Meeting Date:01/18/2017
Requested by: Stacey Lemos Submitted By:Wendy Gomez, Finance
Department:Finance
Information
SUBJECT:
Fiscal Year 2016/17 Financial Update through October 2016
RECOMMENDATION:
This item is for information only.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
In the General Fund (see Attachment A), revenues collected through October totaled
$10.3 million or 31.2% of the budget amount of $33.1 million. Year-to-date expenditures
through October totaled $9.7 million or 29.2% of the budget amount of $33.2 million.
In the Highway Fund (see Attachment B), revenues collected through October totaled
$1.1 million or 29.8% of the budget amount of $3.6 million. Year-to-date expenditures
through October totaled $1.4 million or 28.8% of the budget amount of $4.7 million.
In the Bed Tax Fund (see Attachment C), revenues collected through October totaled
$237,799 or 21.8% of the budget amount of $1.1 million. Year-to-date expenditures
through October totaled $425,649 or 35.6% of the budget amount of $1.2 million.
In the Community Center Fund (see Attachments D-1, D-2 and D-3), revenues collected
through October totaled $1.6 million or 24.4% of the budget amount of $6.6 million.
Year-to-date expenditures through October totaled $2.1 million or 30.6% of the budget
amount of $6.9 million.
BACKGROUND OR DETAILED INFORMATION:
GENERAL FUND
Attachment A shows General Fund revenues and expenditures through October, as well
as year-end estimates for each category. The estimated year-end projections in the
General Fund are as follows:
Revenues $33,350,124
Revenues $33,350,124
Less:
Expenditures ($33,114,919)
Less:
Council-Approved Use of Contingency:
-Town Manager Recruitment Process ($30,000) Approved July 6, 2016
Estimated Increase in Fund Balance $ 205,205
General Fund Revenues
Local sales tax collections in the General Fund total $4.7 million or 29.9% of the
budget amount of $15.7 million. Please see Attachment F for a monthly,
year-over-year tracking of General Fund local sales tax collections, including
construction and utility sales tax.
License and permit revenues total $675,942 or 41.8% of the budget amount of $1.6
million. These revenues are estimated to come in over budget by $49,000 or
3.0% based on trending actual collections through year-end.
State shared revenues total $3.6 million or 33.3% of the budget amount of $10.8
million. These revenues are estimated to come in over budget by about $150,000 or
1.4% due to state-shared income taxes. This budget was set conservatively due to
the unknown impact of special census efforts undertaken across numerous Phoenix
Valley communities last year.
Charges for Services revenues total $755,014 or 35.5% of the budget amount of
$2.1 million. These revenues are estimated to come in over budget by about
$11,000 or 0.5% based on trending actual collections through year-end.
It is anticipated that rising interest rates will cause increased volatility in the Town's
investment portfolio as shown in the Interest Income revenue category. While this
may cause temporary fluctuation as market values decline due to rising yields
(market values move inversely to the direction of interest rates), this volatility tends
to average out over longer periods of time as funds are invested at higher yields.
All other General Fund revenues are projected to come in on budget at this time.
Please note that year-end estimates are subject to change.
General Fund Expenditures
Expenditures are projected to come in under budget by about $86,000 or 0.3% due
to estimated personnel savings. Please note these figures are subject to change.
HIGHWAY FUND
Highway Fund Revenues
Highway Fund Revenues
State shared highway user funds total $991,518 or 33.1% of the budget amount of
$3.0 million.
License and permit revenues total $45,570 or 86.8% of the budget amount of
$52,500. These revenues are estimated to come in over budget by about $14,000
or 26.3% based on trending actual collections through year-end.
Highway Fund Expenditures
Expenditures are projected to come in under budget by about $22,000 or 0.5% due
to estimated personnel savings. Please note these figures are subject to change.
BED TAX FUND
Bed Tax Revenues
Bed tax revenues total $234,965 or 21.6% of the budget amount of $1.1 million.
Bed Tax Fund revenues are projected to come in over budget by $3,500 or 0.3%
due to a donation for the Town's annual tree lighting event.
Bed Tax Fund Expenditures
Expenditures are projected to come in on budget at this time.
COMMUNITY CENTER FUND
Attachment D-1 shows the consolidated financial status of the Community Center Fund
with all revenues and expenditures from Troon and Town-managed operations.
Attachment D-2 shows the monthly line item detail for the Troon-managed operations,
specifically revenues and expenditures associated with the golf, tennis, and food and
beverage operations. The totals in the revenue and expenditure categories
in Attachment D-2 tie to the Contracted Operating Revenues and Expenditures in
Attachment D-1.
Attachment D-3 shows the revenues and expenditures for the Troon-managed food and
beverage operations only.
Community Center Fund Revenues
Revenues in the Community Center Fund total $1,611,233 or 24.4% of the budget
amount of $6.6 million. Contracted operating revenues from Troon total $734,494
and Town operating revenues total $224,278. Local sales tax revenues from the
dedicated half-cent sales tax total $647,978 or 30.8% of the budget amount of $2.1
million.
Local sales tax revenues from the dedicated half-cent sales tax are estimated to
come in over budget by about $68,000, or 3.2%, due to moderate growth being
observed in retail and restaurant/bar sales tax collections. Please note this estimate
is subject to change.
Contracted operating revenues from Troon are estimated to come in under budget
by about $606,000 or 16.2%, based on Troon's forecast through the remainder of
the fiscal year.
Town operating revenues are estimated to come in over budget by $28,000 or
3.8%, due to projected recreation program revenues, as well as swim team and
swim lesson revenues.
Community Center Expenditures
Expenditures in the Community Center Fund total $2,107,125 or 30.6% of the
budget amount of $6.9 million. Contracted operating expenditures from Troon total
$1,755,611 and Town operating expenditures total $301,343. Capital outlay
expenditures through October total $50,172, due primarily to golf course cart path
improvements.
Contracted operating expenditures from Troon are estimated to come in under
budget by about $48,000 or 0.9%, based on Troon's forecast through the remainder
of the fiscal year.
Town operating expenditures are projected to come in on budget at this time.
Capital outlay is projected to come in under budget by $440,500 or 83.6%. This is
due primarily to the timing of the ADA improvements budgeted at the Community
Center. Staff is awaiting completion of the Townwide ADA transition study before
beginning construction on these improvements.
Year-end estimate assumptions include the annual loan repayment of $120,000 to
the General Fund.
The year-end estimated fund balance in the Community Center Fund is a negative
$127,508.
Community Center Performance Comparison to Last Fiscal Year
In comparison to last fiscal year, contracted operating expenditures from Troon are
down 22%, or nearly $487,000. This is due to concerted efforts by management to
reduce costs and improve Troon's operating loss, which through October is
approximately $1,021,000. Through October of last fiscal year, the loss was
$1,488,000.
