TOWN OF ORO VALLEY
COUNCIL STUDY SESSION MEETING DATE: January 13, 2005
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR& COUNCIL
FROM: Brent Sinclair, AICP, Community Development Director
SUBJECT: PRESENTATION OF GENERAL PLAN UPDATE REVISIONS
BACKGROUND:
The General Plan Revision Committee has completed the work assigned by the Town Council on September 20,
2004. Specifically S ecificall the Committee has systematically reviewed, analyzed and discussed all the enumerated
issues. Other issues that were raised by Committee members or the general public in the course of the Open
House
have also been discussed and reviewed. All discussions and resultant revisions were accomplished in the
context of seven different working sessions conducted in October, November and December of 2004.
SUMMARY:
attached materials consist of the General Plan Update REVISED and the Strategic Implementation Program
The
REVISED.
Both documents contain all the revisions as recommended by the Revision Committee and are
formatted in the same manner. Additional language is presented as double underline and deleted language is
presented as stfikethrough.
copyof the revision summaryis attached and summarizes each issue and revision, if any. The
In addition, a
good is a resource as a hard copy, but even better online. When viewed online the reader is able to
review each issue and click on the link for that issue and view it as it appears in revised form in the General Plan
document or Strategic Implementation Program.
In addition to text revisions in the General Plan and the Strategic Implementation Program, the Committee
addressed land use
issues as theyrelate to the Land Use Plan Map. The Committee decided to recommend all
chanes remain intact as they appear in the 2003 Update Plan IF they were discussed,
land use designationg original and
acted on bythe ori inal General Plan Steering Committee, Planning and Zoning Commission and
Town Council. designation use desi ation changes that did not go through that process would remain as designated
on the 1996 Generalp Plan Land use Map. There were a total of eight(8) such properties and are enumerated on
the Land Use Map. Since it is difficult to view these on the Land Use Plan Map, staff will provide an addendum
to this report byFridaywith attachments that show the properties in question on a larger scale.
NEXT STEPS:
Although the Town Council does not officially act on the Plan as this stage, Council input and direction is
necessary before the plan is forwarded to the Planning and Zoning Commission. If the Council does have
concerns with the recommended revisions or has new issues, the Revision Committee would need to address
thosep rior to forwarding the plan to the Planning and Zoning Commission.
TOWN OF ORO VALLEY
COUNCIL COMMUNICATION Page 2 of 2
State of Arizona Statues mandate Planning and Zoning Commission review and recommendation prior to Town
Council Adoption of the Plan. Once adopted by the Council, an election date is set for voter approval. The
General Plan document with the Land Use Plan Map is what voters will be asked to approve. The Strategic
Implementation Program is not subject to voter approval.
In addition, the Revision Committee does recommend a second Open House once the Committee has completed
its revision work and before the Planning and Zoning Commission has acted on it.

TOWN OF ORO VALLEY--
PUBLIC INFORMATION AND EDUCATION, GENERAL PLAN
ELECTION--2005
Situation
The Town of Oro Valley will be seeking approval for a revised General Plan, the
adoption of which is mandated by the State of Arizona. An earlier version of the
Plan was submitted to voters in the November 2003 election and was defeated
59% to 41%. Post election research conducted by an independent research firm
indicated that one of the major reasons was a perceived lack of understanding of
the Plan.
A review of the voter survey conducted in February of 2004 revealed that 20% of
the voters voted "no" because they did not feel they understood the Plan, or that
it was too vague and lacked details. After further collapsing the "other
comments," nearly 8% did not trust local government to implement the plan and
another 10% were not convinced that the Plan was "any good." It is safe to say
that ill-informed voters will vote "no" regardless of the merit of the ballot item.
The 2003 election was conducted entirely through mail-in ballot, representing a
turnout of about 9,000 voters which equals 43% of 20,579 registered voters at
that time.
After the rejection of the first Plan a broad-based citizen's committee was formed
to make revisions. Key opponents wereinvited to participate
Builders s as
were other diverse interests such as theSouthern Arizona
Association (BARBA).
A public vote on the revisions is anticipated for November 1, 2005. A
determination has not yet been made whether the election will be polling place or
mail-in.
Under Arizona Revised Statutes Sec. 9-500.14, a municipality may expend
resources for education and information regarding a ballot proposition. A
municipality may not expend resources for advocacy.
Communications Objective
Enable the citizens of Oro Valley to make an informed decision when they cast
their vote on the Oro Valley General Plan.

Town Halls
There will be a number of Town Hall and other public meetings, for both
input and for public education:
1) The Committee will continue to hold Town Hall-style open houses to
explain the Committee's work to date and to solicit additional opinions
from the general community.
In addition, there willpublichearings be hearin s before both the Planning and
Zoning Commission and the Town Council, thus allowing additional input.
2) At least two additional town hall meetings will be initiated under this
plan; they will be scheduled on different days of the week and preferably
held at different locations to facilitate attendance. Each town hall should
y
include as many
of the Mayor and Council and committee members as
possible.
The best format for such events is an open house that features a number
of displays accompanied
byrepresentatives of the Town or the committee.
This casual style encouragesquestions and enhances dialogue with the
attendees.

Oro Valley General Plan Policy Document
Adopted May 29,2003 (revised)
PREAMBLE
By affirmative majority vote, we the citizens of the Town of Oro Valley, Arizona
establish and ordain this Plan for the development and support of the Town.
The purpose of the Plan is to provide basic direction and guidance to all elected and
appointed officials, employees, and residents of the Town in their decision making
process.
We intend that the Plan be followed and consistently applied unless and until
conditions in the community have changed to the extent that the plan requires
amendment or modification. When conditions warrant that the Plan be modified,
such amendments are subject to the process and approval set forth in the plan
according to Arizona law and the Town of Oro Valley amendment process.
