure that those amenities are protected during the development process.
E. Creation of logical Town boundaries and service areas.
✓ As discussed in Item #1 above, this annexation will eliminate a County peninsula and help square off the
Town's boundary. It is logical that the Town control development at all four corners of the recently
approved roundabout intersection of La Canada and Moore.
F. The perceived level of support for annexation by affected property owners/residents.
✓ With only one owner covering such a relatively large parcel, this annexation request comes with t00%
support of the affected property owners.
G. Consistency with the Town's Your Voice Our Future General Plan goals and policies.
,54•D. - The people of Oro Valley strive for a community with a wide range of services, amenities, shopping and
dining opportunities and housing types that meet the needs of current and future residents.
✓ Continued strong demand for high quality, high value housing in Oro Valley indicates a continuing "need"
of current and future residents.
3.5.E5. -Support annexations that are economically beneficial to the Town while also considering the impacts to
residents and the social, aesthetic and environmental quality of the Town.
✓ The brief economic benefit calculations offered above demonstrate half of the economic benefit
equation. The other half relates to the cost of providing services, which is also a positive indicator in this
case due to the abundant existing infrastructure available to this infill property.
✓ The relatively low density of this proposed development will ensure compatibility with surrounding
residential areas, preserving and enhancing the aesthetic and environmental qualities of the vicinity.
3.6.CC.2. - Provide appropriate park facilities andservices forresidents ofall ages in the community.
✓ The anticipated demographics of this proposed neighborhood suggest that a private picnic area and
trailhead would be most likely to be utilized and enjoyed by future residents. Having developed other
neighborhoods in the area, including the one directly to the south of this property, Insight Homes has an
educated understanding of which amenities would be most appropriate for this neighborhood.
3.6.CC.3. - Link existing and planned neighborhoods with parks and open spaces by incorporating path and trail
facilities.
✓ The Oro Valley trails master plan shows a trail alignment running within the wash coursing through the
property. During the platting process a trail easement will be granted to help fulfil the trails master plan
and provide connectivity to nearby pedestrian facilities.

4.4.K. - Proactive conservation, protection and restoration of environmentally sensitive lands, natural resource
areas andhabitats andlands with high scenic value.
✓ Wilder Landscape Architect and Pecon Enrivonmental recently completed a habitat analysis of the
property. Their findings will be provided to Town staff for review and incorporation into the Town's
Environmentally Sensitive Lands mapping. A portion of the site has been proposed as ESL Critical
Resource Area, and will be conserved accordingly.
4.5.SD.2. - Protect and provide connections between contiguous, environmentally sensitive lands within the
Town, including key habitat areas and significant natural resource areas.
✓ Mapped ESL Critical Resource Areas exist to the north and south of this property, defining those
stretches of the same wash that bisects this land. CPA mapping will be established onsite, providing
continuity of wash protection.
4.5.SD.4. -Protect and conserve healthy native vegetation during the development process.
✓ This development will abide by the Town's native plant preservation requirements. Indeed, the native
vegetation onsite adds much to the quality and aesthetics of the neighborhood once fully developed.
4.5.SD.8. -Encourage development project designs that connect wildlife habitat areas, a void disturbing signifi"cant
wildlife habitats and minimize the overall impacts on wildlife habitat areas.
✓ Please refer to the above responses to 4.4.K, 4.5.SD.2, and 4.5.SD.4.
4.5-5010. -Strive to protect the public and environment from the threats and risks ofstormwater
surges and potential negative impacts of contaminants from runoff.
✓ Development of this neighborhood will involve minimal floodplain encroachment, and will not result in
any negative impacts to offsite lands, either upstream or down.
5.4.X. - Effective transitions between differing land uses and intensities in the community.
✓ This proposed neighborhood
matches the density and character of
Insight Homes' prior neighborhood
to the south. Along our western
edge we have included lots with a
minimum size of one acre to provide
a soft transition to the larger lots in
Pima County to the west.
Additionally, the proposed
residential density is below that
which is designated by the General
Plan. The existing subdivisions to the
east and north are significantly more
dense. Thus, this project will be
entirely compatible with surrounding
uses.
Page 4 of 5

