Town Council Regular Session Item # D.
Meeting Date:05/20/2015

Department:Human Resources
Information
SUBJECT:
Approval of the 2015/16 Employee Healthcare Insurance Premium Rates and Health Savings Account
Contributions
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Changes to employee's health insurance premiums are historically approved by Town Council. The
recommended employee rates for 24 pay periods for 2015/16 are as follows:
PPO - Per Pay Period Premium Rate
Current Proposed Know Your Numbers
Employee Only $10.00 $10.00 $0.00
Employee + Spouse $58.54 $63.39 $53.39
Employee + Children $38.31 $41.14 $31.14
Employee + Family $100.19 $109.21 $99.21
High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP) - Per Pay Period Premium Rate
Current Proposed Know Your Numbers
Employee Only $10.00 $10.00 $0.00
Employee + Spouse $34.27 $36.70 $26.70
Employee + Children $24.15 $25.57 $15.57
Employee + Family $55.09 $59.60 $49.60
Employees would pay either the proposed rate or the "Know Your Numbers" rate if they participate in the
program. The proposed increase for employees and the Town is 10% over last year’s rates. The
proposed increase for the Town would result in an estimated additional Town-paid premium increase of
$258,000 annually over last year based on 274 eligible participants. Like last year, the Town will
contribute $1,000 annually for employee only and $1,250 annually for employee with dependents for
those choosing the High Deductible Healthcare Plan (HDHP), which will be deposited to their Health
Savings Account (HSA).
BACKGROUND OR DETAILED INFORMATION:
CBIZ, our benefits consultant, is recommending these increases based on United Healthcare's actuarial
study of our benefits. Factors related to the increase include:
Healthcare reform - new taxes, copayments and deductibles included in out-of-pocket max
Increased claim costs - Fiscal year 2014/15 is trending to be the most expensive claim year yet
Expected annual increases in the cost of providing medical care
The increase in employee and Town premiums will generate an additional $293,200 for a total
The increase in employee and Town premiums will generate an additional $293,200 for a total
of $2,524,200 for 2015/16. These increases are built into the recommended budget. In addition, the
premium increases were discussed during benefit presentations, employee budget presentations and
department meetings.
CBIZ recently conducted an analysis of our claims experience since fiscal year 2012 to determine what
our costs would have been if we had remained fully insured. Their analysis concluded that the Town of
Oro Valley has saved over $925,000 during this period by moving to the self-funded model.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Based on current benefit enrollment numbers, the Town-paid premium costs will increase from
$1,970,000 in FY 2014/15 to $2,228,000 for FY 2015/16, an increase of $258,000. Employee-paid
premiums will increase from $261,000 in FY 2014/15 to $296,200 for FY 2015/16, an increase of
$35,200. Overall, total health premium contributions to the Self-Insurance Benefit Fund will increase by
$293,200 from $2,231,000 in FY 2014/15 to $2,524,200 for FY 2015/16. These premiums are expected
to cover budgeted health claims costs for FY 2015/16 of $2,007,850.
SUGGESTED MOTION:
I MOVE to (approve or deny) the recommended premium rates and health savings contributions as
presented.

Resolution No. (R)15-35, approving the donation of scoreboards from the Oro Valley Fast Pitch Softball
League to be installed on the two softball fields at Riverfront Park
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
In 2012, the Oro Valley Fast Pitch Softball (OVFPS) league raised funds for the purchase and installation
of four shade covers to go over the bleachers at the Riverfront Park softball fields. OVFPS's most recent
fundraising efforts have focused on the purchase of electronic scoreboards. The league reached their
financial goal this year and would like to have these scoreboards installed by the end of June 2015 in
order to be ready to host the All-Star tournament.
BACKGROUND OR DETAILED INFORMATION:
The Oro Valley Fast Pitch Softball (OVFPS) league has called Riverfront Park home for nearly 10 years.
The league has worked hard to provide a fun, competitive recreational girls softball league and has
turned out several college-level players.
In addition to youth sport development, the OVFPS raises funds to give back to its community. In 2012,
the league raised funds for the purchase and installation of four shade covers, which are currently over
the bleachers at the Riverfront Park softball fields. OVFPS's most recent fundraising efforts have been
focused on the purchase of electronic scoreboards, which they reached their financial goal this year and
would like to have these scoreboards installed by the end of June 2015 in order to be ready for the
All-Star tournament.
The scoreboards will be placed along the outfield fences. The scoreboards are a Nevco Model 1625,
which is a basic scoreboard that includes both inning and the timing feature displaying both minutes and
seconds using digital colons. Balls, strikes, and outs are indicated with bulls-eye indicators, and
these scoreboards also include a 3’ x 2’ sponsor area.
Additional description information is provided in the second attachment.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The estimated operating cost of these scoreboards is approximately $200 per year, which is based
on two, five-month seasons at $20 per month.

PUBLIC HEARING: DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE ACTION REGARDING THREE APPLICATIONS
FOR A SERIES 10 (BEER & WINE STORE) LIQUOR LICENSE FOR GIANT STORE #617 LOCATED
AT 8080 N. ORACLE ROAD, GIANT STORE #812 LOCATED AT 10505 N. ORACLE ROAD AND
GIANT STORE #813 LOCATED AT 12885 N. ORACLE ROAD
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of these three liquor licenses to the Arizona Department of Liquor Licenses
and Control for the following reasons:
1. No protests to these licenses have been received.
2. The necessary background investigations were conducted by the Police Department.
3. The Police Department has no objection to the approval of the three Series 10 Liquor Licenses.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Three applications for interim permits and new Series 10 (Beer & Wine Store) licenses have been
submitted by owner Roger Burton for Giant Store #617, #812, and #813 located at 8080 N. Oracle Road,
10505 N. Oracle Road and 12885 N. Oracle Road, respectively.
Mr. Burton has submitted all necessary paperwork to the Town of Oro Valley and the Arizona Department
of Liquor Licenses and Control, and has paid all related fees associated with applying for the liquor
licenses ($500 Application Processing Fee).
BACKGROUND OR DETAILED INFORMATION:
This non-transferable, off-sale retail privileges liquor license allows a retail store to sell beer and wine (no
other spirituous liquors), only in the original unbroken package, to be taken away from the premises of
the retailer and consumed off the premises. A retailer with off-sale privileges may deliver spirituous liquor
off of the licensed premises in connection with a retail sale. Payment must be made no later than the time
of delivery.
In accordance with Section 4-201 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, the applications were posted for 20
days on the premises of the applicant's three properties, ending April 22, 2015. No protests were
received during this time period.
Police Chief Daniel Sharp completed a standard background check on Giant Store #'s 617, 812 and

& Wine Store) licenses.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Per Ordinance No. (O)11-16, the Town of Oro Valley charges a $500 liquor license application
processing fee to cover the costs incurred by the Town to process the application.
Per Section 8-2-6 Schedule of the Oro Valley Town Code, persons licensed by the State of Arizona to

SUGGESTED MOTION:
I MOVE to (recommend or deny) approval of the issuance of a Series 10 Liquor License to the Arizona
Department of Liquor Licenses and Control for Roger Burton for Giant Stores #617, #812 and
#813 located respectively at 8080 N. Oracle Road, 10505 N. Oracle Road and 12885 N. Oracle Road.