Food and beverage operations have also improved significantly over last fiscal year.
The year-to-date loss through October is $65,601. Last fiscal year, the loss through
October was nearly double, at $125,982. This is again due to targeted efforts by
management to reduce costs and improve financial performance.
Please see Attachments A, B, and C for additional details on the General Fund, Highway
Fund and Bed Tax Fund. See Attachments D-1, D-2 and D-3 for additional details on the
Community Center Fund.
See Attachment E for a fiscal year-to-date consolidated summary of all Town Funds. It is
important to note the negative fund balance in the Benefit Self Insurance Fund of
($178,711) through October. Due to higher than expected medical claims costs, the
current monthly Town and employee contributions to this fund have been insufficient to
fully cover these costs. As a result, staff may request Council approval for a transfer of
additional funds into the Self Insurance Fund if this trend does not reverse prior to fiscal
year-end.
See Attachment F for a breakdown of monthly, year-over-year local sales tax collections
for the General Fund.

BACKGROUND OR DETAILED INFORMATION:
GENERAL FUND
Attachment A shows General Fund revenues and expenditures through November, as
well as year-end estimates for each category. The estimated year-end projections in the
General Fund are as follows:
Revenues $33,687,857
Less:
Expenditures ($33,145,627)
Less:
Council-Approved Use of Contingency:
-Town Manager Recruitment Process ($30,000) Approved July 6, 2016
Estimated Increase in Fund Balance $ 512,230
General Fund Revenues
Local sales tax collections in the General Fund total $6.3 million or 40.3% of the
budget amount of $15.7 million. These revenues are estimated to come in over
budget by about $34,000 or 0.2% based on observed trends primarily in the cable
franchise fee revenue category. Please see Attachment F for a monthly,
year-over-year tracking of General Fund local sales tax collections, including
construction and utility sales tax.
License and permit revenues total $827,399 or 51.2% of the budget amount of $1.6
million. These revenues are estimated to come in over budget by about $344,000 or
21.3% based on current trends and updated forecasts for residential and
commercial permitting activity through the remainder of the fiscal year.
State shared revenues total $4.5 million or 41.7% of the budget amount of $10.8
million. These revenues are estimated to come in over budget by about $230,000 or
2.1% due to state-shared income, sales and vehicle license/gasoline taxes. These
budgets were set conservatively due to the unknown impact of special census
efforts undertaken across numerous Phoenix Valley communities last year.
Charges for Services revenues total $932,051 or 43.8% of the budget amount of
$2.1 million. These revenues are estimated to come in over budget by about
$24,000 or 1.1% based on trending actual collections through year-end.
Interest Income revenues reflect an unrealized loss of $74,140 through November.
It is anticipated that rising interest rates will cause increased volatility in the Town's
investment portfolio. While this may cause temporary fluctuation as market values
decline due to rising yields (market values move inversely to the direction of interest
rates), this volatility tends to average out over longer periods of time as funds are
invested at higher yields. For FY 16/17, these revenues are estimated to come in
under budget by about $86,000 or 96.8%.
All other General Fund revenues are projected to come in on budget at this time.
Please note that year-end estimates are subject to change.
General Fund Expenditures
Expenditures are projected to come in under budget by about $56,000 or 0.2% due
to estimated personnel savings. Please note these figures are subject to change.
HIGHWAY FUND
Highway Fund Revenues
State shared highway user funds total $1.2 million or 41.2% of the budget amount of
$3.0 million. These revenues are estimated to come in over budget by about
$135,000 or 4.5%. This budget was set conservatively due to the unknown impact
of special census efforts undertaken across numerous Phoenix Valley communities
last year.
Interest Income revenues reflect a loss of nearly $15,000 through November, and
are estimated to come in under budget by about $19,000 or 66.5%. Please
reference the discussion on interest income revenues in the General Fund notes
above.
License and permit revenues total $47,591 or 90.6% of the budget amount of
$52,500. These revenues are estimated to come in over budget by about $14,000
or 26.3% based on trending actual collections through year-end.
Highway Fund Expenditures
Expenditures are projected to come in under budget by about $23,000 or 0.5% due
to estimated personnel savings. Please note these figures are subject to change.
BED TAX FUND
Bed Tax Fund Revenues
Bed tax revenues total $319,843 or 29.5% of the budget amount of $1.1 million.
Interest Income revenues reflect a loss of $4,086 through November, and are
estimated to come in under budget by about $4,800 or 78.3%. Please reference the
discussion on interest income revenues in the General Fund notes above.
The miscellaneous revenues of $3,500 are due to a donation for the Town's annual
tree lighting event.
Bed Tax Fund Expenditures
Expenditures are projected to come in on budget at this time.
COMMUNITY CENTER FUND
Attachment D-1 shows the consolidated financial status of the Community Center Fund
with all revenues and expenditures from Troon and Town-managed operations.
Attachment D-2 shows the monthly line item detail for the Troon-managed operations,
specifically revenues and expenditures associated with the golf, tennis, and food and
beverage operations. The totals in the revenue and expenditure categories
in Attachment D-2 tie to the Contracted Operating Revenues and Expenditures in
Attachment D-1.
Attachment D-3 shows the revenues and expenditures for the Troon-managed food and
beverage operations only.
Community Center Fund Revenues
Revenues in the Community Center Fund total $2.1 million or 31.8% of the budget
amount of $6.6 million. Contracted operating revenues from Troon total $993,674
and Town operating revenues total $286,605. Local sales tax revenues from the
dedicated half-cent sales tax total $818,680 or 38.9% of the budget amount of $2.1
million.
Local sales tax revenues from the dedicated half-cent sales tax are estimated to
come in over budget by about $68,000 or 3.2% due to moderate growth being
observed in retail and restaurant/bar sales tax collections. Please note this estimate
is subject to change.
Contracted operating revenues from Troon are estimated to come in under budget
by about $642,000 or 17.1%, based on Troon's forecast through the remainder of
the fiscal year.
Town operating revenues are estimated to come in over budget by $28,000 or
3.8%, due to projected recreation program revenues, as well as swim team and
swim lesson revenues.
Community Center Fund Expenditures
Expenditures in the Community Center Fund total $2,695,088 or 39.1% of the
budget amount of $6.9 million. Contracted operating expenditures from Troon total
$2,245,257 and Town operating expenditures total $373,481. Capital outlay
expenditures through November total $76,350, due to golf course cart path
improvements and fitness equipment.
Contracted operating expenditures from Troon are estimated to come in under
budget by about $54,000 or 1.0%, based on Troon's forecast through the remainder
of the fiscal year.
Town operating expenditures are projected to come in on budget at this time.
Capital outlay is projected to come in under budget by $440,500 or 83.6%. This is
due primarily to the timing of the ADA improvements budgeted at the Community
Center. Staff is awaiting completion of the Townwide ADA transition study before
beginning construction on these improvements.