Administration of the Plan is a responsibility shared by the Town Staff, Planning and
Zoning Department, Planning and Zoning Commission, Town Council and Town
Citizens.
ORO VALLEY'S VISION FOR _ FUTURE
To be a well-planned community that uses its resources to balance the needs of today
against the potential impacts to future generations. Oro Valley's lifestyle is defined by
the highest standard of environmental integrity, education, infrastructure, services,
and public safety. It is a community of people working together to create the Town's
future with a government that is responsive to residents and ensures the long-term
financial stability of the Town.
COMMUNITY VALUES
As a community we value:
a Our fragile and unique Sonoran Desert setting.
a Quality education as an integral part of our community.
• Economic stability that maintains our quality of life.
• The richness that art, recreation, and culture bring to our lives.
• Efficient government that protects the Town's long-term interests while being
responsive to present community needs.

INTRODUCTION
REGIONAL CONTEXT
The Town of Oro Valley is located approximately six miles north of Tucson, Arizona, as shown in
Figure 1. This places it approximately 110 miles southeast of Phoenix, the Arizona capital, and 75
miles north of the United States-Mexico border.
Oro Valley is situated in the northeastern corner of Pima County and is near the southeastern corner
of Pinal County. The Town lies between the Santa Catalina Mountains to the east and the Tortolita
Mountains to the northwest. The Coronado National Forest makes up much of the Town's eastern
boundary. In addition to Tucson, the second largest city in Arizona, other nearby communities
include the Town of Marana to the west and the unincorporated community of Catalina to the north.
Major regional infrastructure near Oro Valley includes Interstate 10 (1-10), located approximately 12
miles west of Oro Valley, which runs between Tucson and Phoenix, as well as linking major cities
further east and west. The Union Pacific Railroad parallels 1-10 and provides similar links.
There are two major roadways serving Oro Valley. Oracle Road, also known as State Route 77, runs
north-south through Oro Valley and is the old road/highway linking Tucson and Phoenix. Tangerine
Road runs west from Oracle Road, linking Oro Valley with 1-10.
..AN N NG AREA
The Planning Area for the General Plan Update includes the area within the Town limits as well as
land outside the Town's current limits that may be annexed to the Town as it develops (see Figure 2).
The Planning Area also includes land adjacent to the Town that may be affected by or may affect
land uses in the Town, such as National Forest land, that the Town has no plans to annex. The
Town's incorporated area (i.e., the area within its limits) was approximately 33 square miles as of
preparation of this document. The Planning Area covers approximately 77 square miles and has the
following boundaries:
• North: The border between Pima County and Pinal County
• South: Mainly along Ina Road as well as along North Christie Road
• West: Mainly along North Shannon Road
• East: Generally includes all of Catalina State Park and a portion of west Coronado National
Forest
In addition to considering the Planning Area, the General Plan addresses parts or all of communities
adjoining or surrounding the Town that may affect the Town's development. Where information is
relevant and available, it will be provided for comparison with the Town. Such communities include
neighboring municipalities, such as Tucson and Marana. In addition, for reference purposes and to
aid in the identification of larger trends in terms of demographics and economics, information has
also been provided for larger geographic areas, such as Pima County, the State of Arizona, and the
United States.
1 Introduction
Policy Document Oro Valley General Plan
Adopted May 29,2003 (revised)
PROJECT BACKGROUND/PROCESS
WHAT IS A GENERAL PLAN?
A general plan is essentially a community's "blue print" for land use and development; it serves as
the � p
basis for rational decisions regarding a community's long-term development. Thegeneral plan
expresses community'sP
p sses the development goals and embodies public policy relative to the distribution
of future land uses, both public and private. The policies and programs of the
general plan are
intended to underlie most land use decisions. Preparing, adopting,
implementing, and maintaininga
general plan serves to:
• Identify the community's land use, transportation, environmental, economic, and socialg oals
and policies as they relate to land use and development.
■ Provide a basis for local government decision-making, including decisions on development
approvals.
■ Provide residents with opportunities to participate in the planning and decision making
processes of their community.
■ Inform residents, developers, decision makers, and other cities and counties of theg round
rules that guide development within the community.
A general plan typically has three defining qualities:
General Nature: As its name suggests, the general plan provides guidance for the future, articular)
p Y
regarding growth and development. More precise direction is provided in implementation
documents and plans, such as annexations, the zoning code, design regulations, the annual budget,
and the capital improvements program.
Comprehensive Scope: The general plan addresses a broad range of environmental, social, and
economic factors affecting change within the community. These factors include land use and
circulation, the environment and resources, economic and fiscal conditions, as well as a host of
others. Furthermore, these factors are addressed in an interrelated and, whereverp ossible, consistent
manner.
Long-Range: The general plan takes immediate concerns into consideration, but focusesrimaril
p Y on
the future, particularly potential build out scenarios (i.e., the maximum size andPoP ulation of the
community).
As described below, according to the State of Arizona's Growing Smarter/Plus statutes, everycityand
county in Arizona is required to adopt and maintain a general plan.
WHY UPDATE THE EXISTING PLAN?
In deciding to update the Town's 1996 General Plan, the Town had two g
comp ellin motivations. The
first was the growth and change that the community had experienced. Oro
Valley's population had
nearly quadrupled from 6,670 in 1990 to 29,700 in 2000, fundamentally g
chap in the Town's
changing
landscape. The update provided the community with an opportunity to re-examine the basicoli
P cY
commitments made in 1996 to determine if they still address the needs of the community, as well as
to improve some of the technical aspects of the general plan.
The second reason that the Town chose to update the 1996 Plan was to address its obligation to
comply with the requirements of the State's Growing Smarter/Plus statutes. These requirements are
discussed in detail under "Growing Smarter/Plus Framework" below.