Town Council Regular Session Item # 2.
Meeting Date:05/20/2015
Requested by: Stacey Lemos Submitted By:Stacey Lemos, Finance
Department:Finance
Information
SUBJECT:
PRESENTATION OF FIVE-YEAR FINANCIAL FORECAST THROUGH FY 2019/20
RECOMMENDATION:
This item is for presentation and discussion.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The Town's adopted financial policies provide "as a part of the annual Town budget preparation cycle,
the Finance Department shall prepare a minimum 5-year financial forecast of projected revenues and
expenditures to measure the financial sustainability of the Town's operations and service levels." As
such, staff will present the 5-year financial forecast through FY 2019/20 for the General Fund, Highway
Fund and Bed Tax Fund.
The forecast assumptions were compiled by referencing several sources of data, including the University
of Arizona, Joint Legislative Budget Committee (JLBC), State Finance Advisory Committee, Arizona
Department of Revenue and the Arizona Department of Transportation. Staff also incorporated Town
historical trend data and professional judgment into formulation of this forecast.
BACKGROUND OR DETAILED INFORMATION:
Attached to this communication are the following fund forecasts:
General Fund
5-Year Forecast of Revenues and Expenditures by Category
General Fund Forecast Assumptions
Graph of Forecasted Revenues, Expenditures and Fund Balance
Overall, the General Fund remains stable over the 5-year horizon, with moderate revenue growth and an
emphasis on fiscally conservative spending. Revenues in the General Fund reflect 2% - 4% growth in
recurring revenue sources, such as State shared revenues and local retail sales tax. One-time revenues
generated from construction sales taxes and building permits are slightly more volatile with fluctuation in
the forecasted single-family residential (SFR) permits issued per year, as well as completion of one-time
commercial development projects included in the forecast. The forecast assumes residential construction
will peak in FY 16/17 and FY 17/18 with 300 SFR permits issued each year, declining to 200 in FY 19/20.
The forecast assumes a steady, conservative level of commercial construction with infill projects and
potential development continuing in Innovation Park, San Dorado commercial center, and on available
parcels along Tangerine and Oracle Road.
General Fund expenditure projections reflect the continued commitment to providing fair employee
General Fund expenditure projections reflect the continued commitment to providing fair employee
compensation, maintaining adequate funding of the Town's rising pension and health insurance costs,
minimizing operations and maintenance (O&M) budget increases, and allocating remaining available
resources to asset replacement (computers and vehicles) and capital infrastructure needs. Capacity for
capital infrastructure needs are expected to fluctuate, based on available funding sources and the
re-establishment of the transfer of construction sales taxes to subsidize Highway Fund operations
beginning in FY 2016/17.
The fund balance in the General Fund is maintained at healthy levels over the five-year period at $10
million to $10.1 million, which is above the Town's adopted policy requirement of 25% of adopted
expenditures each year.
Highway Fund
5-Year Forecast of Revenues and Expenditures by Category
Highway Fund Forecast Assumptions
Graph of Forecasted Revenues, Expenditures and Fund Balance
Highway Fund revenues are comprised primarily of State shared highway user (gas tax) revenues and
local construction sales taxes (transferred from the General Fund beginning in FY 16/17). The State
shared highway user revenues through FY 16/17 include the impact of Senate Bill 1487 signed by the
Governor last year, which allocates additional highway user funds to counties, cities and towns. The
projections for these revenues are provided by the Arizona Department of Transportation. The
construction sales tax revenues transferred from the General Fund will maintain the overall fund balance
in the Highway Fund at roughly $1 million each year.
Highway Fund expenditures reflect similar assumptions as those included in the General Fund forecast
for personnel and O&M costs. Funding for the pavement preservation program is included in the forecast
and ranges from $1.3 million to $1.4 million per year. As with the General Fund, capacity for capital
needs in the Highway Fund are expected to fluctuate, based on available funding sources.
The fund balance in the Highway Fund is projected to decrease to approximately $1 million by FY 16/17
and will be maintained at about that same level through FY 19/20.
Bed Tax Fund
5-Year Forecast of Revenues and Expenditures by Category
Bed Tax Fund Forecast Assumptions
Graph of Forecasted Revenues, Expenditures and Fund Balance
The Bed Tax Fund captures revenues generated by the Town's 6% lodging tax on hotels/motels. State
law requires that two-thirds of our bed tax collections be allocated to tourism promotion purposes and
economic development. Revenues are expected to grow at a healthy level following planned renovations
at the Hilton El Conquistador and continued economic recovery projected in the tourism industry.
Bed Tax Fund expenditures reflect existing contract amounts with Visit Tucson and the Greater Oro
Valley Chamber of Commerce, as well as continued funding for SAACA and special events. Also
included in the fund are the debt service payments for the Aquatic Center bonds, repayment to the
General Fund of $35,000 per year for borrowed reserves used toward the Aquatic Center construction
costs, and payment to the General Fund for the incremental increased operating costs of the Aquatic
Center, which is expected to gradually decrease over the next few years.
The FY 19/20 ending balance in the Bed Tax Fund is projected at almost $470,000.

Town Council Regular Session Item # 3.
Meeting Date:05/20/2015
Requested by: Stacey Lemos Submitted By:Stacey Lemos, Finance
Department:Finance
Information
SUBJECT:
PUBLIC HEARING: RESOLUTION NO. (R)15-36, ADOPTION OF THE TENTATIVE BUDGET FOR FY
2015/16 AND SETTING THE LOCAL ALTERNATIVE EXPENDITURE LIMITATION FOR FY 2015/16
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
This item is for Council's consideration and adoption of the Town's Tentative Budget for FY 2015/16 in
the amount of $119,687,709, a $366,944 reduction from the FY 2015/16 Recommended Budget of
$120,054,653 presented on April 15, 2015. Several adjustments were made to the Recommended
Budget resulting in this reduction, which are explained in further detail below.
Adoption of Resolution No. (R)15-36 will also set the maximum local expenditure limitation at this
amount. Once the limitation is set, expenditures for the year may not exceed that amount. The Council
has the authority to make changes to the budget prior to the final budget adoption scheduled for June 3,
2015; however, the total amount of the final budget may not exceed the expenditure limitation set this
evening. The Council also has the authority to modify the budget throughout the fiscal year.
BACKGROUND OR DETAILED INFORMATION:
Staff presented the FY 2015/16 Manager's Recommended Budget in the amount of $120,054,653 at the
April 15, 2015 regular Town Council meeting. This presentation, along with the full copy of the
Recommended Budget, has been posted to the Town's website, www.orovalleyaz.gov.
The FY 2015/16 Tentative Budget is presented for approval this evening in the amount of $119,687,709,
a reduction of $366,944 from the Recommended Budget. This difference is attributable to the following
adjustments made to the Recommended Budget:
Description Fund Amount
FY 2015/16 Recommended Budget $120,054,653
Reduction in revenues due to Amphi
school construction delay
General
Fund
(620,000)
Rollover of budgeted funds from FY
14/15 to complete Naranja Park
Restroom CIP project in FY 15/16
CIP Fund 145,000
Increase in Highway User Revenue
Funds (HURF) revenues per revised
estimates from State
Highway 108,056
FY 2015/16 Tentative Budget $119,687,709
School Project Delay
Due to the recent decision by the Amphi school board to delay construction of a new elementary school in
Rancho Vistoso (proposed opening was for the 2016/17 school year), $620,000 in one-time
construction-related revenues associated with this project were removed from the Recommended
Budget. As a result, the transfer of funds from the General Fund to the CIP Fund was reduced by
$420,000, and the proposed General Fund surplus (tied to one-time revenues) was reduced by $200,000
from $294,521 to $94,521.
The $420,000 reduction in funds transferred to the CIP Fund were intended to be allocated to the
proposed Police Property/ID and Substation Facility, with $120,000 to be allocated for FY 2015/16 and
the remaining $300,000 to be banked for FY 2016/17 construction costs. As a result, the FY
2015/16 budgeted amount for this facility is reduced by $120,000 from $1,340,000 to $1,220,000 in the
CIP Fund. Due to this project's location and final scope not yet being finalized, this project may be
delayed until further funding sources are identified.
By reducing the General Fund surplus from $294,521 to $94,521, the estimated ending fund balance at
June 30, 2016 would be approximately $10 million, down from the Recommended Budget estimate of
$10.2 million. This still represents a balance of 31% of budgeted expenditures in that fund, which is
above the Town's policy level of 25%.
Rollover of Funds for the Naranja Restroom Project
The FY 2014/15 adopted budget includes $250,000 budgeted for a restroom facility at Naranja Park in
the CIP Fund. Staff is currently developing a contract to move and install a modular building that will not
only provide restrooms for the park, but also offer office space for future utilization. This project is
underway, and $145,000 in unspent funding capacity will be rolled over into the FY 2015/16 Tentative
Budget, within the CIP Fund, for completion of this project next fiscal year.
Increase in HURF Revenues
After delivery of the Recommended Budget to Town Council, staff received updated HURF gas
tax revenue estimates from the League of Arizona Cities and Towns resulting from the amounts reflected
in the final adopted State budget. These revised HURF revenues increased by $108,056, from
$2,877,408 to $2,985,464, which is reflected in the Highway Fund.
The above adjustments have been incorporated into the budget figures shown in the attached Official
Auditor General budget forms. Also attached to this communication are the following updated pages
from the FY 2015/16 Manager's Recommended Budget document: Fund Balance Report (Page
1, Recommended Budget document); General Fund Summary (Page 3, Recommended Budget);
Highway Fund Summary (Page 4, Recommended Budget); and General Government CIP Fund
Summary (Page 21, Recommended Budget).
Council budget study sessions were held on April 22 and April 29, 2015, to provide overviews of the
larger, service delivery department budgets, including the CIP. The agenda item this evening is a public
hearing and approval of the resolution to adopt the FY 2015/16 Tentative Budget in the amount of
$119,687,709. Once approved, the attached Auditor General Budget forms will be published for two
consecutive weeks prior to the next public hearing for Final Budget approval scheduled for June 3, 2015.