Year-end estimate assumptions include the annual loan repayment of $120,000 to
the General Fund.
The year-end estimated fund balance in the Community Center Fund is a negative
$157,409.
Community Center Performance Comparison to Last Fiscal Year
In comparison to last fiscal year, contracted operating expenditures from Troon are
down 16%, or nearly $413,000. This is due to efforts by management to reduce
costs and improve Troon's operating loss, which through November is
approximately $1,252,000. Through November of last fiscal year, the loss was
approximately $1,614,000.
Food and beverage operations have also improved over last fiscal year. The
year-to-date loss through November is $77,259. Last fiscal year, the loss through
November was nearly double, at $148,883. This is again due to efforts by
management to reduce costs and improve financial performance.
Please see Attachments A, B, and C for additional details on the General Fund, Highway
Fund and Bed Tax Fund. See Attachments D-1, D-2 and D-3 for additional details on the
Community Center Fund.
See Attachment E for a fiscal year-to-date consolidated summary of all Town Funds. It is
important to note the negative fund balance in the Benefit Self Insurance Fund of
($221,187) through November. Due to higher than expected medical claims costs, the
current monthly Town and employee contributions to this fund have been insufficient to
fully cover these costs. As a result, staff may request Council approval for a transfer of
additional funds into the Self Insurance Fund if this trend does not reverse prior to fiscal
year-end.
See Attachment F for a breakdown of monthly, year-over-year local sales tax collections
for the General Fund.

SUBJECT:
Resolution No. (R)17-03, approving the Intergovernmental Transportation Funding
Agreement between the Regional Transportation Authority of Pima County and Town of
Oro Valley for Design and Construction of a Pedestrian and Traffic Signal at La Canada
Drive and the entrance of the Town of Oro Valley Community Center
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The Town of Oro Valley and the Regional Transportation Authority of Pima County (RTA)
are entering into an Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) for the RTA to provide funding
in the amount of $500,000 for the design and installation of a pedestrian and traffic light
at La Cañada Dr and the entrance of the Town of Oro Valley Community Center to
improve both pedestrian and vehicular safety at the intersection. This IGA is scheduled
for consideration by the RTA Board on January 26.
BACKGROUND OR DETAILED INFORMATION:
During the FY 2017 budget, the Town of Oro Valley approved RTA funding for a
High-intensity Activated crossWalK (HAWK) in the amount of $250,000. During
discussions and evaluation of the intersection, it was determined that a full traffic light
would best serve pedestrians and vehicle movement at the intersection. Through a
strong partnership with the Regional Transportation Authority, the HAWK signal was
re-evaluated and the scope modified to a full traffic-controlled intersection by this IGA.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact for this IGA amendment. The RTA will provide all of the funding
for the design and construction of this traffic signal . After the design is complete, the
project will move into the construction phase. The RTA will provide $500,000 for the
complete project.
SUGGESTED MOTION:
I MOVE to (approve / deny) Resolution No. (R)17-03, authorizing the Intergovernmental
Transportation Funding Agreement between the Regional Transportation Authority of
Pima Council and Town of Oro Valley for Design and Construction of a Pedestrian and
Traffic Signal at La Canada Drive and EL Conquistador

Meeting Date:01/18/2017
Requested by: Bayer Vella
Submitted By:Michael Spaeth, Community Development & Public Works
Department:Community Development & Public Works
Information
SUBJECT:
Request for approval of a Conceptual Architecture application for the Oro Valley Church
of the Nazarene, located at 500 W. Calle Concordia near the northeast corner of Calle
Concordia and Calle Buena Vista
RECOMMENDATION:
The Conceptual Design Review Board has recommended approval, subject to the
condition listed in Attachment 1.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The purpose of this request is to consider a Conceptual Architecture proposal
(Attachment 2) for an expansion of the Oro Valley Church of the Nazarene campus. The
church is located on an approximately 9-acre property at the northeast corner of Calle
Concordia and Calle Buena Vista (Attachment 3).
The proposal entails an approximately 25,000 sq.ft. building expansion. The majority of
the new area (23,500 sq.ft.) will be used as a gathering space for children and Sunday
School classrooms. The remainder (1,600 sq.ft) is planned as a choir/music room.
The design represents a southwest contemporary architectural style which includes:
Earth tone colors and materials including brick and stucco to match the existing
buildings;
Varied roof and wall planes
Cornicing and trellises.
The request is in conformance with the Town's Design Principles and applicable Design
Standards.
The Conceptual Design Review Board (CDRB) considered the applicant's proposal on
December 13, 2016 and has recommended approval, subject to the condition listed in
Attachment 1.
BACKGROUND OR DETAILED INFORMATION:
The church campus is located on the northeast corner of Calle Concordia and Calle
Buena Vista (Attachment 3) in the Linda Vista Citrus Tracks subdivision. The property is
surrounded by large-lot residential to the north, west and east (a property owned by the
Church) and medium-density residential to the south.
Existing Site Conditions
Approximately 9 acres in size
Several existing structures which make-up the Church campus
Proposed Improvements
25,000 square foot building expansion
23,5000 square feet as gathering space for children including Sunday school
classrooms
1,600 as a choir/music room
Approvals to Date
1937: Linda Vista Citrus Tracts Subdivision Plat approved
2001: Development Plan (Phase 1 and 2) approved by Town Council
2003: Phase 1 architecture approved
Having been built over a number of years, the Church campus includes several
variations of desert southwest architectural styles. Though the existing buildings vary,
they have consistent colors and materials. The applicant’s proposal draws upon this
established design theme and utilizes several colors and materials found throughout the
site. As such, the proposed building is compatible with the surrounding development and
the larger church property.
Conceptual Architectural Design Principles and Design Standards review
The Zoning Code establishes Design Principles and Design Standards to evaluate
architectural projects. A summary of the project's conformance with each is provided
below and a more extensive evaluation is provided in Attachment 4.
The proposed architecture represents a contemporary southwest style design that
incorporates desert tones, hues and materials. The predominant external materials are
brick and stucco that are similar to the surrounding structures within the campus.
The height and mass of the proposed buildings are appropriate to the area and will not
impact existing views of the Catalina's.
The proposed architecture provides significant façade articulation through the use of
several elements, including varied roof lines, wall articulation, material and color
variation.
Mechanical equipment will not be visible from nearby residences or streets as the
equipment will be located behind parapet walls. Furthermore, a condition has been
included in Attachment 1 requiring the rooftop mounted equipment to be painted to
match the roof to further minimize any potential visual impacts.
Public Participation
A neighborhood meeting is not required by the Zoning Code.