GENERAL PLAN UPDATE PROCESS
To accomplish a successful update, the Town Council selected a project team consisting of Town
staff, the General Plan Steering Committee, and a team of planning consultants. The 21-member
Steering Committee, consisting of Town residents appointed by the Town Council, guided the
update process, with Town staff and the consultants providing technical expertise and assistance.
The process of the General Plan Update had numerous individual components, which can be
grouped into the following four major steps:
Step 1: Information Gathering and Issue Identification
Step 2: Alternatives Development and Selection
Step 3: General Plan Element Preparation
Step 4: Council Adoption and Voter Ratification
Background Report and Future Search Conference
The first step of the General Plan Update process, Information Gathering and Issue Identification,
involved the preparation of a Background Report. The report built upon the information contained
in the 1996 General Plan, updating it and providing additional information where appropriate. The
intent of the report is to provide the residents of Oro Valley, as well as Town leaders and staff, with
as much information as possible on the Town's current conditions, outstanding issues, and probable
future trends.
During the development of the Background Report, the project team organized a Future Search
Conference in which approximately 150 citizens helped to define the community's vision.
Information from this and other elements of the public participation program are presented in the
Supplemental Reports and Documents section of this report.
Land Use Alternatives and the Fiscal Model
Following completion of the first phase, the project team defined alternatives for the future
development of Oro Valley and created a fiscal model to evaluate the long-term revenues and
expenditures related to each land use scenario. A preferred alternative for the future development of
the Town was chosen based on the results of this model and an extensive community outreach
process that included Focus Group meetings, an Open House, and numerous meetings of the
Steering Committee.
Document Preparation and Adoption
The community outreach was also used to create the General Plan Elements. The results of Future
Search conference and the 1996 General Plan were used to create issues, goals and policies, which
were presented to the public and modified during the Focus Group Meetings.
Following preparation of the Draft General Plan, the Plan was submitted for 60-day review by the
public, the State, and affected jurisdictions. Over 900 comments were received and considered by
the Steering Committee. In November, the Steering Committee's draft was revised and
recommended for approval by the Town's Planning and Zoning Commission. The Town Council
then held a study session, a series of six special sessions, and three public hearings on the map and
plan. With the results of these meetings and a positive fiscal analysis using the fiscal impact model,
the Council adopted the plan in June 2003 with a super-majority (four of five Council Members).
7 Introduction
Policy Document Oro Valley General Plan
Adopted May 29,2003 (revised)
Lastly, in November 2003, the Plan was submitted to the Town's voters for ratification by a majority
of the registered voters participating in that election.
GROWING SMARTER/PLUS FRAMEWORK
One of the Town's main objectives in updating Focus 2020 was to bring the Town into compliance
with new requirements for comprehensive planning passed by the State Legislature since the
adoption of the Town's existing General Plan (i.e., Focus 2020). The first major legislation was
adopted in 1998, when the State enacted "Growing Smarter" statutes that established a series of new
requirements for the preparation and adoption of general plans. These requirements were further
refined in 2000, when the legislature enacted statutes to address additional substantive and
scheduling issues. The 1998 Growing Smarter requirements combined with the 2000 refinements are
known collectively as "Growing Smarter/Plus." Three aspects of the new Growing Smarter/Plus
requirements were particularly important to Oro Valley's General Plan Update.
New Elements
The first new requirement was the necessity for the updated general plan to address new subject
areas, or "elements." For communities with over 2,500 and fewer than 50,000 residents, including
Oro Valley, the Arizona Revised Statutes (ARS) established the requirement for the preparation and
adoption of at least six elements: land use, circulation, open space, growth area, environmental
planning, and cost of development. Growing Smarter/Plus also established the option for smaller
communities to prepare some or all of the additional eight elements required of larger communities
(i.e., over 50,000). These are as follows: conservation; recreation; public services and facilities;
public buildings; housing; conservation, rehabilitation and redevelopment; safety; and bicycling. The
Town's 1996 General Plan (Focus 2020) contained ten elements, as shown in the table below. Thus,
according to State law, in updating the Plan Oro Valley was obliged to address four new element
requirements (growth area, environmental planning, cost of development, and water resources),
although some of the existing elements did address some of the substantive requirements of the
environmental planning and water resources elements. Under any circumstances, the Town faced
the challenge of updating the general plan to ensure consistency and balance among the elements—
and in particular between the existing and new elements.

Oro Valley General Plan Policy Document
Adopted May 29,2003 (revised)
Public Participation
The second new requirement established by Growing Smarter/Plus relates to public participation.
The updated statutes require that Arizona's towns, cities, and counties ensure thorough community
involvement in the preparation of their general plans. The Town of Oro Valley made a serious
commitment to that involvement through the preparation of its General Plan Update 2001 Public
Participation Action Plan. The Plan outlined a broad range of outreach tools and mechanisms to be
employed to engage the Town's key stakeholders in the update process.
Popular Pa tifica tion
The third major new requirement of Growing Smarter/Plus is very closely related to the new public
involvement requirements. It is the requirement that new general plans or major general plan
updates be subjected to a popular vote for ratification. This new requirement, which is unique in the
United States, requires a majority of the voters participating in the election to approve the general
plan that is approved for placement on the ballot by the Town Council.
ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN
The Town of Oro Valley intends this Plan be followed and consistently applied unless and until
conditions in the community have changed to the extent that the Plan requires amendment or
modification. When conditions warrant that the Plan be modified, such amendments are subject to
the process and approval set forth in the Plan according to Arizona law and the Town of Oro Valley
amendment process. Responsibility for administration of the Plan is shared by the Town Staff,
Planning and Zoning Department, Planning and Zoning Commission, Town Council, and Town
Citizens. This section describes the process and procedures that are to be utilized when updating,
amending and implementing the General Plan.