Information
SUBJECT:
PUBLIC HEARING: ORDINANCE NO. (O)15-08, AMENDING SECTION 28.5.B.15 OF THE ORO
VALLEY ZONING CODE TO ALLOW ILLUMINATED WINDOW SIGNS ON BUSINESS STORE
FRONTS AND TO SECTION 28.6.B TO ALLOW THE USE OF BALLOONS FOR A GRAND OPENING
OR CHANGE OF OWNERSHIP AND MINOR CHANGES THROUGHOUT SECTION 28 RELATED TO
THE AMENDMENTS
RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning and Zoning Commission recommends approval of the proposed amendments as depicted
in Attachment 1, Exhibit “A.”
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
On February 18, 2015, Town Council initiated a Sign Code amendment regarding business sign
illumination and use of balloons. The following is proposed:
Allow illuminated signs within a 6 square foot area of a storefront window 1.
Permit limited use of balloons for grand opening events or a change in ownership2.
The Planning & Zoning Commission considered the amendments on April 7, 2015, and has
recommended approval.
BACKGROUND OR DETAILED INFORMATION:
Window Sign Details
Existing Sign Code Provisions: The sign code allows a business to use 6 square feet of store front
window space to display signs promoting their goods and services. Signs within the display area are not
allowed to be illuminated.
Proposed Amendment: The amendment would allow a business to install illuminated window signs in the
currently allowed 6 square foot display area. Below is a table showing how the use of illuminated window
signs would be incorporated into the currently allowed window display area:
Window Sign Type Current Code Proposed Allowance
Display Area Allowed Use the same display area
Size 6 square feet No change
Quantity 1 display area per
40’ of store front
Limit of 1 display area with illumination.
No other changes to existing provisions.
Location Near front door No change
Illumination None Yes
Balloons Details
Existing Sign Code Provisions: The sign code does not allow use of balloons.
Proposed Amendment: The proposed sign code amendment would allow balloons to be used to
celebrate a business grand opening or change in ownership. Below is a table showing the details of the
proposed balloon allowance:
Sign Type Max Size Illumination Height Color Location Quantity Duration
Balloon 18”None 8’*Any On property of
business for grand opening Unlimited 5 Days
*Could be attached to a fence or permanent structure that could increase the overall height up to 15’ from
grade.
Zoning Code Amendment Analysis:
Window Signs: The proposed, illuminated window sign allowance uses many of the same standards as
defined in the existing "window sign display area" of the sign code. Restrictions were added for
illuminated signs to limit the quantity of display areas with illumination to only one, impose curfew limits
and not allow moving signs.
Balloons: The proposed use of balloons is limited to new businesses or change in ownership.
Furthermore, balloons may only be used for a maximum of five days and limited to a standard round 18”
size. Additional sign definitions and changes to the prohibited list were added to prevent inflatable signs
such as tires, mascots, etc.
General Plan Analysis
The Zoning Code amendments were reviewed for conformance with the General Plan’s Goals and
Policies. Listed below are relevant policies within the General Plan relating to signage in italics, followed
by staff commentary:
Signage: Signage controls have to balance citizens concerns about the increasing level of signage with
the needs of businesses to attract customers.
The proposed illuminated window sign allowance does not increase the amount of window signage
allowed for each business. However, the proposal does increase the level of intensity.
Enabling balloons would temporarily increase signage for a maximum of five days - only in the event of a
grand opening or a change of ownership.
Policy 2.1.10: The Town shall create standards for signage to provide information and direction to allow
businesses to attract and maintain customers with the least intrusive signage possible.
The proposed sign allowances include limits to the size, quantity and duration, which will help maintain a
balance between the businesses' needs and the Town’s aesthetic standards.
Policy 11.3.3 The Town shall use existing standards and guidelines, and establish new ones as needed,
to ensure that the built environment blends with or enhances the natural environment by restricting
signage primarily to identification.
This policy suggest that signage should blend with the natural environment and be restricted "primarily
to identification. The term, "identification" enables a business to make known its name, goods and
services. As discussed at the Planning & Zoning Commission, the line between "identification" and
"advertising" is very unclear.
Balloons and/or illuminated window signs could be only used in established commercial developments
which would not impact the natural environment outside of the development.
In the end, the policies listed above are very subjective in nature. Determining whether there are
sufficient allowances for "businesses to attract and maintain customers," whether "balance" has been
achieved, and what constitutes "least intrusive" or "identification" is hardly a technical evaluation.
Planning and Zoning Commission Review :
The amendments were heard by the Commission on April 7, 2015. The main topics discussed at the
meeting included:
Maintaining a balance between a business' signage needs and the Town’s physical beauty
Advertising versus business identification
Maintaining moderation by allowing limited changes
Maintaining a business friendly community
Concern about quantity of balloons
At the conclusion of the public meeting, the Commission voted to recommend approval of the
amendment. The Planning and Zoning Commission staff report is included as Attachment 2 and the draft
minutes are included as Attachment 3.