Public Notice has been provided as follows:
Posting at Town Hall
Posting on the Town website
All affected HOA's
The Conceptual Design Review Board (CDRB) considered the applicant's proposal on
December 13, 2016 and has recommended approval subject to the condition listed in

DESIGN PRINCIPLES AND STANDARDS ANALYSIS
Conceptual Architectural Design Principles, Section 22.9.D.5.b
The Zoning Code establishes Design Principles to evaluate architectural projects. An
evaluation of the applicant’s proposal with these Design Principles (in italics) is provided
below:
Design: building architectural design shall be appropriate for the climate and
characteristics of the Sonoran Desert, including indigenous and traditional textures,
colors, and shapes found in and around Oro Valley. All development shall maintain and
strengthen the high quality of design exemplified in Oro Valley through project creativity
and design excellence.
The proposed architecture represents a contemporary southwest style design that
incorporates desert tones, hues and materials. The predominant exter nal materials will
be brick and stucco similar to the surrounding structures found elsewhere on campus.
The design provides additional variety by incorporating trellising, lentils and accented
“pop-outs” on three corners of the main expansion building. To provide “four-sided”
architecture, a condition has been included in Attachment 1 to require the “pop-outs” on
all four corners.
Scale, height and mass: building scale, height and mass shall be consistent with the town -
approved intensity of the site, designated scenic corridors, and valued mountain views.
Buildings shall be designed to respect the scale of adjoining areas and should mitigate
the negative and functional impacts that arise from scale, bulk and mass.
The height and mass of the proposed buildings are appropriate to the area. Heights of
the expansion vary between 18 and 22 feet, well below the height of the existing sanctuary
at 29 feet. The proposed buildings are located in parts of the campus that are screened
from adjacent roadways by the existing structures and mature vegetation. The applicant’s
proposal will not impact existing views toward the Catalina’s.
Façade articulation: all building facades shall be fully articulated, including variation in
building massing, roof planes, wall planes, and surface articulation. Architectural
elements including, but not limited to; overhangs, trellises, projections, awnings, insets,
material, and texture shall be used to create visual interest that contribute to a building’s
character.
The proposed architecture provides significant façade articulation through the use of
several elements, including:
Varied roof lines
Wall articulation
Material variation
Color variation
Screening: building design and screening strategies shall be implemented to con ceal the
view of loading areas, refuse enclosures, mechanical equipment, appurtenances, and
utilities from adjacent public streets and neighborhoods.
Mechanical equipment will not be visible from nearby residences or streets as the
equipment will be located behind parapet walls. A condition has been included in
Attachment 1 requiring the rooftop mounted equipment to be painted to match the roof to
further minimize any potential visual impacts.
Addendum “A” Design Standards
The proposed models are in conformance with the Design Standards by providing
significant façade articulation, roofline variation, a varied color and material palette, surface
articulations and design elements which are consistent with the modern southwest style
architecture.

Concordia (Attachment 3).
The proposed Conceptual Architecture includes the following:
25,000 square foot building expansion
o 23,5000 square feet as gathering space for children and school;
o 1,600 as a choir/music room
The proposed architecture represents a southwest contemporary design that incorporates
desert colors and elements. It features predominantly earth tone colors with brick and stucco
matching the existing buildings on campus. The design also includes varied rooflines, cornicing
and trellises. The proposal is complimentary to the existing buildings on the site.
The proposed Conceptual Architecture is in conformance with the Town’s Design Principles
and applicable design standards.

The church campus is located on the northeast corner of Calle Concordia and Calle Buena
Vista (Attachment 3) in the Linda Vista Citrus Tracks subdivision. The property is surrounded
by large-lot residential to the north, west and east (a property owned by the Church) and
medium-density residential to the south.
Existing Site Conditions
Lot size: Approximately 9 acres
Several existing structures which make-up the Church campus
Proposed Improvements
25,000 square foot building expansion
o 23,5000 square feet as gathering space for children including a playground
o 1,600 as a choir/music room
Approvals to Date
1937: Linda Vista Citrus Tracks Subdivision Plat approved
2001: Development Plan (Phase 1 and 2) approved
2003: Phase 1 architecture approved
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
Having been built over a number of years, the Church campus includes several variations of
desert southwest architectural styles. Though the existing buildings vary, they have consistent
colors and materials to ensure a harmonious campus. The applicant’s proposal draws upon
this established design theme and utilizes several colors and materials found throughout the
site. As such, the proposed building is compatible with the surrounding development and larger
Church property.
Conceptual Architectural Design Principles, Section 22.9.D.5.b
The Zoning Code establishes Design Principles to evaluate architectural projects. An
evaluation of the applicant’s proposal with these Des ign Principles (in italics) is provided
below:
Design: building architectural design shall be appropriate for the climate and characteristics of
the Sonoran Desert, including indigenous and traditional textures, colors, and shapes found in
and around Oro Valley. All development shall maintain and strengthen the high quality of
design exemplified in Oro Valley through project creativity and design excellence.
The proposed architecture represents a contemporary southwest style design that incorporates
desert tones, hues and materials. The predominant exter nal materials will be brick and stucco
similar to the surrounding structures found elsewhere on campus. The design provides
additional variety by incorporating trellising, lentils and accented “pop-outs” on three corners of
OV1602761 Oro Valley Church of the Nazarene Conceptual Architecture Page 3 of 4
Conceptual Design Review Board Staff Report
the main expansion building. To provide “four-sided” architecture, a condition has been
included in Attachment 1 to require the “pop-outs” on all four corners.
Scale, height and mass: building scale, height and mass shall be consistent with the town -
approved intensity of the site, designated scenic corridors, and valued mountain views.
Buildings shall be designed to respect the scale of adjoining areas and should mitigate the
negative and functional impacts that arise from scale, bulk and mass.
The height and mass of the proposed buildings are appropriate to the area. Heights of the
expansion vary between 18 and 22 feet, well below the height of the existing sanctuary at 29
feet. The proposed buildings are located in parts of the campus that are screened from
adjacent roadways by the existing structures and mature vegetation. The applicant’s proposal
will not impact existing views toward the Catalina’s.
Façade articulation: all building facades shall be fully articulated, including variation in building
massing, roof planes, wall planes, and surface articulation. Architectural elements including,
but not limited to; overhangs, trellises, projections, awnings, insets, material, and texture shall
be used to create visual interest that contribute to a building’s character.
The proposed architecture provides significant façade articulation through the use of several
elements, including:
Varied roof lines
Wall articulation
Material variation
Color variation
Screening: building design and screening strategies shall be implemented to con ceal the view
of loading areas, refuse enclosures, mechanical equipment, appurtenances, and utilities from
adjacent public streets and neighborhoods.
Mechanical equipment will not be visible from nearby residences or streets as the equipment
will be located behind parapet walls. A condition has been included in Attachment 1 requiring
the rooftop mounted equipment to be painted to match the roof to further minimize any
potential visual impacts.