PROJECT#: 21abb01 low DATE: 2/17/2023
5.51 U.6. - Maintain the small-town, neighborly character
andimprove the design andsafetyofthe built environment.
✓ By developing at similar or lower residential density
to surrounding areas, this neighborhood will help
maintain the small-town, neighborly character of
this part of Oro Valley.
5.7DG.z. - Require new development to pay its share
toward the cost of additional public facility and service
needs generated by new development while balancing
public and private interests in cost allocation.
✓ The developer will fund their fair share of any new
infrastructure is required to offset the impacts of
this development.
Based on the prioritization criteria listed above, the Town's
Annexation Strategy includes the subject property within Priority
Area 4.
As the Annexation Strategy states, "annexing land that is primarily
undeveloped enables the Town to properly plan for future
development". This property is an ideal candidate for annexation
into Oro Valley, and I look forward to working with your staff
throughout this process. Please do not hesitate to contact me with
any questions.
Sincerely,
Paul Oland
I, The Estate of Hopson D D H Tremont, the owner of the property described herein,
authorize the applicant designated above to file this annexation application and to act
as the point of contact for matters relating to this annexation on my behalf.

Executive Summary
This analysis quantifies the potential socioeconomic and fiscal impacts of the annexation and
development of the La Canada and Moore property on the Town of Oro Valley's operations and
maintenance budget. The property includes about 36 gross acres at the southwest corner of
Moore Road and La Canada Drive (Map 1). Under translational zoning, the site could support
ten new single family homes. This analysis presents the estimated annual net impacts at build
out.
MAP 1
SITE LOCATION
Applied Economics developed a customized fiscal impact model for the Town of Oro Valley that
has been used for previous annexation studies. The model has been updated with the newest
budget data for this analysis. The results show the estimated annual operations and
maintenance impacts at build out, including the marginal increase in taxable sales from new
residents that could be captured in Oro Valley.
1
20232550276 Page 18 of 33
The fiscal results show a marginally positive annual net impact in the General Fund and
Highway Fund with revenues exceeding expenditures by about 6% per year. Annual revenues
are estimated at about $14,500 per year, and annual expenditures are estimated at about
$13,700. There could also be an estimated $246,000 in one-time revenues related to new
construction, including construction sales taxes, planning and permitting fees and development
impact fees. Since the annexation area includes only ten new single family homes, the net fiscal
impact is positive, but very small compared to the town's overall budget.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
This analysis demonstrates the potential fiscal impacts of annexation for the La Canada and
Moore property. The site includes about 36 gross acres that could support ten new single family
housing units under translational zoning. This analysis shows the annual net impacts at build
out once development is complete.
1.1 General Approach
The impact assessment reflects revenues and expenditures in the General Fund and Highway
Fund that would be affected by future development of the La Canada and Moore property. It
does not include capital costs for new infrastructure, but on -going maintenance costs are
included. However, all residential streets within the development would be private, so there
would be no new street maintenance costs to the town.
The approach begins with estimating the socioeconomic impacts of future development
(measured in acres, housing units and population), and then estimates the operating revenues
and expenditures likely to be associated with that development. Revenue and expenditure line
items that could be impacted by new development are identified using current and historical
town budgets. A socioeconomic factor is associated with each line item in the General Fund
and Highway Fund to predict a corresponding impact for the new development. Projected
annual impacts at build out exclude construction -related revenues and expenditures that are
captured in the one-time impacts.
1.2 Report Organization
The balance of this report is divided into two sections. Section 2.0 details the methodology,
development characteristics, socioeconomic assumptions, household spending and sales tax
projections and fiscal assumptions. Section 3.0 describes the results of the fiscal impact
analysis.
The information and observations contained in this report are based on our present knowledge of the components
of development, and of the current physical, socioeconomic and fiscal conditions of the affected areas. Projections
made in this report are based on hypothetical assumptions and current public finance policies. However, even if
the assumptions outlined in this report were to occur, there will usually be differences between the projections
and the actual results because events and circumstances frequently do not occur as expected. This analysis is
based on the best available information and is intended to aid the Town of Oro Valley in making decisions relative
to this annexation. All dollar figures should be interpreted as order of magnitude estimates only.

2.0 METHODOLOGY
2.1 Development Characteristics
The La Canada and Moore property could support 10 new single family units, based on
projections provided by the Planning Division (Figure 1). The average unit is expected to be
about 3,200 square feet. The analysis assumes 2.3 persons per household based on
information from the American Community Survey for Oro Valley. Taxable utilities are
estimated at $2,074 per unit per year.

Index, 2022 Annual Average (utility cost); American Community Survey 2021 data

UNITS •: •.. • '.i
Information on housing units, combined with occupancy rates and persons per household, is
used to estimate future population. At build -out, it is anticipated that the 10 new houses could
support a population of 23 new residents (Figure 2). Socioeconomic impacts also include
projected household spending and residential utility costs, both of which generate sales tax
revenues.