UPDATING THE PIAN
A General Plan Update is the adoption of or re-adoption of one or more elements of the General
Plan pursuant to Arizona Revised Statutes (ARS) §9-461.06L. The adoption or re-adoption of the
General Plan must be approved by an affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the members of the
Town Council and ratified by the voters pursuant to ARS §9-461.06L.
Frequency and Public Participation
The Growing Smarter/Plus statutes require that the General Plan be updated and ratified by the
residents of Oro Valley at least once every ten years, but due to changing conditions, the Town has
decided to update the General Plan every five years using the current General Plan as a point of
departure. The periodic review of the General Plan's progress referenced in the Strategic
Implementation Program will be used for the update.
The update process will start by evaluating the effectiveness of current General Plan in meeting all
community goals and determining necessary modifications. All General Plan updates are subject to
the public participation procedures adopted by Town Council, as may be amended by resolution,
according to ARS §9-461.06L.
Zoning Conformance with the General Plan
During each update process, an analysis of zoning as it conforms to the General Plan will be
performed to assess the status of parcels with zoning that does not conform.
9 Introduction
Policy Document Oro Valley General Plan
Adopted May 29,2003 (revised)
AMENDING THE PLAN
For the purposes of this Plan, an amendment is any change that occurs between the scheduled Plan
updates. Such amendments may involve a change to the Land Use Map for
specific properties or a
change to the text within an existing element of the Plan.
Each element of the Oro Valley General Plan includes an overarching statement that was created
based upon prevailing needs, existing development pattern, underlying zoning classifications,
considerations for man-made constraints, natural constraints, environmentally sensitive lands,
opportunities for development, accepted planning practices, and considerable public input. Over a
period of time, these variables are subject to change. Consequently, the General Plan must
periodically be reviewed and amended to ensure that it remains an effectiveoli guide.
P CY
Amendments to the General Plan should never be allowed to occur in a haphazard manner.
Amendments to the General Plan should only occur after careful review of the request, findings of
q g
facts (see below), and public hearing(s) by the Planning and Zoning Commission and Town Council.
The statutory requirements for the adoption of the General Plan shall be followed for all amendments
as they pertain to public hearings and otherwise.
Types of Amendments to the Plan
General Plan amendments may be classified as either "major" or "minor" amendments. Generally,
Y
amendments to the Plan will be changes to the Land Use Map. However, the same amendment
procedure is to be utilized when processing a text amendment.
Major Amendment. The Arizona Revised Statutes define a Major Amendment as "a substantial

amendments may only be submitted during two, two-month periods of the year. They must include
at least one neighborhood meeting early in the process for all changes to the Land Use Map.
Major Amendment Procedure. Major Amendments:
■ May only be submitted at one time during the year;
• Must go to two public hearings by the Planning and Zoning Commission (in different
locations);
■ Shall include two neighborhood meetings, one prior to the Planning Commission and one
prior to the Town Council;
® Must be presented to the Council at a single public hearing during the calendar year that the
proposal is made; and
• Must be adopted by a two-thirds vote of the Town Council.
Text amendments may not require neighborhood meetings.
Public Notification. Major amendments will include a public involvement program consistent with
state statutes. In addition, public notification for all General Plan amendments will be as follows:
mei
Introduction 12
Oro Valley General Plan Policy Document
Adopted May 29,2003 (revised)
• Notice of the proposed amendment will be advertised a minimum of two times in two widely
distributed newspapers.
■ All property owners within 1,000 feet of the subject property and all adjoining properties will
be directly notified of the amendment.
■ All Homeowners Associations (as listed in the Town HOA database) will be notified of the
amendment.
■ Signs noticing the proposed amendment will be posted on the property on a sign or signs
3'x4' in size, with white background and 5-inch letters.
Adoption of Amendment. The disposition of the General Plan amendment proposed shall be based
on meeting all of the following findings:
1. 1. The proposed change is sustainable by contributing to the socio-economic
betterment of the Community, while achieving community and environmental
compatibilityThe amendment, in its entirety, constitutes a benefit to the Town; and,
2. The amendment is substantially consistent with the vision, goals, and policies of the General
Plan; and,
3. The proposed change reflects market demand to assure viability and community acceptances
and,
The amendment will not adversely impact the community as a whole, or a portion of
the community without an acce•table means of miti:atin: these im acts throu:h the
subsequent zoning and development processes. -• . - I ::: - • •: . : • --•.
The applicant for the amendment shall have the burden of presenting facts and other materials to
support these conclusions by clear and convincing proof.
PROJECT CONFORMANCE WITH PLAN
Arizona State Law requires that zoning be in conformance with the General Plan. ARS Section §9-
462.01 F defines conformance as follows: "a rezoning ordinance conforms with the land use element
of the general plan if it proposes land uses, densities or intensities within the range of identified uses,
densities and intensities of the land use element of the general plan." All rezoning proposals and
development projects shall be evaluated for conformance with the Plan.
Rezoning Conformance
Per the Town's zoning code, "[a]ny new proposal for development, which does not comply [with the
General Plan], will be subject to denial by the Town Council." Thus, new development proposals
must match the land use map in accordance with the Town's zoning code and the requirements of
the State statute referenced above.