Design Standards Analysis
The proposed models are in conformance with the Design Standards by providing significant
façade articulation, roofline variation, a varied color and material palette, surface articulations and
design elements which are consistent with the modern southwest style architecture.
PUBLIC PARTICIPATION:
A neighborhood meeting is not required by the Zoning Code.

SUBJECT:
COURTESY REVIEW OF THE CONCEPTUAL SITE PLAN AND ARCHITECTURE FOR
THE LEMAN CHARTER SCHOOL LOCATED NEAR THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF
LA CAÑADA DRIVE AND TANGERINE ROAD (This item is for information purposes
only and no action will be taken on this item)
RECOMMENDATION:
The proposed charter school does not have a recommendation because it is exempt
from zoning by state law.
To improve the project’s compatibility with the surrounding area, staff has requested that
the applicant consider incorporating the design suggestions in Attachment 1.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The applicant has agreed to a courtesy review of the Conceptual Site Plan and
Architecture for the Leman Charter School (grades K- 8), which is located near the
northwest corner of La Cañada Drive and Tangerine Road in the northern portion of the
future Miller Ranch Development (Attachment 2).
The site plan design (Attachment 3) proposes the following:
66,000 sf building for 700 students (phase 1)
32,000 sf building for an additional 400 students (phase 2)
Two access points on La Cañada Drive
The proposed architecture (Attachment 3) contains:
Modern Southwestern style architecture which is consistent with a tech park
development
Building height of 2-story, up to 32’, 8”
Several colors and materials, including stucco finish, metal roof and brick veneer
Town Council typically makes determinations on Conceptual Design applications with
the goal of ensuring community fit. In this case, the review is an opportunity for the
Council and the public to learn about the project and have questions answered, as
charter schools are exempt from the Town's design review process. The project is,
however, required to meet the Town’s public safety requirements related to building,
drainage and traffic (e.g., connection to La Cañada Drive).
The Engineering Staff is currently reviewing the project’s traffic report to address
potential onsite and offsite traffic impacts. This review will help ensure the school has
sufficient onsite queuing so that motorists are not idling in La Cañada Drive during peak
hours. Staff will provide an update on the traffic report at the January 18 Town Council
meeting.
It is worth noting that the applicant has done a good job working with staff and meets
90% of the Zoning Code. At the December 13, 2016, Conceptual Design Review Board
meeting the applicant agreed to address a previous zoning concern related to screening
the rooftop mechanical equipment because it is within the project budget. Additionally,
the applicant has addressed the neighbors’ concerns with outdoor lighting and screening
the development along the north property line.
BACKGROUND OR DETAILED INFORMATION:
Land Use Context:
The property is vacant and has a zoning designation of Technological Park (T-P). The
existing land use and zoning for the surrounding area are provided in Attachments 2 and
4.
Approvals-To-Date:
2004: Major General Plan Amendment to Commerce Office Park
2007: Rezoning to Technological Park (T-P)
2010: Master Development Plan
2012 to 2016: Master Development Plan Extensions
Existing Site Conditions:
8.6-acres
Property is vacant
One access point on La Cañada Drive
Proposed Improvements:
The site plan design (Attachment 3) proposes the following:
Phase 1
66,000 sf building
2-stories, up to 32’ 8” in height
36 classrooms, offices, cafeteria, gym, playground and parking areas
Add a second access point on La Cañada Drive
Add a second access point on La Cañada Drive
Phase 2
32,000 sf building
2-story, up to 32’ 8” in height
20 classrooms, offices and meeting space
The proposed architecture (Attachment 3) contains:
Modern Southwestern style architecture which is consistent with a tech park
development
Façade articulation and fenestration
Several colors and materials, including stucco finish, copper metal roof and brick
veneer
Conceptual Site Plan Review:
The applicant has worked extensively with staff on the proposed site plan design
(Attachment 3). After several site plan revisions, the proposed charter school meets
90% of the Zoning Code (e.g., building setbacks, parking dimensions, building height,
landscape bufferyards, parking islands, etc.).
The proposed site plan does not meet the parking and screening requirements of the
Zoning Code as shown in the table below. The purpose of these provisions is to improve
the project’s compatibility with the surrounding area.
Zoning Provisions Required Proposed
Total number of parking
spaces 288 spaces 219
spaces
Screen walls 5' tall wall along north and east property lines; 3.5' tall wall
along west property line None
The applicant’s proposal to provide 69 less parking spaces may create an overflow of
parking into the adjacent streets and future tech park development. To avoid potential
parking issues and traffic hazards, the applicant was asked to consider installing at least
40 additional parallel parking spaces along the west property line.
To address the parking concern, the applicant has informed the CDRB and staff that the
proposed loading areas will be used as additional parking spaces during major school
events (e.g., assemblies, fundraisers, plays, etc.).
With regards to screening, the applicant was also asked to consider providing the
following perimeter walls to improve the project’s compatibility with the surrounding area:
5’ tall block wall along the west and north property lines will reduce the visibility of
vehicles during drop-off/pick-up hours for nearby residents
3.5’ tall block wall along the east property line will minimize vehicle headlight
pollution into La Cañada Drive
In response, the applicant has informed the CDRB and staff that dense vegetation will
be installed in the adjacent landscape bufferyards abutting the residential properties and
La Cañada Drive.
Conceptual Architecture Review:
The Conceptual Architecture (Attachment 3) has been reviewed and is in conformance
with the Design Review Principles. A complete analysis is provided in the CDRB staff
report Attachment 5.
Conceptual Design Review Board
A courtesy review of the Conceptual Site Plan and Architecture was provided at the
December 13, 2016 Conceptual Design Review Board meeting. The main topics
discussed at the meeting included incorporating the design suggestions in Attachment 1,
outdoor lighting, and screening the parking and drive aisles.
In response to the neighbor’s concern for lighting and screening, the applicant proposes
to 1) use LED and fully-shielded lights, 2) install no lights in the northern portion of the
development (playground area) and 3) provide dense vegetation along the northern
property line. The CDRB staff report and draft meeting minutes are provided as
Attachments 5 and 6, respectively.

DESIGN REVIEW SUBMITAL FOR:
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The proposed project is Leman Academy of Excellence, a public Pre-K thru
8th grade charter school. The site is an 8.6-acre parcel in the Miller Ranch
Planed Development. Phase I will comprise roughly 66,000 GSF with 36
classrooms on two levels, a main commons building, secure entrance lobby,
offices, meeting rooms, cafeteria, gym and performance platform. Phase I is
being developed for up to 700 students and a later Phase II for a total of up to
1,100 students.
ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN STRATEGY:
The building takes cues from its surrounding landscape to reflect the colors
of the desert. The large standing seam metal roofs are copper toned and
earth tones clad the walls. A selective use of blue is also implemented to
accentuate the pop outs and reflect the schools brand. Intersecting mases
are articulated and gradually broken up as they step up to the rear of the site.
