SUBJECT: PARKS AND RECREATION ADVISORY BOARD RECOMMENDATION FOR
NAMING AND BRANDING POLICY
4
BACKGROUND:
On December 7, 2005, the Town Council directed the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board (PRAB) to
develop a draft policy regarding donations to the Town and the authorization of naming rights. At their
January 10, 2006 meeting, PRAB designated a sub-committee to work on this assignment.
The sub-committee met regularly over the next three months, delivering a final draft to the Legal Department
in April of 2006. On May 2, 2006, PRAB unanimously approved a final draft to be presented to Town
Council for review and consideration.
SUMMARY:
The draft Naming and Branding Policy includes three sections as follows:
1) Official naming and renaming of Oro Valley Parks;
2) Receipt of general gifts and donations; and
3) Sponsorship agreements and corporate naming.
Each section of the proposed policy includes background, definitions, criteria, process and/or
guidelines.

Naming and B
PURPOSE
To outline the policy, criteria, and process for
(1) official naming and renaming of Oro Valley Parks;
(2) receipt of general gifts and donations; and
(3) sponsorship agreements for the naming of park facilities and features.
OFFICIAL NAMING AND RENAMING OF ORO VALLEY PARKS
BACKGROUND
Parks are integral to Oro Valley's identity. As an agency devoted to public service
through Parks and Recreation, it is a goal of Oro Valley Parks and Recreation to be seen
as part of the fabric of the community. Stewardship of the public parks and recreation
system for the greatest benefit of the community-at-large over the long term is a primary
value. Names with geographic references, names based upon distinguishing
characteristics and/or commonly used names have become the standard for this
community.
At the same time, it is recognized that individuals and community organizations may
periodically wish to honor individuals or groups by naming parks after them. The
challenge is to accommodate this wish, where warranted, while still supporting the
primary community values.
DEFINITION
Parks or park sites are Town owned parks, preserves and open space. Park sites include
developed and undeveloped park areas and designated open space areas.
CRITERIA
Park sites within the Oro Valley Parks and Recreation system will be named through an
administrative process in accordance with the following established criteria which
emphasize community identity and service through the Parks and Recreation system.
C:\Documents and Settings\bsincIair\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\OLK ICI\Parks Rec Naminglmd Branding Policy 042706.doe
•
• First priority in naming parks shall be given to geographical location, natural or
geological features.
• Names with common usage have a secondary priority.
• Names that are similar to existing parks or properties in the greater Oro Valley
area should be avoided in order to minimize confusion.
• Monetary contributions will not guarantee the naming of a park according to the
donor's wishes. However, Oro Valley Parks and Recreation is willing to consider
any proposal submitted by the public.
• If the Town elects to accept land by property donation or deed, any condition
placed on the naming of the park shall be honored.
• Parks named after an individual should include the geographic, natural, or
geological features as part of the name.
PROCESS: INITIAL NAMING OF PARKS AND FACILITIES
A) Oro Valley Parks and Recreation may generate and/or receive written proposals for
the naming of park sites.
B) Written proposals shall include the following:
1) A statement as to how the name is consistent with the criteria stated in this Policy.
2) Justification for the suggested park name.
C) In the event a park site is jointly or wholly acquired by other public agencies,but
managed by Oro Valley Parks and Recreation, the other involved agencies shall be
consulted and given the opportunity to submit a written recommendation as to the
proposed name .
D) All proposals shall be forwarded to the Oro Valley Parks and Recreation Advisory
Board for review and recommendation. If the park site has significance to any other
boards and/or committees, the proposal will also be forwarded to those boards and/or
committees for their review and recommendation.
E) All proposals and associated recommendations shall be forwarded to the Town
Council for review and possible action.
F) A majority vote of the Town Council will be required for naming a park.
PROCESS: RENAMING OF PARKS
Renaming of parks carries with it a greater burden of process compared to the initial
naming of a park. Tradition and continuity of name and community identification are
values that supersede fads and fashion. Each application must meet the criteria stated in
this Policy, but meeting all criteria does not assure renaming a park.
Procedure:
A) Oro Valley Parks and Recreation may generate and/or receive written proposals for
renaming a park site.