SUBJECT: Sign Code Amendment
CASE NUMBER: OV715-001

AGENDA ITEM: 2
STAFF CONTACT: Patty Hayes , Senior Planning Techni c ian
Request: Zoning Code Amendment t o add 2 new sign allowances:
1. Wi ndo w Sign: Allow illum i nated signs
2. B alloons : Allow for grand opening events only
Recommendation: Recommend approval
SUMMARY:
On February 18 , 2015 T own Counci l initiated two sign related amendments to the code as
follo ws :
1) Th e first proposed amendment i s to allow illum i nated window signs. Currently th e zoning
code only allows an op en/clo sed sign t o be il lumin ated. The proposal is to allow a
business to utilize a 6 sq uare f oot area of the ir store front w indow for an illuminated
sign(s).
2) Th e seco nd proposed sign is the use of balloons. Th e sign code cu rrentl y d oe s not a llow
bus in esses t o use balloons for any type of business promotion. Th e propos ed sign code
addition would all ow bal loo n s t o be us ed for grand opening events .
-..) -
Th e sign code is i ntended t o prov ide a balance betwee n the need t o promote bus iness, maintain
pub li c safety and the T own's aesthe t ic standards. Th e proposed sign code ame ndment,
provided in Attac hm e nt 1, i s limited in sco pe and maintains thi s balance.
BACKGROUND:
Through business ret ention surveys and visits, the desire fo r greater fl exib ly in the code was
identified. Limit ed use of ill umined window signs and balloons for grand openings are particular
areas of interest.

The first proposed Zoning Code amendment would allow bu sin esses to u se a defined area of

DISCUSSION / ANALYSIS:
Window Signs:
Th e zoning code a ll ows b usinesses t o advertise their goods and services in the w indows of th e
store as outl in ed in the following table.
Sign T ype S ize Illumin ation Proposed Cha nQe
Business Name 2 squa re feet No

Planning and Zoning Commission Staff Report
Th e only proposed change to the window sign allowance is t o permit illuminated signs in a
d isp lay area wit ho ut in creasi ng the overall allowed w in dow signage . Th e 6 square foot display
area cou ld be co mprised of 1 or mo re illumin ated signs that fit int o th e 6 square foot area as
show n in Attachment 2.
Th e proposed code limits th e use of an illuminat ed sign disp lay area to a ma ximum of 1 per
business rega rdl ess of st o re frontage or loca tion. In contrast, th e sign code c urrentl y allows
a business t o have mo re than 1 display area if th e store has a large store front or occupies
a comer space.
Balloons:
Currently, th e sign code does not allow balloons to be used in the To w n . Th e proposed ne w
balloon sign code addition, as depi cted in th e t ab le below, wo ul d allo w a business to use
ba ll oo ns to adve rtis e a grand opening or change in ownership .
Sign Typ e Max Size Illuminat io n H eig ht Col or Lo ca tion Quantity
Balloon is'' No ne S" Any On property of Unlimited
busine ss for grand opening
'Could be attached to a f ence or sign structure that co ul d inc rease the overall height up to 15' from grade .
Th is new sign code allowance wo uld not all ow inflatabl e fi g ures or mov ing characters to
attract att ention . Th e code wou ld simply allow st andard round balloons, is'' or smaller,
either in singular or bouq uet form, as see n in Attachment 3 , to be pl aced ou t side th e
busi n ess t o ann ou nce a new b usine ss f or no longer th an 5 d ays.
GENERAL PLAN COMPLIANCE
Th e Z on ing Code Am e ndm e nt was rev ie wed with th e standa rd s of th e General Plan 's Vision,
Goa ls and Pol ic ies . Li sted below are releva nt po lici es wi thin t he General Pl an relating t o signage
in italics, f ollowed b y staff commentary :
Signage: Sign age contro ls have to balance citizens concerns about the increasing leve l of
sig nage with the needs of businesses to attract customers .
Policy 2.1.10 : The Town shall create standards for signage to provide informatio n and direction
to allow businesses to attract and maintain customers with the least intrusive signage possible.
Staff comment: T he proposed sign types will allow additional signage f or bu sin esses b ut with
spec ifi c standards t o lim it the quantity, placement a nd size of il lumi nated w in dow signs and the
duration of balloons wh ich will aid in preventing the overconcentration of signage if a busine ss
choose t o utilize either proposed sign type.

ALLOW ILLUMINATED WINDOW SIGN(S) AND SECTION 28.6.B. TO ALLOW

Patty Hayes, Zoning Plans Examiner, presented the following:
- Proposal
- Window Signs
- Illuminated Window Sign
- Multiple Window Signs
- Balloons
- Balloon Height
- General Plan
- Conclusion
Chairman Rodman opened the public hearing.
Don Bristow, Oro Valley Resident, stated that Oro Valley businesses have failed to
comply with the town code on illuminated window signs without consistent
enforcement. Since 2010 the Town has made 30 changes to the sign code. It has
been said that each of these changes meet the general plan goals and policies. The
Planning Commission should not recommend approval of this request. There is no
evidence that businesses are in support of this code change and there is no factional
April 7, 2015 Planning and Zoning Commission Page 2 of 6
1
evidence that illuminated window signs improve advertising effectiveness. Illuminated
window signs do not meet the two criteria for signs in Oro Valley: identification or
direction.
Mr. Bristow stated it has been decided that not allowing balloons is a serious short
coming in the Oro Valley sign code. There has been no data collected that supports
allowing balloons. The proposed usage does not comply with the general plan policies.
Bill Adler, Oro Valley resident, commented that signs are regulated out of public interest
not private interest. Staff mentioned one policy but overlooked the second, signage is
intended for identification not advertising. Oro Valley has accommodated businesses
and where does it stop? There is no evidence that these signs generate business. The
general plan and the sign code should be relied upon.
Dave Perry Oro Valley resident and President of the Oro Valley Chamber of
Commerce, stated that the Chamber stands in support of the zoning code
amendment. It is believed that additional lighted signs within 6 square foot of a
storefront window will allow Oro Valley businesses to more effectively advertise their
goods and services. This allowance would further help Oro Valley businesses be
successful. Most retailers' signs are visible within the shopping center, an additional
lighted sign in a business store front would not impact Oro Valley residents
aesthetically.
It is innocent to fly balloons at your grand opening and businesses should be permitted
to celebrate 4 or 5 days as recommended. Adoption of these two zoning code
amendments would be one more indication that Oro Valley is truly open for business.
Chairman Rodman closed the public hearing.
MOTION: A motion was made by Commissioner Drazazgowski and seconded by
Commissioner Hitt to recommend approval of the Zoning Code Amendment to Section
28.5.B to allow illuminated signs in the window sign display area as provided in
Attachment 1.
MOTION carried, 6-1 with Commissioner Barrett opposed.
MOTION: A motion was made by Vice-Chair Leedy and seconded by Commissioner
Hurt to recommend approval of the Zoning Code Amendment to Section 28.6.B allowing
balloons for grand opening events or change in ownership as provided in Attachment 1.
MOTION carried, 6-1 with Commissioner Barrett opposed.

Chad Daines, Principal Planner, presented the following:
- Planning Work Plan FY 15/16 - 16/17
- Why a Work Plan?
- Development Review Team Tasks
- Status of General Plan Implementation (SIP)
- Planning Work Plan FY 13-14 Report Card
- Your Voice/Our Future (General Plan Update)
- The District
- The District: Retro-fit
- Form-based Code
- Complete Streets
- Arroyo Grande/Tangerine 550
- Historic overlay/Open Space/Rezone Parks
- Zoning Code Amendments
- Discussion
Bill Adler, Oro Valley resident, stated that the work plan did not get to the items that
were priority. Part of the problem is that we rely on the general plan for this work plan,
which is a mistake. Most policies in the general plan cannot be implemented, the
policies are not worded specific enough so they lend themselves to be translated into an
ordinance. Form based code is an alternative to conventional zoning, which focuses on
uses. Mr. Adler is against the rezoning of parks to open space, which would conflict
with sports tourism.
Dave Perry, Oro Valley resident, stated that the Chamber started off with the concept
of trying to create downtown Oro Valley and have abandoned that idea, because there
is no practical way to do that. You can have an art and culture district and redevelop
some existing infrastructure and buildings to accomplish the same goal. From his
prospective, Arroyo Grande and Tangerine 550 are something that local government
should look at. Mr. Perry went on to comment that Oro Valley is running out of
undeveloped property.
Staff facilitated an exercise with the Commission which accomplished the following:
- Identified additional work plan items suggested by individual Commissioners
- Reduced the complete list down to a final list based on Commission consensus
- Prioritized the final list into high, medium and low priorities
MOTION: A motion was made by Vice-Chair Leedy and seconded by Commissioner
Hitt The Commission recommended approval of the following work plan items:
High Priority
- General Plan
- Arroyo Grande - Tangerine 550
- The District