The main entrance is marked by a storefront that overlooks the mountains
and is surrounded with brick cladding and hipped metal roof.

Conceptual Design Review Board Staff Report
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
Although charter schools are exempt from zoning, the applicant has made several site plan
revisions to improve the project’s conformance with zoning. These revisions include (but are not
limited to) increasing the total number of parking spaces from 134 to 219, adding landscape
bufferyards along the north and east property lines, and installing landscaped parking islands.
The following is a list of noteworthy zoning provisions (in italics) followed by staff’ commentary
for the proposed Conceptual Site Plan and Architecture.
1. Proposed Conceptual Site Plan
A. Zoning Code Analysis
The proposed charter school does not meet the parking and screening requirements
of the Zoning Code as shown in the table below. The purpose of these provisions is
to improve the project’s compatibility with the surrounding area.
Staff Commentary: The applicant’s proposal to provide 69 less parking spaces may
create an overflow of parking into the adjacent streets and future tech park
development. To avoid potential parking issues and traffic hazards, the applicant should
install at least 40 additional parallel parking spaces along the west property line.
The applicant should also install the required walls to improve the project’s compatibility
with the surrounding area. The drop off/pick up area extends the full length of the
property on the west side of the building and should be screened from existing and
future residential properties to the west. As information, a vacant parcel zoned for
residential use and generally 375 feet in width adjoins the property to the west. The
nearest residential home is approximately 550 feet to the west. The installation of the 5’
tall block wall along the west and north property lines will improve the project’s
aesthetics and limit visibility of drop off/pick up vehicles along the western side of the
building
The installation of the 3.5’ tall block wall along the east property line will minimize
vehicle headlight pollution into La Cañada Drive.
B. Conceptual Site Plan – Design Principles Analysis
The Conceptual Site Plan (Attachment 3) is in conformance with all applicable Design
Principles. Listed below are the applicable principles (in italics), followed by staff evaluation
of how the design addresses these principles:
Zoning
Provision Required Proposed
Total number of
parking spaces 288 spaces 219 spaces
Screen wall
5’ tall wall along north and east property lines
3.5’ tall wall along west property line None
OV1603039 Leman Charter School Page 4 of 7
Conceptual Design Review Board Staff Report
1. Building orientation: the location, orientation and size of structures shall promote a
complementary relationship of structures to one another.
Staff Commentary: The charter school will be built in the northern portion of the Miller
Ranch development. The proposed site plan design is compatible with the approved
plan because it still shows 1) vehicular connection to the future tech park
development and 2) buildings oriented towards La Cañada Drive.
2. Drainage/grading: site grading shall minimize impacts on natural grade and
landforms and provide for subtle transitions of architectural elements to grade.
Significant cuts and fills in relation to natural grade shall be avoided or minimized
to the extent practical given property constraints.
Staff Commentary: Development of this parcel will increase runoff due to the addition
of non-permeable surfaces associated with new structures, play areas and paving. To
help offset this increase, detention basins have been included in the design.
3. Connectivity: strengthen the usability and connectivity of the pedestrian
environment internally and externally by enhancing access to the public street
system, transit, adjoining development and pedestrian and bicycle transportation
routes. Buildings and uses should provide access to adjacent open space and
recreational areas where appropriate.
Staff Commentary: The Engineering Staff is currently reviewing the project’s traffic
report to address potential onsite and offsite traffic hazards. This review will help ensure
the school has onsite sufficient queuing so that motorists are not idling in La Cañada
Drive during peak hours. Staff will provide an update on the traffic report at the next
CDRB meeting.
C. Conceptual Site Plan – Design Standards Analysis (areas of conflict)
1. Section 2.1.A.4 “Outdoor activities that produce noise, light, dust, smoke or odors
shall not be placed in proximity to residentially-zoned property.”
Staff Commentary: The property is adjacent to a vacant residentially zoned parcel of
land, approximately 375 feet in width. The nearest existing home is approximately 550
feet to the west of the proposed charter school. As the western drive aisle will be utilized
as the drop off/pick area for the school, a five (5) foot masonry wall should be
constructed to minimize visibility of vehicles awaiting drop off/pick up of students.
2. Section 2.1.C.b “Crosswalks shall be constructed of raised and/or textured concrete or
equivalent material as approved by the Town Engineer.”
Staff Commentary: Textured crosswalks are provided from La Canada Drive to the main
administration building, improving pedestrian safety and meeting this standard.
OV1603039 Leman Charter School Page 5 of 7
Conceptual Design Review Board Staff Report
2. Proposed Conceptual Architecture
A. Conceptual Architecture – Design Principles Analysis
1. Design: Building architectural design shall be appropriate for the climate and
characteristics of the Sonoran Desert, including indigenous and traditional
textures, colors, and shapes found in and around Oro Valley. All development
shall maintain and strengthen the high quality of design exemplified in Oro Valley
through project creativity and design excellence.
Staff Commentary: The building utilizes modern Southwestern elements, shapes,
and textures. The design incorporates flat and pitch roofs, architecturally
appropriate windows, stucco finish, copper toned metal roof, and brick veneer
columns at the main building entrance. The project incorporates many design
cues which are consistent with a tech park development, including metal, glass,
window fenestration, and architectural detailing (see Attachment 4).
2. Facade Articulation: All building facades shall be fully articulated, including
variation in building massing, roof planes, wall planes, and surface articulation.
Architectural elements including, but not limited to, overhangs, trellises,
projections, awnings, insets, material, and texture shall be used to create visual
interest that contributes to a building’s character.
Staff Commentary: All sides of the building are fully articulated and create visual
interest through the use of varying roof planes, wall planes and overhangs. The
project incorporates a variety of textures and materials creating additional visual
interest.
B. Conceptual Architecture – Design Standards (areas of conflict)
1. Section 2.2.B.1 “Variations in roofline shall be used to add interest and reduce the
scale of larger buildings.”
Staff Commentary: In general, the proposed school contains flat and varied roof lines
that are consistent with a tech park development. The project incorporates a variety
of colors, roof planes, and height to improve visual interest and reduce the scale of
the overall design.
2. Section 2.2.B.3 “Rooftop mechanical equipment shall be screened or installed in a
manner to fully conceal and to prevent obstruction or distraction of other views.
Screening shall be consistent with building design.”
Staff Commentary: The rooftop mechanical equipment is not screened and will be
visible from the public view. To meet this standard, the rooftop mechanical
equipment should be architecturally integrated into the building architecture with roof
wells and/or other screening methods to minimize visibility of roof mounted
mechanical equipment.