Residential Utilities $20.74
Sources: Applied Economics, 2023.
2.3 Household Spending and Retail Sales
It is likely that the new households in the La Canada and Moore property will slightly increase
taxable sales at local retail and restaurants. The first step in estimating the potential increase in
retail sales is to estimate the increase in household spending based on household incomes.
4
20232550276 Page 21 of 33
Applied Economics estimates that household incomes in this development would be about
$260,000 per year based on the expected value of the homes at $1.1 million.
The next step is to translate household income into household spending. The Bureau of Labor
Statistics, Consumer Expenditure Survey provides annual data on household spending by pre-
tax income level. The spending categories include the full range of typical consumer
expenditures. Household with incomes in the over $200,000 range typically spend about 51% of
their pre-tax income on goods and services, according to the Consumer Expenditure Survey.
The detailed types of expenditures in the Consumer Expenditure Survey can be grouped into
local retail and services such as groceries and other household items that are typically
purchased within a three -to -five -mile radius of the consumer's residence, and regional retail
and services such as furniture, appliances, vehicles and entertainment where consumers may
be willing to drive a greater distance to compare prices or to access specialized providers. The
Consumer Expenditure Survey also includes non -retail expenditures for items such as rent,
utilities and insurance where the location of the provider may not be relevant. Figure 3 shows
estimated annual household spending for the 10 new households in the La Canada and Moore
property. At build out, new annual household spending could total $2.6 million, including $0.7
million in local and regional retail and services. It is important to keep in mind that not all new
spending will be captured in Oro Valley.

To estimate the potential increase in taxable retail sales in Oro Valley, it is necessary to identify
types of purchases that could potentially be made locally, and the share of those purchases that
are likely to be captured in Oro Valley. Taxable categories from the Consumer Expenditure
Survey that could potentially be purchased in the town include the following:
• Restaurants and bars
• Personal care products
• Housekeeping supplies
• Small appliances and miscellaneous housewares
• Household textiles
• Medical supplies
• Reading materials
• Pet supplies
• Furniture and floor coverings
• Major appliances
• Apparel and shoes
• Entertainment fees and admissions
• Audio and visual equipment
• Toys and hobbies
The Economic Census for retail industries includes estimates of total retail sales and e-
commerce sales by retail category. As of 2021, which is the most current data available, e-
commerce accounts for 3% to 6% of sales in most retail categories. Estimates of taxable retail
sales captured at stores in Oro Valley are adjusted for e-commerce sales.
Next, it is necessary to estimate the share of purchases by category that could be captured in
Oro Valley based on the types of stores currently in the town and the surrounding market area,
and Oro Valley's share of actual sales tax collections. Using data on monthly sales tax
collections by industry in FY22 from the Arizona Department of Revenue, Oro Valley accounts
for 6.3% of taxable restaurant sales and 4.6% of taxable retail sales in the Oro
Valley/Marana/Tucson region. Oro Valley makes up 7.4% of the population in the three -city
area, indicating that there is retail leakage occurring with Oro Valley capturing only about 85%
of its per capita share of restaurant sales and 62% of its per capita share of retail sales. These
capture rates are applied to household spending for the taxable categories listed above to
estimate the potential increase in new household spending in Oro Valley from development in
the La Canada and Moore property. Figure 4 shows estimated annual taxable sales in Oro
Valley. This information provides a rough estimate of the increase in retail sales taxes in Oro
Valley from new residential development in the La Canada and Moore property. These are high
level estimates that could vary over time depending on the types of stores in Oro Valley
compared to stores available in the surrounding market area and consumer preferences.

The fiscal model created to assess the impacts of new development is based on current and
historical budgets for the town for the past seven fiscal years, with greater emphasis on the
past two to three years of budget data. Revenue and expenditure line items in the General
Fund and Highway Fund are the focus since these funds would be most impacted by the new
development. In general, the analysis focuses on operations and maintenance. The model
does not include any construction costs for new infrastructure.
Various drivers are identified for each of the revenue and expenditure items in the model to
develop rates that are applied to socioeconomic projections for the projected new
development. In most cases, the model uses an average of the rate for the previous two or
three years to better reflect line items that fluctuate from year to year. Some revenue and
expenditure items increase at rates that are less consistent over time, or reflect permanent
increases or decreases due to operational or other changes. In these cases, the model uses
only the most recent fiscal year to accurately reflect current conditions. The rates and basis for
all revenue and expenditure items in the fiscal impacts of new development are shown in
Appendix A.
Many of the revenue and expenditure drivers include population, or "service population",
which includes both population and employment. This is because many of the services
provided by the town, as well as the various types of revenues that local governments depend
on, are proportional to the number of people living and working there. In some cases,
N
20232550276 Page 25 of 33
population is weighted more heavily than employment since residents use some municipal
services proportionally more than businesses.
Major line items that are not driven by population or employment include sales tax, which is a
function of taxable resident spending in Oro Valley and residential utilities. On the expenditure
side, transportation engineering is based on the number of lane miles added and is a one-time
expenditure, while street maintenance is also a function of lane miles but is an on -going
expenditure (although no new public streets are included in this development). Police services
are a function of calls for service by type of land use and implied staffing at that call level based
on current staffing and call levels in Oro Valley and a total annual cost of approximately
$192,486 per officer in current dollars.' The projected number of additional calls varies
depending on the type of development. Golder Ranch Fire District would provide fire service,
which is not part of the fiscal model.
'The cost per officer represents the 2022-23 budgeted general fund expenditures for police and support services
(excluding one-time costs) divided by the existing number of sworn officers. Vehicle maintenance for police
vehicles is included in fleet services, which is a separate line item in the budget.