Members of the Oro Valley Planning and Zoning Commission
Town staff
Ladies and gentlemen,
The Greater Oro Valley Chamber of Commerce stands in
support of zoning code amendments to Section 28.S.B.IS,
allowing for illuminated window sign(s), and Section 28.6.B.,
allowing balloons for grand opening events. The public hearing is
Item 2 on your April 7 agenda.
We believe illuminated signage , wiiliin the 6-square-foot space
of a storefront window, would allow Oro Va lley businesses to
more effectively advertise their goods and services to residents
and visitors alike.
This proposal is consistent with General Plan langu age related to
signage, and specifically Policy 2.1.1 0 stating the town "s hall
create standards for signage to provide information and direction
to allow businesses to attract and maintain customers with th e
least intrusive signage possible. "
Oro Valley businesses care about the appearance of our
community, and don 't want to disp lay signs iliat interfere with the
community's outstanding aesthetics. They simp ly want tools to
succeed, and this proposal provides such a too l.
We do have one !1uestion about Section 28.5 .B.15 , 15. Window
signs, item iv Bisplay Area: subsection e. Co or: ... ATe neon
signs 0 an..y colo allowed, wJ.thiIi t e requirements ofThis
proposed rule?
It's certainly appropriate for Oro Valley to allow bu s inesses to
celebrate their grand openings with balloons . Balloons cause no
harm to the community, and the 5-day limitation proposed by staff
is reasonab le .
Thanks for the opportunity to comment, and for your service. 1'd
be pleased to answer any questions .

Window and Balloons
The communication on this item does not provide evidence that more ill umination and space in the front
window or balloons brings in more business. I assume this is what is meant by "attract customers"? So a
window sign would attract a buyer who is not presently a customer to come into the store , as would balloons?
I'd like to read about the documentation for these assumptions. The communication states that the proposal
maintains balance with community standards. What's the evidence of that? If a promotional tool is powerful
enough to bring people into a store that wouldn't otherwise do so, the standards are out of balance.

Town Council Regular Session Item # 5.
Meeting Date:05/20/2015
Requested by: Bayer Vella
Submitted By:Chad Daines, Development Infrastructure Services
Department:Development Infrastructure Services
Information
SUBJECT:
DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE ACTION ON THE PLANNING DIVISION TWO YEAR WORK PLAN
(FISCAL YEAR 15-16 AND FISCAL YEAR 16-17) INCLUDING LONG RANGE PLANS AND ZONING
CODE AMENDMENTS
RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning and Zoning Commission has recommended approval of the Planning Division Work Plan
as provided in Attachment 1.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The Planning Work Plan identifies projects to be completed by the Planning Division over a two-year
period. As described in the General Plan, a work plan is necessary to coordinate its implementation.
A two-year work plan provides for the prioritization of planning staff work and resources to ensure
completion of projects. It is important to note that staff efforts on work plan items need to be balanced
against the day to day development review and customer service requests.
The previous Planning Work Plan was adopted on July 3, 2013, and is due to expire on July 3, 2015.
The proposed work plan recommended by the Planning and Zoning Commission is provided on
Attachment 1. Project summaries for the recommended work plan items are provided as Attachment 2.
BACKGROUND OR DETAILED INFORMATION:
Purpose
Major work efforts of the Planning Division outside of development review and customer service have
historically been guided by an adopted work plan, which is a requirement of the Zoning Code and
identifies and prioritizes the various planning efforts by the Town.
The new Planning Work Plan includes significant work efforts for the Planning Division over the next two
years. A primary focus of the proposed Work Plan is completion of the Your Voice, Our Future project
(General Plan Update), which involves a significant commitment of resources and time. Therefore, the
Work Plan has been purposely adjusted to provide the necessary focus on this significant planning effort,
scheduled for completion in November 2016.
Report Card - Status of Previous Work Plan Items (Attachment 3)
Attachment 3 provides a report card on the status of items from the previous work plan.
A number of items have been completed, including:
Naranja Park Planning
ESL Amendment
Public Art Update
Zoning Code Amendments (various)
A number of items are on-going, including:
Your Voice, Our Future (General Plan update)
Conditional Use Criteria
The District (previously known as the "Arts & Culture District")
One item is being incorporated into The District and Form Based Code work plan items as follows:
Mixed Use
One item is being reconsidered as part of the Your Voice, Our Future project:
Tangerine Road Area Plan
Most of the remaining incomplete items have been incorporated into the new Work Plan. Staff is currently
working on two items assigned by Town Council outside of the last Work Plan: 1) Lighting code revisions
to address sign brightness; and 2) Neighborhood meeting code and standard operating procedures.
Strategic Implementation Program Progress Report (Attachment 4)
The Strategic Implementation Program (SIP) is a companion document to the Focus 2020 General Plan,
adopted in 2005. It is comprised of a set of actions which serve to implement the policies outlined in the
General Plan document. It is the practice of the Town to review the SIP in conjunction with the adoption
of a new Work Plan. An updated SIP Progress Report is provided as Attachment 4.
In summary, meaningful progress has been made, with over 80% of SIP items either being completed or
on-going. Of the remaining items, 10% were not pursued due to changes in conditions and 10% have not
been completed. Some of the incomplete items (Historic/Cultural Overlay, Open Space Management
Plan and Rezone all Town Parks to Open Space) were included on the draft Work Plan presented to the
Commission, but ultimately were not recommended by the Commission. These incomplete items have
been referred to the Your Voice, Our Future project for reconsideration and possible inclusion in the
General Plan Update.
Planning and Zoning Commission Action
The Work Plan was considered by the Planning and Zoning Commission on April 7, 2015. Staff
facilitated an exercise which enabled the Commission to achieve consensus on recommended Work
Plan items and also to provide relative priority of the items (high, medium and low).
In terms of public comment, the following was provided:
One resident spoke with regard to the difficulty of implementing the General Plan's vague policies
and spoke in support of Form Based Codes.
The Chamber of Commerce representative spoke in support of The District and the Arroyo Grande
/ Tangerine 550 annexations.
The Commission voted to recommend approval of the Work Plan as provided in Attachment 1. The draft
Commission minutes are provided on Attachment 5.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The predominance of items on the draft work plan are proposed to be completed using existing staff
The predominance of items on the draft work plan are proposed to be completed using existing staff
resources. The Your Voice, Our Future project is being completed using existing staff and the use of
outside consultant resources, which have been budgeted in the current fiscal year budget. Additional
outside services for the Your Voice, Our Future project are intended to be budgeted in subsequent
budget years.
SUGGESTED MOTION:
I MOVE to approve the Planning Division Two Year Work Plan (Fiscal Year 15-16 and Fiscal Year 16-17)
as provided on Attachment 1.
OR
I MOVE to direct staff to revise/modify the draft for further Town Council consideration,
specifically__________________________________.