OV1603039 Leman Charter School Page 6 of 7
Conceptual Design Review Board Staff Report
3. Section 2.2.E.1 “Buildings design shall reflect consideration of superior and desirable
design elements of adjacent development when applicable and appropriate.”
Staff Commentary: The applicant has been informed that the proposed
architecture will establish the main architectural theme for the future Miller Ranch
Development. This provision will ensure a consistent and coherent design theme
throughout the entire development.
3. Engineering Comments
A. Traffic:
Leman Academy is expected to be the first constructed project within the Miller
Ranch master planned development. It is anticipated that new traffic generation
associated with the proposed charter school will result in approximately 850
average daily trips (ADT) during its opening year. That number will increase to
approximately 2,050 ADT once the school has reached its full built-out condition.
Although La Cañada Drive has capacity to handle the addition of traffic, the
developer’s consultant is required to prepare a site plan and associated Traffic
Impact Analysis to demonstrate existing conditions, impacts from the development
and associated safety, circulation and mitigation measures. Both documents
were reviewed by the Town’s Engineering staff and some of the findings are
described in further detail below.
The project developer is required to construct both on-site and off-site roadway
improvements to accommodate new traffic associated with the school. The
improvements are required to provide for the safe and efficient circulation of traffic
adjacent to and through the campus. Furthermore, adequate on-site queuing
space is required in an amount that prevents drop-off or pick-up traffic from
backing up into the La Cañada Drive right-of-way.
Off-site improvements will consist of two new direct access points from La
Cañada Drive. The northernmost access will be set up as an exit only, allowing
both north and southbound turn movements. A new median opening at this
location will be constructed to allow exiting traffic needing to head north to make a
left turn. The southernmost access point will be set up for both entering and
exiting traffic. The existing median opening at this location will not change except
that the associated northbound left-turn storage lane will be lengthened to
accommodate peak morning and afternoon traffic. Furthermore, a right-turn lane
will be constructed along La Cañada Drive into this intersection for southbound
traffic turning into the site.
On-site improvements will consist of dual traffic lanes entering the site from the
south, a clockwise circulation pattern around the school for parking, student drop-
off and pick-up, and dual traffic lanes exiting the site from the northernmost exit.
Motorists will queue within the traffic lane around the school until the designated
drop-off/pick-up zone or parking space has been reached. Again, the developer’s
consultant is required to demonstrate that the length of queuing around the school
is adequate to prevent peak hour traffic from backing out onto La Cañada Drive.
OV1603039 Leman Charter School Page 7 of 7
Conceptual Design Review Board Staff Report
It is important to note that traffic queuing is expected to extend around most of the
entire perimeter of the proposed school site, but also that it will be mostly
separated from the future development of Miller Ranch to the south.
B. Drainage:
Existing storm water runoff flows through the site in a southwesterly direction.
The drainage system for the proposed Leman Academy has been designed to
meet the Town’s Drainage Criteria Manual and Floodplain Ordinance
requirements. There is an approved Master Drainage report for the Miller Ranch
project. Any deviations from this report as a result of the Leman Academy
development will be addressed in an addendum to the master report that will meet
the Town’s Drainage Criteria Manual and Floodplain Ordinance requirements.
Stormwater runoff will be conveyed by surface run-off, drainage channels, and
storm drain systems throughout the development. Post-developed discharges will
be required to match pre-developed discharges to mimic existing conditions. This
reduction is accomplished through surface detention basins.
RECOMMENDATION:
Based on a finding that the Conceptual Site Plan and Architecture is in general
conformance with the Oro Valley Design Principles, it is recommended that the
Conceptual Design Review Board take the following action:
Recommend conditional approval to the Town Council of the Conceptual Site Plan
and Architecture, with the suggested modifications in Attachment 1.
SUGGESTED MOTIONS:
I move to recommend approval of the Conceptual Site Plan and Architecture for the
Leman Charter School with a request for the applicant to consider incorporating the
items specified in Attachment 1.
OR
I move to recommend denial of the Conceptual Site Plan and Architecture for the Leman
Charter School finding that it is not in conformance with the Oro Valley Design Principles,
specifically _______________________________.

should be architecturally integrated with the building design and shall include vertical and
horizontal offsets every 200 feet for visual interest.
2. A three and on-half (3.5) foot wall should be constructed on the eastern property line to
shield headlights from La Canada Drive.
3. Forty (40) additional parking spaces should be provided along the west property line.
4. Roof mounted mechanical equipmant should be architecturally integrated into the
building through the use of roof wells and/or other methods to screen any roof mounted

DESIGN REVIEW SUBMITAL FOR:
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The proposed project is Leman Academy of Excellence, a public Pre-K thru
8th grade charter school. The site is an 8.6-acre parcel in the Miller Ranch
Planed Development. Phase I will comprise roughly 66,000 GSF with 36
classrooms on two levels, a main commons building, secure entrance lobby,
offices, meeting rooms, cafeteria, gym and performance platform. Phase I is
being developed for up to 700 students and a later Phase II for a total of up to
1,100 students.
ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN STRATEGY:
The building takes cues from its surrounding landscape to reflect the colors
of the desert. The large standing seam metal roofs are copper toned and
earth tones clad the walls. A selective use of blue is also implemented to
accentuate the pop outs and reflect the schools brand. Intersecting mases
are articulated and gradually broken up as they step up to the rear of the site.
The main entrance is marked by a storefront that overlooks the mountains
and is surrounded with brick cladding and hipped metal roof.

Information
SUBJECT:
PUBLIC HEARING: ORDINANCE NO. (O)17-01, AMENDING SECTIONS 22.2, 22.15,
27.10 AND OTHER RELATED SECTIONS OF THE ORO VALLEY ZONING CODE TO
UPDATE GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT PROCEDURES
RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning and Zoning Commission recommends approval of the Zoning Code
amendments related to General Plan Amendment Procedures.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The purpose of this proposed amendment is to align the Zoning Code Section 22.2
General Plan Amendment Procedures and other sections with the Your Voice, Our
Future General Plan (ratified November 8, 2016). This amendment would also allow all
other references to “major” of “minor” amendments found in the Zoning Code to be
updated with the new terms of “type 1” and “type 2”.
The Zoning Code amendment would ensure future General Plan amendments are
processed in a way consistent with the newly ratified Your Voice, Our Future General
Plan. The majority of items in this Zoning Code amendment are directly transcribed from
the Your Voice, Our Future General Plan. Two additional items bring the Code into
compliance with Arizona State Law and clarify the intent of special areas policies created
during a General Plan amendment process.
The Planning and Zoning Commission held a public hearing on December 6, 2016,
regarding the proposed amendments. The Commission has recommended approval of
the proposed amendments.