C:\Documents and Settings\bsinclair\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\OLKICI\Parks Rec Nam418nd Branding Policy 042706.doc
and competitive process. Sponsorships that are anticipated to generate less than $20,000
in annual revenue, in-kind goods or services will be solicited on an informal basis
through publication of sponsorship criteria and allowing a period of time for potential
sponsors to respond.
Procedure:
A) Potential sponsorship opportunities may be initiated by the Mayor and Council, Town
Staff or members of the public. Town Staff will prepare a written description of all
sponsorship opportunities, defining the scope of a sponsorship program or project,
including a description of the community benefit, financial goals, means of
recognition and potential interested sponsors, and submit the description to the Parks
and Recreation Advisory Board. Parks and Recreation Advisory Board approval is
required prior to submitting a potential sponsorship opportunity to the Town Council.
If a potential Sponsorship Agreement will result in a name change to an existing
facility, the history and"legacy" of the current facility name should be taken into
consideration and/or incorporated within the proposed new name.
B) If the potential Sponsorship Agreement includes naming rights to a facility, property,
amenity, event or program, Town Staff will obtain preliminary approval for the
project from Parks and Recreation Advisory Board and solicit the assistance of a
qualified third-party firm that will determine the value of the naming rights.
• Valuations must be provided as part of the cost/benefit analysis.
• The valuation will establish the present market value of the facility's naming
rights.
• Valuations must be supported by sufficient financial analysis and credible
study documentation.
Valuations shall consider the following:
1) tangible ible assets that are the quantitative benefits arising from a sponsorship
g
package, such as media advertising, printed ticket logos or other publications; and
2) All intangible assets, which are the qualitative benefits which may arise from
such a sponsorship, such as audience loyalty, recognizability and prestige of the
organization's marks, logos and standing in the community; and
3) Geographic reach/market impact factors, such as the number, size and value of the
market(s) in which the sponsor will promote its affiliation with the facility, event,
or the desirability of Town property to a particular sponsor category.
C) If ap otential Sponsorship Agreement will result over$20,000 in annual revenue, in-
kind goods or services to the Town, either through direct revenue or through the value
of the naming rights, Parks and Recreation Staff shall follow the Town's Request for
Proposal (RFP) process to solicit sponsorship proposals. The Sponsorship Agreement
shall be awarded to the potential sponsor whose proposal best conforms in all
material respects to the requirements and criteria set forth in the RFP.
C:\Documents and Settings\bsinclair\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\OLK ICI\Parks Rec Namin9nd Branding Policy 042706.doc
D) If the proposed Sponsorship Agreement is anticipated to result in less than$20,000 in
annual revenue, goods and/or services to the Town, and does not involve naming
rights, Town Staff may contract directly with a Prospective Sponsor, without issuing
an RFP.
1) Town Staff will solicit potential sponsors by publicly announcing selection
criteria and providing a time period in which potential sponsors may respond.
2) The Town may elect to issue an RFP for Sponsorship Agreements which may
result in annual revenue less than $20,000, if it is deemed appropriate considering
the circumstances, or is otherwise deemed to be in the best interest of the Town.
E) The Parks and Recreation Advisory Board will review and approve all Sponsorship
Agreements,regardless of amount.

IbFINAL DRAFT
TOWN OF ORO VALLEY
COUNCIL COMMUNICATION MEETING DATE: June 12, 2006
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR & COUNCIL
FROM: Sarah S. More, FAICP Planning and Zoning Administrator
SUBJECT: STUDY SESSION - Proposed Multi-jurisdictional Planning Process for State Trust
Lands North of the Oro Valley Town Limits, into Pinal County.
ISSUE:
The Arizona State Land Department has asked the Town of Oro Valley to participate in a conceptual land
planning process for state trust land to the north of the Town limits and into Pinal County. The planning process
would include representation from the Town, Pima County, Pinal County, the State Land Department and a
private sector planningconsultant working on behalf of the State Land Department. The purpose of this study
session is to update the Town Council on preliminary discussions to date and to provide an opportunity for
direction to staff on the extent of Town participation.
SUMMARY:
Representatives of the Town, including Council Members Dankwerth and Gillaspie, the Town Manager and
Assistant Town Manager, Community Development, Town Engineer, and Planning and Zoning, have met
twice to have preliminary discussions with the planning group. The planning group is made up of
representatives from the above noted jurisdictions.
The group has discussed tentative boundaries of the study area extending up to include the Oracle Junction
area, but has not finalized it. We have discussed the need to form a partnership to carry out this process,
select a consultant, agree on a scope of work, and start working on the planning process soon.
ORO VALLEY RESOURCES:
The planning process will occur over the next 18 —24 months and will require staff support and other Town
resources. Updated mapping and resource inventories are necessary as a part of the initial data gathering.
While the Planning and Zoning Administrator will be the designated Town representative on the planning team,
additional staff resources from several departments will be needed as a part of the process.
In addition, the Arizona State Land Department (ASLD) has asked for financial assistance from all of the
participating jurisdictions. This funding will primarily support the hiring of the planning consultant working for
ASLD. By helping fund the consultant, the Town is assured participation in the consultant selection and
oversight of the project. The Assistant Town Manager has reviewed similar ASLD planning projects and has
found that a commitment level of$30,000 would be an appropriate level of funding by the Town. ASLD wants
to have a consultant selected in July. The Southern Arizona office of ASLD indicates that this project is one of
their top priorities.
ANNEXATION POLICY:
One of the issues preliminarily discussed by the group is to what extent the Town's participation in the planning
process is a commitment to annex all or part of the planning study area. The Oro Valley General Plan does
include that area north of the Town limits up to the Pinal County line. The General Plan designations do not
include specific development concepts, rather land use designations for open space, resource areas,residential,
master planned community and campus park industrial land uses. The current Oro Valley annexation policy

participation suggests that thep
Town'sartici ation in the planning process be considered separately from a
commitment to annex the
studyarea. Once the ASLD plan is developed, it will be more evident whether or not
it is advantageous to the Town to annex. Until such time as the Town decides to amend the General Plan
boundaries and annex
the area, the Town's best interests are to participate in planning an area that is important
to our future as it relates to open spacepreservation, transportation systems, and land use impacts in general.
agree at somepoint in the process that annexation is appropriate, a preannexation
Should the Town Council
agreement should be made with ASLD and an amendment to the General Plan initiated.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Mountains is an important Open space preservation in the Tortolita goal for all participants. Pima County ahs
some open space bond funding
available for this and anticipates another open space bond election in 2008 to
proposed
land. The osed state land reform initiative identifies preservation of land in
provide for purchase of more
the Tortolitas as an outcome if it approved by the voters.
CONCLUSION:
As this is a study session item, the Town Council should consider taking action at the June 21, 2006, Town
commitment toprovide planningteam staffing, information and resources, and
Council meeting to make a
funding.