Further, the Growing Smarter Acts, as noted by the Arizona Department of Commerce Community
Planning Program, require that "all rezoning ordinances and regulations adopted shall not only be
consistent with, but must conform to the adopted General Plan. The rezoning ordinance shall further
the implementation of, and not be contrary to, the goals, policies, and applicable elements of the
Plan. A rezoning ordinance conforms to the Land Use Element if it proposes land uses, densities or
intensities within the range for the subject property as stated in the General Plan." To this end,
proposals for zoning change should be evaluated in relation to all of the policies in the General Plan
13 Introduction
Policy Document Oro Valley General Plan
Adopted May 29, 2003 (revised)
(not just the map and those in the Land Use Element). When a proposed zoning change is not in
compliance, the applicant will be required to amend the General Plan, or the proposal, prior to
initiating a rezoning.
Development Review
General Plan conformance shall also be used as a criterion in the approval or denial of other types of
development proposals, such as development plans, plats, and architecture. When considering a
development proposal, Town staff, the Planning and Zoning Commission, the Development Review
Board, and the Town Council will evaluate the proposal as to how it relates to the key concepts in
the General Plan. It is the burden of the applicant to provide clear and convincing proof, through an
analysis of each applicable policy, that the proposal is in conformance with the General Plan.
STRATEGIC IMPLEMENTATION PROGRAM
Arizona Revised Statutes (Section 9-461.07-A.2) require that, once the Plan is adopted and ratified,
the Town will, through its planning agency, annually prepare and provide a report to the Town
Council on the status of the Plan and progress in its application. In addition to this annual report, the
Town has developed a Strategic Implementation Program (SIP) to implement the Plan which, as
described below, would include a periodic and more complete review of the Plan.
The SIP is a companion document to the General Plan, approved by the Town Council, that specifies
action steps to be taken to implement the Plan. The purpose of developing the SIP as a separate
document is to institute a review of implementation progress. A reviewing committee will evaluate
the program and make recommendations to the Planning and Zoning Commission and Town
Council regarding potential changes to the Program. The Program may need to be changed based
on the Town's budget or changing conditions that were not anticipated when the SIP was prepared.
The SIP action items will directly relate to the Planning Commission's annual Work Plan and to the
Capital Improvements Program (CIP), as these programs implement the SIP action items. In this
manner the Work Plan and CIP will coordinate implementation of the General Plan. Responsible
Town departments identified in the SIP are to implement the Work Plan in the specific time frames
identified. The SIP may also be used during the CIP process to prioritize allocation of capital
funding.
Schedule
The annual CIP process begins in September and ends in February, in preparation of the Fiscal Year
Budget. The Work Plan is submitted each July, after budget approval. It is anticipated that the SIP
review will take place in the second or third years between updates and will precede the CIP
program in order to help prioritize and establish the long-term vision of the CIP program. The SIP
review will also take place at the start of each update of the Plan. The review will serve as the annual
report required by state statute in the years in which it is performed avig
Procedure
A committee consisting of representatives from all Town Departments, a representative from Town
Council, all relevant Boards and Commissions, and citizen representatives will conduct the SIP
review. There will be a public participation component that will include workshops and an open
house to both inform residents in the progress and implementation of the General Plan and to utilize
public input to prioritize the SIP action items.

Oro Valley General Plan Policy Document
Adopted May 29, 2003 (revised)
ORGANIZATION AND CONTENT OF PLAN DOCUMENT
This document is organized in a manner that allows it to address the statutory requirements of
Growing Smarter/Plus in a fashion that suits the unique circumstances of Oro Valley. Following this
Introduction, which sets the stage for the policy content of the General Plan, this document includes
13 elements that collectively address the Town's obligations for compliance with Growing
Smarter/Plus as well as addressing other issues that are of particular local importance. These elements
are as follows:
• Land Use Element(including Growth Areas)
• Community Design
• Economic Development
a Cost of Development
• Transportation/Circulation
• Public Facilities, Services, and Safety
▪ Housing
• Parks and Recreation
• Arts and Culture
• Cultural and Historical Resources
▪ Open Space and Natural Resource Conservation
a Water Resources
• Environmental Planning
Each of these elements is divided into a series of sections, the first four of which are uniform among
the elements. The existing conditions related to each element, are included in the General Plan
Background Report, as presented under Associated Documents below. The sections are as follows:
STATEMENT
For each element, there is a "Statement" that declares the overall intent of the element as it relates to
the specific interests of Oro Valley. It outlines the Town's expectations for the future of Oro Valley as
it relates to the subject matter covered in the element.
GROWING SMARTER/PLUS REQUIREMENTS
This section simply summarizes the relevant Growing Smarter/Plus requirements for each element.
This includes explanations of what content is mandated for Oro Valley and what issues the Town has
decided to address that are either not required for communities of Oro Valley's size or are not
addressed at all by Growing Smarter/Plus.
KEY POLICY ISSUES
This section presents the key policy issues that each element addresses, as identified during the
General Plan Public Participation Process.
GOALS AND POLICIES
This section presents the basic policy content of each element, with a series of goals that are related
to key topics. Under each goal is a set of policies intended to guide achievement of that goal. Goals
and policies are defined as follows:

OTHER ELEMENT CONTENTS
In addition to the sections described above, the Land Use and Circulation/Transportation Elements
also include maps and associated standards. The Land Use Element includes the General Plan Land
Use Map along with descriptions of permitted uses and standards of density and intensity for all of
the designations that appear on the map. The Circulation Element includes a Circulation Element
Map that depicts roadway classifications.
Finally, the Land Use Element also includes a separate section addressing amendments to the
General Plan, with a particular focus on defining what constitutes a "major amendment" p er the
requirements of Growing Smarter/Plus.
ASSOCIATED DOCUMENTS
As part of the General Plan Update, several documents were prepared to support the development
of this Pp
Document. This included the General Plan Background Report, which was published
separately and is available for review or purchase through the Town. The Background Report
documents existing conditions and highlights findings relevant to land use, development, and
resource conservation. Also published separately as part of the General Plan Update were several
appendices that documented activities undertaken as part of the Update process. This includes a
summary of the Community Interest Survey, a summary of the results of a series of Town
representative interviews conducted early in the Update process, and summaries of the Open House
meetings that the Town conducted to gather public input at various stages during the process. These
appendices are also available through the Town.
