Past chair Our Chamber stands in support of a new master sign program Toni Dorsey for the Placita de Oro Shopping Center, Item 2 on your regular AAA Arizona agenda Wednesday, Jan. 9. Directors Placita de Oro has an array of businesses — off the top of my Alan Dankwerth head a bank a pharmacy, a women's clothing boutique a Market Considerations > > > > Goodwill drop-off, a nail salon, a Mexican restaurant, a Subway, a Veronica Apodaca Northwest Healthcare / Pilates studio, a salon, a 24-hour gym, a hardware store, an Oro Valley Hospital Edward Jones location, a dry cleaner, a home entertainment Jeff o Aiutomotive business — but you'd hardly know of them without driving in. Placita de Oro is much set back from Tangerine Road. Lovely Mark Mitchell Mark Mitchell CPA trees block some of the external view. It has confusing egress Kay Williams and ingress along Tangerine (some form of signage at the Southern Arizona western-most entrymight be warranted). And the existing g ) g Veterans and First Responders Living monument sign package is too small and too dull, particularly for Memorial higher speed southbound traffic on Rancho Vistoso / First Cindy Webb Hanson OneAZ Credit Union Avenue. Eric Renaud Larger monument signs, using the proposed color palette, Pima Federal Credit Union coupled with a migration away from copper patina wall signs (as Jack Talmage is allowed in the master sign program) will help existing tenants Oro Valley Country Club sell a few more tools, or Pilates classes, or burritos, or manicures. Jeremy Thompson It will also help the center's ownership fill the several vacancies Cox within Placita de Oro, and perhaps attract interest in the major Bruce Baca Coldwell Banker undeveloped pad between Walgreen's and Wells Fargo. Residential Brokerage Placita de Oro is certain to benefit by the new residential Michelle Armstrong development in Rancho Vistoso, as well as across First Avenue.

Tim Bohen < Tuesday, January 08, 2019 1:12 PM Oden, Hannah RE: Current version of the Rancho Vistoso PAD last updated in 2008? Support for maintaining Rancho Vistoso 2C as CPI Follow up Flagged I would like for my email to be forwarded to all members of our Town Council via our Town Clerk. Please add the following comments as my summary of the case.. Best Regards, Tim Bohen Summary - Evaluation of Table C in Rancho Vistoso PAD Residential is not an allowed use on CPI land per the Rancho Vistoso PAD pages 94-95. Thus, there has never really been such a thing as "we found out our homes were on CPI land" as the unlucky neighboring residents have claimed or even "they promised me CPI against CPI" in Neighborhood 2 after the residential was built as Mr Ford claimed 11/8/18. All Rancho Vistoso Neighborhood 2 parcels but A, B and E have a mismatch between currently documented PAD land CPI designation in Table C on page 27 and the residential that has been built. Only per q on page 95, by a granting of the Town Council, can residential be a permitted use. (R)08-48 appears to do this but only via the Town Zoning to MDR and not in the Rancho Vistoso PAD itself. For Rancho Vistoso Neighborhood 2 parcels C, D, F G, H and I, the PAD land use listed as of today is incorrect and has been incorrect for at least 10 years and likely longer. Table C should be corrected by WLB as soon as possible to establish the correct PAD land use (Medium Density (3-6) Residential) for these parcels. The best way to do this is via a PAD amendment for this express purpose. The change of land use which occurred for these parcels around 2000 is a "substantial change" per 4b4) on PAD sheet 40. Substantial changes require PAD amendments. On page 41, 6b the PAD directs each applicant to record the approved changes in the PAD and provide copies for the Town. We cannot see any evidence that this direction is being followed since (0)08-02 was incorporated 2/6/08 as amendment 25 to the current PAD version. The PAD administrator seems not to be following their own updating guidelines. Why are further PAD Rancho Vistoso PAD amendments being considered at this time when the PAD document itself is so clearly outdated yet should not be? Updating the Rancho Vistoso PAD amendment by amendment as prescribed within might have helped to mitigate the problems which have hampered parcel 2E since the time Mr. Ford began his due diligence in 2006. -----Original Message ----- From: "Oden, Hannah" Sent: Jan 8, 2019 8:15 AM To: Cc: "Vella, Bayer" Subject: RE: Current version of the Rancho Vistoso PAD last updated in 2008? Support for maintaining Rancho Vistoso 2C as CPI Good morning Tim, Thank you for your email. I am writing in regards to the Vistoso Commerce Loop rezoning that is on the Town Council agenda for tomorrow night. I can pass the email on to the Town Clerk so that it can be forwarded to the Mayor and Council for consideration. Or, if you would like to write comments just focused on that case, please email them to me and I can have them forwarded in advance of the meeting. Thank you again, and just let me know your preference. Best, Hannah Hannah Oden Planner Town of Oro Valley 11000 N.

Support for maintaining Rancho Vistoso 2C as CPI Bayer, Is the version of the Rancho Vistoso PAD which is found on the Town website the most recently updated? https://www.orovalleyaz.gov/town/departments/community-development-and-public- works/planning-division/planned-area-development I ask this because the last Ordinance referenced is (0)08-02. The more recent Ordinances below apply directly to this PAD. There are likely others which might also apply given further review (0)09-09 - 48 ft buildings and 8 ft fence at Ventana (0)09-19 (0)14-01 - neighborhood 10T goes from C1 to MDR (PAD map may be outdated as well) (0)16-12 (0)17-09 In addition, the page 27 Table C Neighborhood 2 Land Use Summary still lists D,E,F,G,H and I acreage as CPI, even though these now contain houses and the Town changed the zoning to MDR in June 2008 per (R)08-48. There is also no record I can see of any of the post 2008 Neighborhood 3 commercial development which one might expect, particularly in the case of Ventana. And the above is really just a brief summary of the Rancho Vistoso PAD sections which might merit update. It appears that Oro Valley may need to rely upon an updated and current Rancho Vistoso PAD as a record of owner entitlements. Perhaps WLB has a more recent version the Town can post? This PAD quite literally covers a lot of ground! As an Oro Valley resident, I support maintaining this property as CPI as this best preserves the balance between employment and residential uses requested by the voters in our current General Plan. Best Regards, Tim Bohen Bayer Vella, AICP Planning Manager Town of Oro Valley 11000 N. La Canada Dr. Oro Valley, AZ 85737 Dear Mr. Vella, I support the proposed residential rezoning of Rancho Vistoso Parcel 2-E, and we urge the Town staff and Council to support and approve the rezoning as well. It would be easy stand against the residential rezoning from the standpoint of preserving potential employment land, but unlike other potential employment parcels in Oro Valley, Parcel 2-E is uniquely constrained, being the only such parcel immediately adjacent to existing homes. Leaving the property zoned Campus Park Industrial will impact us by allowing an incompatible development on the property. Furthermore, leaving the current zoning in place will also impact us even until such a time as development occurs because our home values are depressed by the unknown potential of adjacent incompatible Campus Park Industrial development. Please place higher value in protecting your residents than in continuing to hope for employment uses that are incompatible with our existing neighborhoods that have been established for almost two decades. The proposed single -story residential rezoning is the best option for Parcel 2-E. Thank you, Na' r� Ae�fro Uct LCAT fi"Z Bayer Vella, AICP Planning Manager Town of Oro Valley 11000 N.