BACKGROUND OR DETAILED INFORMATION:
On November 8, 2016, the Oro Valley community voted to ratify the Your Voice, Our
On November 8, 2016, the Oro Valley community voted to ratify the Your Voice, Our
Future General Plan. Over the three year General Plan update process, the Town
Council has received numerous reports, briefings and updates. This has included
information related to the General Plan Amendment section of the Your Voice, Our
Future General Plan.
The purpose of the requested Zoning Code amendment is to align the Zoning Code with
the Your Voice, Our Future General Plan amendment process. Most changes to the
Zoning Code replace General Plan Amendment type definitions, procedures and criteria
that were based on the Focus 2020 General Plan (adopted in 2005) with that of the Your
Voice, Our Future General Plan (adopted in 2016).
The proposed amendments are discussed in detail below.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
The following includes the major changes made in this Zoning Code amendment. See
the attached Ordinance to view all proposed changes to the Zoning Code.
Types of Amendments to the General Plan
The following describes the new definitions of Type 1 and Type 2 Amendments and the
criteria used by the Planning and Zoning Administrator to reclassify a Type 2
Amendment.
Type 1 Amendment: Type 1 Amendments were previously known as Major General
Plan Amendments and cover substantial alterations to the land use mixture and
balance in Oro Valley.
40 acres or more and classified as Type 1 in the General Plan Amendment
Matrix.
Increasing High Density Residential and Master Planned Community,
regardless of acreage.
Decreasing Neighborhood Commercial Office, Community/Regional
Commercial, Commerce Office Park and Open Space, regardless of acreage.
Planning Area Boundary changes.
Type 2 Amendment: Type 2 Amendments were previously known as Minor General
Plan Amendments and cover less substantial alterations to the land use mixture
and balance in Oro Valley.
Amendments not meeting the criteria for a Type 1 Amendment.
Urban Services Boundary changes.
Open Space trades resulting in no net loss of open space.
Planning and Zoning Administrator Amendment Reclassification
The Planning and Zoning Administrator may reclassify a Type 2 Amendment to
a Type 1 Amendment based on findings of visibility, significant environmental
or grading impacts and land use density transition.
Update General Plan Amendment Matrix.
General Plan Amendment Procedures
The General Plan Amendment Procedures section describes the application and review
process of Type 1 and Type 2 Amendments. Although not directly called for in the Your
Voice, Our Future General Plan, the proposed changes in this section offer clarity and
conformity with Arizona State Law.
Add public, public official and agency review requirements, as per Arizona State
Law.
Clarify public notification process for Type 1 and Type 2 Amendments.
Remove section on Major General Plan Amendments for Immediate Review, as it
does not conform to Arizona State Law.
Adoption of Amendments
The following new criteria, as ratified in the Your Voice, Our Future General Plan, are
intended to be used by Town staff, the Planning and Zoning Commission and the Town
Council to review and make decisions regarding General Plan Amendments. The broad
language of the criteria also enables analysis based on the framework of the entire
General Plan.
Specific criteria also allow review related to:
Development character and land use patterns
Infrastructure and improvements
Public services
Natural beauty and environmental resources
Amendment requests must include effective public outreach efforts.
Non-residential changes will also contribute to long-term economic stability, as
demonstrated by consistency with goals and policies related to economic
development.
The Your Voice, Our Future General Plan recognizes the potential need for special area
policies which are created during the amendment process. These policies are then
typically refined during a rezoning. One of the proposed amendments in this section
clarifies this relationship. Special area policies are intended to be refined when more
detailed designs, traffic analyses and drainage assessments are completed. Adjustments
may be required to address public safety concerns.
Other Updates
The following are minor changes will be made throughout the Zoning Code to align with
the Your Voice, Our Future General Plan.
“major” amendments are now called “Type 1” amendments.
“minor” amendments are now called “Type 2” amendments.

REGULAR SESSION AGENDA
1. REVIEW AND/OR APPROVAL OF THE NOVEMBER 1, 2016 REGULAR
SESSION MEETING MINUTES
MOTION: A motion was made by Charlie Hurt and seconded by Tom Gribb to approve
the November 1, 2016 meeting minutes as written.
MOTION carried, 6-0.
2. DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE ACTION ON A ZONING CODE AMENDMENT TO
SECTIONS OF CHAPTER 22 AND 27 RELATED TO GENERAL PLAN
AMENDMENT PROCEDURES
Elisa Hamblin, Long Range Principal Planner, presented the following:
- Align current Zoning Code with the Your Voice, Our Future plan
- Amend the current Zoning Code sections on General Plan Amendments
- Amendment types and procedures
- Adoption of General Amendments/Special Area Policies
MOTION: A motion was made by Tom Drzazgowski and seconded by Charlie Hurt
to recommend approval of the Zoning Code Amendment to Sections 22.2 and 22.15
and all other references to outdated terminology to align with the Your Voice, Our
Future General Plan with the modification to Section 22.2.d.4.b as shown on the slide.
MOTION carried, 6-0.
3. PUBLIC HEARING: DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE ACTION ON A ZONING
CODE AMENDMENT TO CHAPTER 28 RELATED TO WALL SIGNS. THE
AMENDMENT MAY INCLUDE CHANGES TO OTHER RELATED SECTIONS OF
THE ZONING CODE, OV1602882
Anthony Cisneros, Planning Intern, presented on the following:
- Amendment to add taglines on signs to allow identification of type of business
- Wall signs and establishing standards
- Taglines permitted use and limited size
- Proportionality of taglines
Concerns raised by the commission:
- How tagline advertising will be enforced. Patty Hayes, Senior Planning Technician,
stated the size of the tagline will reduce using the areas as advertising.
-Preventing businesses from advertising prices or services in the tagline. Chad Daines,
Principal Planner, stated the definition of the tagline doesn't permit advertisement of
December 6, 2016 Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting 3
prices and services. The guidance from the General Plan describes the general purpose
of signs.
- Joe Andrews, Chief Civil Deputy Attorney, spoke on the Gilbert vs. Reed case. The
city was sued and lost because it told businesses specifically what they could or could
not place on their signs. We can limit somewhat based on guidance. A trademarked
logo is allowed as part of its allowable signage allotment.
-The area provides a way to identify their business without additional signage; it allows
for a portion of their signed to be used differently.
Chair Leedy opened the public hearing.
Mr. Dave Perry, President/CEO of the Greater Oro Valley Chamber of Commerce,
spoke in support of Agenda Item 3.
- The 35% limitation is going to drive the verbiage on the signs.
- He agrees with Mr. Andrews regarding a potential First Amendment breach if we limit
too specifically what is allowed.
Chair Leedy closed the public hearing.
MOTION: A motion was made by Greg Hitt and seconded by Charlie Hurt to
recommend the approval of Zoning Code Amendment in Attachment 2 related to
Tagline signs, based on the finding that the request meets the intent of the general plan
for signage.
MOTION carried, 6-0.
Meeting adjourned at 6:36 p.m.