It should be noted that these associated documents are not formally adopted as part of the General
Plan, and thus are not subject to popular ratification. They are simply descriptive documentation of
relevant issues related to the General Plan and its preparation.
Introduction 16
Oro Valley General Plan Policy Document
Adopted May 29, 2003 (revised)
1. LAND USE
STATEMENT
The Oro Valley Planning Area will continue to project a residential/resort character where the living
environment for residents and visitors is emphasized. Orderly growth that focuses primarily on low-
density development is especially important to the community, as is development that is sensitive to
and compatible with the Sonoran Desert environment.
GROWING SMARTER/PLUS R.E UIRE ENTS
According to the State's Growing Smarter/Plus statutes, the land use element must accomplish the
following:
• Designates the proposed general distribution and location and extent of such uses of the land
for housing, business, industry, agriculture, recreation, education, public buildings and
grounds, open space and other categories of public and private uses of land as may be
appropriate to the municipality.
• Includes a statement of the standards of population density and building intensity
recommended for the various land use categories covered by the general plan.
• Identifies specific programs and policies that the municipality may use to promote infill or
compact form development activity and locations where those development patterns should
be encouraged.
• Includes consideration of air quality and access to incident solar energy for all general
categories of land use. (Note: Air quality issues are also addressed in the Open Space and
Natural Resources Conservation Element and solar access is addressed in the Community
Design Element.)
• Includes policies that address maintaining a broad variety of land uses including the range of
uses existing in the municipality when the general plan is adopted, readopted or amended.
In addressing these requirements, the Land Use Element functions as a guide for Town officials (both
elected and appointed), the general public, the development community, and other interested
parties as to the ultimate pattern of development in Oro Valley. The Land Use Element has the
broadest scope of the elements mandated by Growing Smarter/Plus. It plays a central role in
correlating all land use issues into a set of coherent development policies that relate directly to the
otherg eneral plan elements. In practice, it is the most visible and often used element in the local
general plan.
In addition to establishing the Town's development policy in broad terms, the land use element plays
a pivotal role in short-term zoning, subdivision, and public works decisions, providing a long-range
context for those short-term actions.
This Land Use Element also considers Growing Smarter/Plus' requirement for a Growth Areas
Element. According to the statutes, the general plan must accomplish the following:
• Identifies those areas, if any, that are particularly suitable for planned multimodal
transportation and infrastructure expansion and improvements designed to support a planned
concentration of a variety of uses, such as residential, office, commercial, tourism and
industrial uses.
is
1 7 Land Use
Policy Document Oro Valley General Plan
Adopted May 29, 2003 (revised)
This element shall include policies and implementation strategies that are designed to:
• Make automobile, transit and other multimodal circulation more efficient, make
infrastructure expansion more economical and provide for a rational pattern of land
development.
• Conserve significant natural resources and open space areas in the growth area and
coordinate their location to similar areas outside the growth area's boundaries.
• Promote the public and private construction of timely and financially sound infrastructure
expansion through the use of infrastructure funding and financial planning that is coordinated
with development activity.
The intent of the Growth Areas Element requirement is to have communities focus on opportunities
for appropriate infill development, rather than continuing to promote development on the edges of
currently developed areas. It is essentially an effort to incorporate anti-sprawl policies into general
plans. As implied by the first major bulleted item above, the statutes do not mandate that every
community identify growth areas. Rather, communities have the discretion to determine if the
provisions apply locally.
KE ` POLICY BRAS
Through the course of preparing the General Plan, a wide variety of land use and development issues
were addressed. Brief summaries of these Key Policy Issues are provided below.
PRESERVATION OF THE SONORAN DESERT/MAINTENANCE OF CONNECTED NATURAL OPEN SPACE
The preservation of the Sonoran Desert environment and maintenance of connected natural open
space are critical elements of the community's vision and cornerstones of the General Plan. It is
important that the Town balances the interests of private property owners with the protection of the
Sonoran Desert. Creating connectivity of natural open space of varying size provides habitat for
diverse wildlife and shapes the overall form of the community. (This issue is also addressed in the
Open Space and Natural Resources Conservation Element.)
MAINTAINING LOW-DENSITY CHARACTER WHILE PERMITTING DIVERSITY OF DEVELOPMENT TYPES
Oro Valley residents value the low-density residential character of the Planning Area to provide
buffer zones and recreation areas and maintain natural topography and connected natural open
space. However, Oro Valley's predominant development pattern provides for large areas of
homogeneous housing separated from services and other types of housing. Some aspects of this
pattern of development are not conducive to pedestrian access to services, efficient infrastructure
investment, or diverse social interaction. In some cases, this development pattern could result in
increased environmental impacts, traffic congestion, monotony in residential subdivision design, and
strip development that is oriented to the automobile.
ZONING ENTITLEMENTS
A large amount of land within the Planning Area is entitled through current zoning. Thus, only certain
areas have potential for change through the Town's development review and approval process.
REVENUE ENHANCEMENT
The Town's economy (discussed further in the Economic Development Element) is currently fueled
by new construction, primarily residential development. In order for the Town to be self-sustaining
and weather the building cycles, it will need to diversify its economic base, balancing the Town's
.k.
s?':i
Land Use 18
Oro Valley General Plan Policy Document
Adopted May 29,2003 (revised)
interest in maintaining its primarily low-density character with the need for financial stability and
infrastructure efficiency.
COMMUNITY IDENTITY
As areas are annexed to the Town, the distinction between Oro Valley and adjacent communities
may be blurred. New development and redevelopment in these areas will need to be directed if the
distinct character of Oro Valley's identity is to be maintained.