GENERAL PLAN UPDATE
Planning Work Plan FY 15-16 & 16-17 Revision Date
April 7, 2015
SUMMARY
State law requires municipalities to update their General
Plan every ten years or less. The Oro Valley General Plan
was adopted and ratified by the voters in 2005. A new plan
will be acted upon in 2015 with final voter ratification in 2016
In 2013, Town Council initiated the “Your Voice, Our Future”
General Plan Update. To date, the Town has successfully
completed background studies and collected survey re-
sponses at various public outreach venues. Current work
includes developing plan elements and policies through
three separate committees focusing on development, com-
munity and the environment.
GOAL / PURPOSE
The goal of this project is to complete and adopt t he General Plan, including ratification by the
voters. The General Plan will provide the framework for future decision making policy by the
Town for the next ten years. Additionally, the Plan will include many topics including updated
policies, addressing many topics, including develop ment, circulation, parks and recreation, natu-
ral resources and public services.
This project is currently ongoing, with an overall timeframe for completion of 3.5 years. The tar-
get completion date is Fall 2016. This project is intended to be completed using DIS staff and
consultant resources. This multi-year project invo lves a significant commitment of staff re-
sources including most planning staff.
The vision and priorities of the Town are dynamic a nd change over time. The existing 2005 Gen-
eral Plan is nearing it’s 10 year lifespan and a ne w plan will provide an updated vision and poli-
cies aligned with current community priorities. The updated general plan will guide and inform
critical decisions about the Town's future and qual ity of life.

THE DISTRICT
Planning Work Plan FY 15-16 & 16-17 Revision Date
April 7, 2015
SUMMARY
Oro Valley is rich in arts and cultural opportunities. The District
project would explore approaches and possible locations for
“main street” focused development to create community gather-
ing areas and celebrate the Town’s culture.
The General Plan recommends promoting and sustaining the
arts and culture within Oro Valley. Further studies will explore
implementation methods of an arts and culture district or other
similar types of districts. This district could establish a commu-
nity focus on arts, cultural and historic venues and programs.
This project will involve inventory of existing venues, stakehold-
er outreach, funding strategies and code implementation
through an overlay district and/or form based zoning approach.
GOAL / PURPOSE
The goal of this work plan item is to provide community gathering areas and sense of place for the Town. A
formal district would support resident desires, tourism, economic development and the already existing arts
and culture identity of the town. Arts and culture are valued community assets which serve residents and
draws significant visitors to the Town.
This work plan item will commence in the Winter of 2015 using DIS staff and consultant resources.
Establishment of a community gathering area will establish a needed focus to successfully market and pro-
gram future events, contributing to the overall quality of life for Oro Valley residents and visitors. Visitors
contribute significantly to the local economy and capitalizing on Oro Valley’s strengths in the area of arts and
culture through enhanced marketing and focus will have a positive impact on revenues and community val-
ued assets.

TIMEFRAME & RESOURCES
Planning Work Plan FY 14-15 & 15-16 Revision Date
February 9, 2015
SUMMARY
The emphasis of the current conventional Zoning Code is
separation of uses. Under form based codes, the emphasis
is on the built form through the regulation of building height,
mass and intensity of use.
This project will evaluate the viability of establishing an alter-
native regulatory development option, particularly as an im-
plementing tool for The District, which will promote “main
street” type development. This form based alternative would
not replace the existing Zoning Code, but rather an option to
be used in specific appropriate areas.
GOAL / PURPOSE
The purpose of this project is to evaluate the viability of a form based code for land development regulation. This pro-
ject will include studies, analysis and evaluation of this option. It will also include drafting and implementation of a form
based code alternative.
This work plan item will be completed in the Spring 2016 using staff resources.
Form based codes focus on the form and massing of buildings in relation to one another, and the scale of streets. This
approach contrasts with conventional zoning’s focus on the segregation of land uses and the control of development
intensity through sometimes abstract and uncoordinated parameters (e.g., Floor Area Ratio, dwellings per acre, set-
backs and parking ratios), without specific focus on the resulting building form. A form based code alternative will pro-
vide new options and flexibility in achieving desirable development results, particularly with regard to the “main street”
type development envisioned as part of The District overlay.
An alternative zoning approach may provide a more effective option in certain areas, resulting in a more flexible and site
specific approach to land development.

COMPLETE STREETS POLICY
Planning Work Plan FY 15-16 & 16-17 Revision Date
April 7, 2015
SUMMARY
Complete streets is an approach to building roads with the
goal of creating design options for travel by all users includ-
ing pedestrians, people with disabilities, bicyclists, public
transportation and vehicles.
This work plan item will analyze best practices and develop
a complete streets policy which will guide new construction
or reconstruction of roads. The policy will establish design
criteria and requirements which will be implemented
through amendment to the zoning code, infrastructure
guidelines and related policies.
GOAL / PURPOSE
The goal of this amendment is to create street design options to best accommodate all travelers, including
pedestrians, people with disabilities, bicyclists, public transportation and vehicles.
This project will be completed during the Fall of 2016 using staff resources.
This project will benefit the community by promoting aesthetic and functional travel for all users of streets
within Oro Valley and ensuring that new or reconstructed roads utilize complete streets elements to sepa-
rate different modes of transportation.

ARROYO GRANDE / TANGERINE 550
Planning Work Plan FY 15-16 & 16-17 Revision Date
April 7, 2015
SUMMARY
Arroyo Grande is a 9,000 acre property owned by the State
of Arizona. The General Plan designates this area as Mas-
ter Planned Community and Village Center uses. A signifi-
cant portion of this area is also a designated wildlife linkage
and open space corridor between Santa Catalina with the
Tortolita Mountains, serving as an interconnected open
space network within the town, as well as within the region.
The Tangerine 550 property is 550 acres owned by the
State of Arizona and located at the gateway to Oro Valley at
Tangerine and Thornydale Roads
This work plan item originated on the 2010 Work Plan and
has been included on the current work plan for future Town
Council direction concerning the ultimate annexation of
these areas into Oro Valley. The Your Voice, Our Future
project has also identified a need for council action on this
item.
GOAL / PURPOSE
The purpose of this project is to work cooperatively with the State Land Department to establish an ap-
proach to annexation of these areas into Oro Valley.
This project will be coordinated with the General Plan and Council direction. A new timeframe will be recom-
mended and completed using DIS staff, with assistance from Economic Development.
This project will benefit the community as it will provide for planned development within these areas while
comprehensively conserving the wildlife linkage and open space. Conserving the most biologically valuable
asset will protect natural resources and continue to shape the Town’s character.

PARKING
Planning Work Plan FY 15-16 & 16-17 Revision Date
April 7, 2015
SUMMARY
The Zoning Code establishes the specific number of re-
quired parking spaces for residential and non-residential
land uses. Over time, these standards have become dated
as business types and practices evolve. Additionally, the
listing of uses is general in nature and does not address the
variety of land uses which are commonly developed.
This project will update and expand the parking require-
ments consistent with best practices and current standards.
GOAL / PURPOSE
The goal of this amendment is to update parking requirements and parking use listings.
This project will be completed during the Fall of 2016 using staff resources.
Updated parking uses and ratios will ensure the function of the zoning code remains effective. This project
will ensure adequate parking is provided to serve residential and non residential uses, while preventing over
parking of uses and limiting pavement of natural areas.

PERMITTED USE TABLE
Planning Work Plan FY 15-16 & 16-17 Revision Date
April 7, 2015
SUMMARY
A permitted use table sets forth the permitted uses allowed
within each base zoning district. The table lists all allowable
uses and denotes what district they are permitted within.
Over time, new uses evolve, necessitating a periodic update
of the use listings and allowable zoning districts for the Zon-
ing Code to remain an effective regulatory tool.
The amendment will update permitted uses within all resi-
dential and non-residential zoning districts.
GOAL / PURPOSE
The goal of this amendment is to update permitted use listing for all zoning districts. For example, catego-
ries such as video stores are outdated etc.
This project will be completed during the Fall of 2016 using staff resources.
Relevant zoning code updates will ensure the function of the zoning code remains effective and relevant.
Updating permitted uses will maintain clarity and consistency throughout the Zoning Code.