3.0 FISCAL IMPACT RESULTS
The fiscal impacts assume the level of services provided by the town and the structure of
municipal revenues would remain similar to current conditions with both revenues and
expenditures increasing to support additional residential development.
The 10 new homes that are anticipated in the La Canada and Moore property could create a
small positive net impact in the General Fund and Highway Fund with revenues exceeding
expenditures by an estimated 6 percent per year at build out, based on the assumptions used in
this analysis (Figure 5).
■ These new housing units could result in an estimated 23 new residents. General and
dedicated sales taxes from resident spending combined with utility sales taxes, are
estimated at about $4,000 per year. Sales taxes are one of the largest sources of operating
revenues for the town. No construction sales tax is included in the build out impacts.
Section 3.2 provides more detail about one-time revenues including construction sales taxes
and other construction -related fees.
■ Other major revenues include state shared income tax, state sales tax, vehicle license tax
and highway user revenues that increase proportional to population and are estimated at
about $9,000 per year, based on current per capita distribution levels and projected
population in the La Canada and Moore property. State shared revenues are important to
the town and make up about one third of current General Fund revenues.
■ The largest on -going expenditures for the town would be police services. Annual police
costs are based on existing expenditures plus the projected calls generated by new
residential development, the average number of calls per officer and the total police
services cost per officer in Oro Valley. Annual police costs for the new households in the La
Canada and Moore property are estimated at about $11,000 per year in 2023 dollars.
■ Other expenditure impacts include information technology and general administration
expenditures (as well as other Management & Policy expenditures) at an estimated $1,000
per year. In general, Management and Policy and Administrative Services expenditures
increase marginally as population increases, based on the assumptions used in this model.
■ There could also be modest impacts of about $340 per year in parks and recreation, and
$1,400 per year in public works (mainly for facilities and fleet maintenance). This fiscal
model is often used for larger projects and is intended to capture the marginal increase in
overall expenditures that are required to serve new development.
■ There would also be non -recurring expenditures in community and economic development
in years when there is construction that are not captured in the build out impacts. These
expenditures are fully offset by construction sales taxes and permit fee revenues. Since
this is a very small development, the impacts to community and economic development
during construction would be minimal.

3.2 One -Time Impacts
The impact results in the previous section reflect annual 0&M revenues and expenditures at
build out for the La Canada and Moore property. During construction, there would be one-time
revenues estimated at $246,000, which could accrue over multiple years (Figure 6).
Construction costs that form the basis for construction sales taxes are based on residential
construction costs from Gordian, Square Foot Costs, 2023. The construction sales tax of
$140,000 estimates assumes materials make up 65% of construction sales tax.

*Dedicated funds, not part of General Fund.
Applying the town's current impact fee rates, the proposed level of new development could
generate about $30,000 in non -utility development impact fees, the majority of which would be
for transportation. The proposed single family development in the La Canada and Moore
property could generate an estimated $76,000 in building permit, planning and engineering
fees in the General Fund, based on per unit estimates provided by the town. There would also
be costs to the town associated with planning and permitting activities, and infrastructure
construction funded by development impact fees, proportional to one-time revenues.

3.3 Summary
The proposed annexation of the La Canada and Moore property would likely result in build out
of this parcel within the next five years, given its size and proximity to existing development.
The projected fiscal impacts would be small, proportional to the number of new housing units
and residents, and a marginal positive annual impact is projected at build out. This result
assumes new taxable sales at local retail and restaurants related to demand from new
residents. The impacts also reflect the fact that all new streets in the development would be
maintained by the homeowners. Because the overall size of the annexation area is small, it
could easily be absorbed into existing town operations.