GOALS AND POLICIES
PRESERVATION OF SONORAN DESERT/MAINTENANCE OF CONNECTED NATURAL OPEN SPACE
1.1 To preserve Oro Valley's natural Sonoran Desert environment and the scenic resources
that are an important part of the community's quality of life. (See also Open Space and
Natural Resources Conservation Element.)
1.1.1 Promote clustering of development to protect environmentally sensitive areas and to preserve
significant, passive use, natural open space within residential neighborhoods. In large-lot or
mufti-family developments, clustering may also be accomplished by placing building pads
close to each other, while employing other mechanisms to protect remaining natural open
space. (See also Policy 11.1.1111.1.11.)
1.1.2 Continue to consider development impacts on natural rolling terrain and emphasize
low-density developments in these areas. This will include evaluating areas with slopes of 15
percent and greater for development compatibility and safety, with the possibility of
preserving them as natural open space. The Town strives to avoid annexation commitments
that compromise the Ian ;oafs or olicies.
1.1.3 The Town shall continue to avoid development encroachment into washes, riparian areas,
designated natural open space and environmentally sensitive lands. In cases where
encroachment is unavoidable, such as in the case of utility or public safety, require
compensation or trade to offset the loss of natural area.
1.1.4 Commit to preserve, protect, and enhance the visual qualities of Oro Valley and surrounding
visually significant areas, such as ridgelines, and closely monitoring or reacting quickly to
development plans of neighboring communities, and county, state, and federal agencies.
Thus, view protection shall be an essential aspect of Oro Valleys community development
review and project approval process. Where possible, encourage permanent protection of
scenic vistas, especially from the Oracle Road Scenic Corridor, the Tangerine Road Corridor,
and other corridors as specified in Policy 11.3.111.3.1. (See also Policy 5.4.3.)
1.1.5 The Town shall continue to require that all new development in areas with sensitive wildlife
use fencing compatible with wildlife movement.
1.1.6 The Town shall continue to require the delineation of building envelopes on lots exceeding
15,000 square feet to encourage the retention of natural buffers between housing units.
Building envelopes designate the specific areas that can be disturbed in any way during or
following construction. The area outside the building envelope must be maintained in a
natural state. (See also Policy 11.2.17.)
1.1.7 In areas adjacent to public lands(e.g., Coronado National Forest, Tortolita Mountain Park,
Catalina State Park), promote acquisition of land to further protect or enhance valuable
19 Land Use
Policy Document Oro Valley General Plan
Adopted May 29,2003 (revised)
natural areas. As appropriate, cooperate and/or partner with county, state and federal
agencies (e.g., Coronado National Forest) to pursue acquisition.
COMMUNITY IDENTITY
1.2 To maintain Oro Valley's distinct identity consistent with community values.
1.2.1 Maintain Oro'Valley's predominantly low-density character while considering needs of
financial stability and infrastructure efficiency.
1.2.2 Coordinate with Pima County and other jurisdictions to ensure that development proposals
in the Planning Area are compatible with the character of Oro Valley.
1.2.3 Ensure that new development projects at the key entry points to Oro Valley contain
distinctive gateway characteristics.
DEVELOPMENT DIVERSITY
1.3 To promote a compatible mix of land uses throughout the Oro Valley Planning Area.
1.3.1 Encourage the location of residential neighborhoods close to activity centers compatible with
residential uses, and vice versa.
1.3.2 Encourage new development to locate uses that depend on convenient transportation access
(e.g., higher density residential and commercial) near major arterial streets.
1.3.3 Encourage the establishment of new commercial uses in areas so designated on the land use
map near new residential neighborhoods . -- -. - -- : : - :,
current retail sites, with the type, scale, and potential for buffering to be taken into account.
1.3.4 Encourage clustering of commercial developments at specific nodes or villages that are
planned with strict aesthetic and design guidelines. The Town shall discourage strip
commercial developments and free-standing pads.
1.3.5 Encourage master planning that looks comprehensively at the subject properties and all
adjacent areas.
1.3.6 Encourage new developments to incorporate accommodations for non-motorized travel in
their design.
GENERAL LAND USE
1.4 To proactively guide future development in the Planning Area.
1.4.1 The Town shall continue to require detailed site analysis for plan submittals. The information
from the site analysis will be used in deciding the approval or denial of land use proposals.
When appropriate, site tours or inspections will be performed by the Planning and Zoning
Commission, Development Review Board and Town Council.
1.4.2 Continue to ensure that zoning near natural open space, parks, washes, trails, trailheads,
schools, recreation areas, Tortolita Mountain Park, Catalina State Park, and Pusch Ridge
Wilderness provides adequate buffers and compatible uses.
1.4.3 The Town shall continue to incrementally update its zoning to ensure that it is in
conformance with the General Plan. This will be accomplished through rezonings that
replace zoning that is incompatible with the uses designated on the General Plan.

1.4.4 Prohibit heavy industrial and outdoor commercial uses that require significant infrastructure,
introduce greater truck traffic, or are visually and environmentally incompatible with the
Town's vision.
1.4.5 Work with La Cholla Airpark, Inc., and the County to adopt off-airport land use compatibility
controls to protect the airport from encroachment by incompatible uses and to ensure the
safety of nearby residents.
1.4.6 Ensure that approval of higherincreased densities approved for high density residential
projects is-are based on reducing the negative impacts on adjacent lower density residential
projects and providing additional landscaping, open space, and other amenities.
1.4.7 The Town shall continue to require adequate buffering of commercial and employment uses
from adjacent neighborhoods, with special consideration being given to placing office or
other less intense uses adjacent to the residential areas.