CONDITIONAL USE PERMITS
Planning Work Plan FY 15-16 & 16-17 Revision Date
April 7, 2015
SUMMARY
Conditional use permits (CUP) are required for uses with
significant impacts on adjacent land uses such as conven-
ience stores, gas stations and uses with drive thru windows.
The Zoning Code contains criteria for evaluating and decid-
ing CUP applications. This project will provide updated eval-
uation criteria designed to address impacts associated with
conditional uses such as traffic, parking, light and noise and
will provide an effective tool to be used in the evaluation and
decision making process.
This project will also evaluate what uses classified as condi-
tional uses and address issues relative to the process for
approval of conditional uses.
GOAL / PURPOSE
The goal of this project is to ensure that conditional uses are evaluated due to their associated impacts.
The purpose of this zoning code amendment is to establish criteria and a review process that effectively
addresses compatibility associated with conditional uses and lessen the impacts of these uses on adjoining
land uses.
This work plan item is in-going and will be completed in the Fall of 2015 using staff resources. The CUP cri-
teria, uses and process are currently being evaluated by DIS staff in conjunction with a subcommittee of the
Planning and Zoning Commission.
Conditional uses typically create a significant amount of public interest due to the real and perceived im-
pacts associated with the use. Updated criteria will provide an effective tool to decide whether a particular
location is suitable for the proposed conditional use. This work plan item will clarify what uses are classified
as conditional and establish an efficient process for approval.

SUMMARY
The Zoning Code must be regularly maintained to remain
effective. The Zoning Code lacks consistency with defini-
tions for senior care uses with terms used by the State. It is
also intended to evaluate appropriate development stand-
ards to address unique needs associated with senior care
uses.
GOAL / PURPOSE
The goal of this amendment is to establish clear definitions and development standards for senior care uses.
Such standards may include additional open space requirements and amenities to serve the needs of the resi-
dents
This work plan item will continue to improve the function and usability of the Zoning Code so that it remains
an effective regulatory tool to implement developing community policies. This amendments will improve zon-
ing administration, eliminate areas of conflict and provide clarity throughout the Zoning Code with regard to
senior care uses.

SUMMARY
The Zoning Code establishes the process and requirements
related to subdivision plat approval. The Zoning Code does
not provide a clear process nor requirements for minor final
plat amendments, which are currently processed according
to administrative policy.
The amendment will establish a formal review process and
identify requirements related to minor plat amendments.
GOAL / PURPOSE
The goal of the amendment is to define the review process and requirements for final subdivision plat
amendments. The project will assess what amendments may be approved administratively and what
amendments are more involved and warrant Town Council consideration and approval.
This project will be completed during the Fall of 2015 using staff resources.
Establishing a process for minor final plat amendments will address an area of the Zoning Code which is
currently undefined. Having a clear process and established requirements is essential for the efficient and
legally defensible process for amendment approval.

SUMMARY
The Zoning Code does not comprehensively address the
ability for eave projections, overhangs bay windows and
covered entry ways. The current criteria lack consistency
and does not permit typical allowances for projections over
required yard areas.
The amendment will update the Zoning Code and compre-
hensively address all projections into building setback areas.
GOAL / PURPOSE
The goal of this amendment is to comprehensively address projections into building setbacks and required
yards in single-family residential areas. This zoning code update will define requirements for covered entry
eaves and other typical projections for homes.
This project will be completed during the Spring of 2016 using staff resources.
Establishing uniform standards for projections will eliminate areas of conflict and provide clarity throughout
the Zoning Code. This amendment will permit projections into required yards which are typical to single
family homes.

WIRELESS COMMUNICATION FACILITIES
Planning Work Plan FY 15-16 & 16-17 Revision Date
April 7, 2015
SUMMARY
New approaches and technology in wireless communication
facility design have evolved and necessitate updating the
Zoning Code to ensure facilities are built with the least visual
impact possible. Additionally, federal laws have been re-
cently established and provide limitation on municipal review
of certain facility upgrades.
The Zoning Code currently contains vague criteria for evalu-
ating and reviewing the visual impact of wireless communi-
cation facilities and installations. This project will clarify re-
quirements to encourage approaches to conceal visibility of
the facility through stealth design methods. This project will
also provide updated evaluation criteria designed to corre-
spond with federal laws.
GOAL / PURPOSE
The purpose of this project is to establish clear requirements and approval processes for the use of stealth
approaches to lessen the visual and aesthetic impacts of wireless facilities. This project is also intended to
ensure that wireless communication facilities and installation are evaluated in compliance with federal laws.
This work plan item will be completed in the Spring of 2015 using staff resources..
Wireless communication facilities and installation projects typically create a significant amount of public in-
terest due to the visual and aesthetic impacts associated with the use. Updated criteria will provide an effec-
tive tool to evaluate whether a particular location is suitable for the proposed use. This project will clarify
what facilities are classified as conditional and clarify stealth requirements to address aesthetic issues.

SUMMARY
The Zoning Code does not provide a process for minor ad-
justments to setbacks to be administratively resolved.
These issues are common when a home is built with a small
setback encroachment, resulting in the need for a formal
variance application before the Board of Adjustment.
The amendment will establish a process which will enable
minor encroachments within established thresholds to be
resolved administratively.
GOAL / PURPOSE
The goal of the amendment is to allow for the efficient resolution of minor encroachments into setback areas.
This amendment will enable minor encroachments into setbacks areas to be resolved administratively,
avoiding a lengthy process to obtain a variance from the Board of Adjustments. These encroachments typi-
cally involve a small encroachment (less than a foot) which can be efficiently resolved at an administrative
level.

Overview 3
Oro Valley’s Land Use changes
reflect a maturing community
as commercial and
employment development play catch-
up to the extensive residential growth
of the Town. These changes have
served to support the development of
a full-service community. Additionally,
actions by the Town Council have
focused on continuing Oro Valley’s
tradition of high quality development
that is environmentally responsible to
the Sonoran Desert.
The implementation of the
Environmentally Sensitive Lands (ESL)
Ordinance is a critical land use control
identified by the Focus 2020 General
Plan.
Other Completed Action Items Include:
• Advanced an interconnected open
space system within the Town, as well
as within the region, by incorporating
these needs into land use planning and
community development efforts.
• Amended the Zoning Code to require
implementation of the Pedestrian/
Bicycle Plan and the Trails Plan in
evaluation and review of development
proposals within Growth Areas.
• Revised transmittal procedures to
ensure that all amendments to the
General Plan within, or within one-
quarter mile, of the planning areas
of other jurisdictions are sent to those
jurisdictions for comment.
• The Town established an advisory
committee, “ESL Public Advisiory
Committee”, to consider policies
and procedures for conservation
easements and holdings of open
space.
• Jointly developed and adopted
off-airport land use compatibility
controls, the La Cholla Airpark Area, to
protect the Airpark.
• Amended the Zoning Code to require
consideration of the adopted Transit
Plan in development applications.
4 Land Use
Highlights
Land Use
Completed Ongoing Incomplete
Land Use Actions
The Town’s Zoning Code includes
Design Guidelines which cannot
be static. The actions taken have

development with ongoing goals of
preserving natural landscape and
habitats. The outcome has progressed
the aesthetic and environmental
quality of Oro Valley.

6 Economic Development
Oro Valley’s economic future is
interwoven with its distinctive
natural setting highlighted
by its proximity to the Pusch Ridge
Wilderness, Coranado National
Forest, and Catalina State Park. The
actions taken by Town Council have
attempted to marry Oro Valley’s
economic and environmental identity
by progressing business interests while
maintaining the community’s vision
and values.
The Campus-style employment center
at Innovation Park is a major economic
driver for the town. In order to ensure
that this center, and others like it, fit
into Oro Valley’s built environment, the
Town’s Design Standards have been
reviewed and amended to further the
appearance and aesthetic quality of
these centers.
Other Completed Action Items Include:
• Incorporated an Economic Vitality
Model into the Impact Analysis for

Economic Development Actions
The Cost of Development Element
of the General Plan articulates
the Town’s interest in ensuring
that new development in Oro Valley
does its fair share to perpetuate the
high standard for infrastructure that
the Town has established since its
incorporation.
One of the major accomplishments
in this section, was to ensure that
new development is covering the
capital cost of new infrastructure. To
help understand development costs,
the Town preforms a comprehensive
review of its development-related
revenue stream as a part of its
annual budgetary process. Impact
fees and construction of new
facilities continue to be required of
all new development.
Other Completed Items Include:
• Implemented a proactive
annexation study to prioritize
proposed annexations,
concentrating on those proposals
that create efficiency in service
provision by the Town.

upgrades to existing regional
facilities, and determined if new
development can legally be
assessed responsibility for the
improvement of each facility. For
example impact fees cover regional
facilities such as: major roads,
libraries, and parks.

completing the actions identified in the
Focus 2020 General Plan. Efforts to-
date have spanned across numerous
departments and have involved many
community partners, Boards and
Commissions, and citizens.
The General Plan is a working document.
It is the result of the collective efforts of
citizens, elected and appointed officials,
community groups, individuals, and
agencies who have spent countless
hours developing a framework for future
development. The General Plan, has to
be updated periodically (and by law) to
remain relevant to Oro Valley’s evolving
needs.
Completed items in this document
should be celebrated, but part of the
process was also to identify problem
areas and deficiencies. A number of key
actions require attention in the near term
to stay on track to meet our Plan goals.
For example, Parks and Recreation, Arts
and Culture, and Archeological and
Historic resources, three of the Town’s
most citizen service-oriented elements,
each have a number of important
incomplete action items.
All action items, complete and
incomplete, were reviewed and
evaluated for current relevance. This
information will be used to inform the
2015 General Plan Update, the Planning
Commission Work Plan, the Capital
Improvement Plan, and the Annual
Budget.
This document has identified the Town of
Oro Valley’s progress in completing the
actions enumerated in the Focus 2020
General Plan in order to actively further
its citizen-based goals and needs.

MOTION carried , 6-0 . with Tom Drazazgowski , Commissioner abstained .

ALLOW ILLUMINATED WINDOW SIGN(S) AND SECTION 28.6.B. TO ALLOW

-Proposal
-W indow Signs
-Illuminated Window Sign

-Balloon Height
-General Plan
-Conclusion
Chairman Rodman opened the public hearing .
Don Bristow , Oro Valley Resident , stated that Oro Valley businesses have fa iled to
comply with the town code on illuminated window signs without consistent
enforcement. Since 2010 the Town has made 30 changes to the sign cod e . It has
been said that each of these changes meet the general plan goals and policies . The
Planning Comm ission should not recommend approva l of th is request. There is no
evidence that businesses are in support of this code change and there is no factional
April 7, 20 15 Pl annin g and Zo ning Co mmi ss ion Page 2 o f6
evidence that illuminated window signs improve advertising effectiveness . Illuminated
window signs do not meet the two criteria for signs in Oro Valley : identification or
direction .
Mr. Bristow stated it has been decided that not allowing balloons is a serious short
coming in the Oro Valley sign code. There has been no data collected that supports
allowing balloons. The proposed usage does not comply with the general plan policies.
Bill Adler , Oro Valley resident , commented that signs are regulated out of public interest
not private interest. Staff mentioned one policy but overlooked the second, signage is
intended for identification not advertising . Oro Valley has accommodated businesses
and where does it stop? There is no evidence that these signs generate business . The
general plan and the sign code should be relied upon.
Dave Perry Oro Valley resident and President of the Oro Valley Chamber of
Commerce , stated that the Chamber stands in support of the zoning code
amendment. It is believed that additional lighted signs within 6 square foot of a
storefront window will allow Oro Valley businesses to more effectively advertise their
goods and services. This allowance would further help Oro Valley businesses be
successful. Most retailers' signs are visible within the shopping center , an additional
lighted sign in a business store front would not impact Oro Valley residents
aesfhetically.
It is innocent to fly balloons at your grand opening and businesses should be permitted
to celebrate 4 or 5 days as recommended . Adoption of these two zoning code
amendments would be one more indication that Oro Valley is truly open for business .
Chairman Rodman closed the public hearing .
MOTION: A motion was made by Commissioner Drazazgowski and seconded by
Commissioner Hitt to recommend approval of the Zoning Code Amendment to Section
28 .5.B to allow illuminated signs in the window sign display area as provided in
Attachment 1.
MOTION carried, 6-1 with Commissioner Barrett opposed.
MOTION: A motion was made by Vice-Chair Leedy and seconded by Commissioner
Hurt to recommend approval of the Zoning Code Amendment to Section 28 .6 .B allowing
balloons for grand opening events or change in ownership as provided in Attachment 1.
MOTION carried , 6-1 with Commissioner Barrett opposed .
3. DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE ACTION ON THE PLANNING DIVISION TWO
YEAR WORK PLAN (FISCAL YEAR 15-16 AND FISCAL YEAR 16-17)
INCLUDES LONG RANGE PLANS AND ZONING CODE AMENDMENTS
April 7, 2015 Planning and Zoning Commission Page 3 of 6
Chad Daines , Principal Planner, presented the following :
-Planning Work Plan FY 15/16 -16/17
-Why a Work Plan?
-Development Review Team Tasks
-Status of General Plan Implementation (SIP)
-Planning Work Plan FY 13-14 Report Card
-Your Voice/Our Future (General Plan Update)
-The District
-The District: Retro-fit
-Form-based Code
-Complete Streets
-Arroyo GrandefTangerine 550
-Historic overlay/Open Space/Rezone Parks
-Zoning Code Amendments
-Discussion
Bill Adler, Oro Valley resident, stated that the work plan did not get to the items that
were priority . Part of the problem is that we rely on the general plan for this work plan,
which is a mistake. Most policies in the general plan cannot be implemented , the
policies are not worded specific enough so they lend themselves to be translated into an
ordinance . Form based code is an alternative to conventional zoning, which focuses on
uses . Mr. Adler is against the rezoning of parks to open space , which would conflict
with sports tourism.
Dave Perry , Oro Valley resident , stated that the Chamber started off with the concept
of trying to create downtown Oro Valley and have abandoned that idea , because there
is no practical way to do that. You can have an art and culture district and redevelop
some existing infrastructure and buildings to accomplish the same goal. From his
prospective , Arroyo Grande and Tangerine 550 are something that local government
should look at. Mr. Perry went on to comment that Oro Valley is running out of
undeveloped property .
Staff facilitated an exercise with the Commission which accomplished the following:
-Identified additional work plan items suggested by individual Commissioners
-Reduced the complete list down to a final list based on Commission consensus
-Prioritized the final list into high, medium and low priorities
MOTION: A motion was made by Vice-Chair Leedy and seconded by Commissioner
Hilt The Commission recommended approval of the following work plan items :
High Priority