1.4.8 The Town shall continue to require that Commerce/Office Park uses locate lower intensity
uses along arterial streets with adequate setbacks to reduce the visibility of larger, more
intense uses.
1.4.9 The Town shall provide other jurisdictions an opportunity to comment on all General Plan
amendments within, or within one-quarter mile of, the planning areas of those jurisdictions.
1.4.10 Establish procedures to ensure the coordinated development of vacant areas of 40 acres or
more either under multiple or single ownership by requiring the development of master
plans for those areas. These master plans must consider and seek to minimize the impact of
development on all adjoining properties.
LAND USE AND AiR QUALITY
1.5 To promote land use planning practices that benefit the air quality of Oro Valley and the
region (See also Policy 11.3.411.3.4.)
1.5.1 Continue to encourage high density development to concentrate along existing or planned
transit corridors within growth areas.

1.5.81.5.7 Prepare standards for evaluating developments of regional impact(regional traffic
generators), including an analysis of other committed orp
P lanned development within a
project's impact area.
LAND USE MAP
The Land Use Map for the General Plan depicts the proposedg eneral uses of land within Oro
Valley. It functions as official Town policy on the allocation and distribution of different land uses.
This pattern of land uses is shown on the Land Use Map by means of various land use designations,
each of which denotes specific types of land use. The boundary lines between land use designations
are shown as precisely as possible, and generally follow property lines, washes, and/or roads. The
Town's Zoning Map implements the General Plan land use designations by ordinance at a much
more detailed, parcel-specific level.
LAND USE STANDARDS
Following is a brief explanation of the Town's approach to stating land use intensity standards for the
designations appearing on the Land Use Map, followed by descriptions of the uses permitted under
p
and standards associated with each designation.
In addition to characterizing land use designations according to types of allowable uses, the General
Plan must, according to state law, specify for each land use designation standards of population
density and building intensity.
Standards of building intensity for residential uses are stated in this General Plan in terms of the
allowable range of dwelling units per acre. The density ranges are applied as follows:
1. The maximum number of dwelling units allowed on a particular -
desi iece of residentially-
designated Y
gnated property is based on the size of the area under discussion (e.g., aP arcel) and
the maximum density permitted under the residential designation applied to that
property. For instance, an area of 40 acres with a designation of LDR2 could have up to
80 dwelling units.
2. Densities within portions of the area may be higher than the maximum in the land use
designation as long as the maximum number of units is not exceeded and the land use
matches the land use description. For example, if the description is for ,sin le-famil
g Y
detached land uses, the land use cannot be townhomes or any other attached housing.
g
Standards of population density for residential uses can be derived by multiplying l the maximum
�
number of dwellings per acre by the average number of persons per dwelling unit, which for
purposes of this General Plan is assumed to be 2.41 persons (based on the average household size
reported in the 2000 Census).
Standards of building intensity for non-residential uses
are stated in terms of maximum allowable floor-area Various Building Configurations
ratios (FARs). A floor-area ratio is the ratio of the gross Representing an FAR of 1.00
building square footage permitted on a lot to the net
square footage of the lot. For example, on a lot with
10,000 net square feet of land area, an FAR of 1.00 will �-
allow 10,000 square feet of gross square feet of building
floor area to be built, regardless of the number of stories _ .

in the building (e.g., 5,000 square feet per floor on two floors or 10,000 square feet on one floor).
On the same lot, an FAR of 0.50 would allow 5,000 square feet of floor area and FAR of 0.25 would
allow 2,500 square feet. The diagram to the right illustrates how buildings of one and two stories
could be developed on a given lot with an FAR of 1.00.
LAND USE DESIGNATIONS
The Land Use Map of this General Plan uses 14 land use designations to depict the types of land uses
that will be allowed in Oro Valley. The land use designations on the map are policy
recommendations only. The designations may not represent the actual zoning on properties. No
decisions regarding land use purchases or future construction should be based solely on these
designations. For information regarding the most current zoning entitlements on a property, refer to
the official Zoning Map and the Zoning Code available at the Town Clerk's Office
Following are brief descriptions of the intent of each of the land use designations appearing on the
Land Use Map. Note that emergency services uses (e.g., police and fire) may be permitted under
all designations with appropriate review.
Rural Low-Density Residential(R-LDR, 0-0.3 DU/AC)
This land use designation denotes areas of large lot single-family detached development in a rural
environment. Rural low-density residential designation areas range up to 0.3 dwelling units per acre.
Areas of rural residential development are appropriate where there is a desire to retain a rural
lifestyle or where protection of the natural environment is necessary.
Low-Density Residential(LDR1, 0.4-1.2 DU/AC)
The district denotes areas where single-family detached residential development is desirable, but only
if it is at a density that will permit retention of a rural, open character. Low-density residential
designation areas range up to 1.2 dwelling units per acre. Delineation of building envelopes on
individual lots is also encouraged to clearly indicate which areas will be disturbed and which will not.
Low-Density Residential(LDR2, 1.3-2.0 DU/AC)
The district denotes areas where single-family detached residential development is desirable, but only
if it is at a density that will permit retention of an open character. Low-density residential designation
areas range up to 2.0 dwelling units per acre. Delineation of building envelopes on individual lots is
also encouraged to clearly indicate which areas will be disturbed and which will not
Medium-Density Residential(MDR, 2.1-5.0 DU/AC)
This designation is where single-family detached, townhouse, or patio home development is suitable,
ranging from 2.1 to 5.0 dwelling units per acre. These areas should be located close to schools,
shopping, and employment.
High-Density Residential(HDR, 5.1+ DU/AC)
This land use designation denotes areas where single-family attached, mobile or manufactured
housing (within the existing Highlands subdivision), townhouse, patio home, condominium, and
apartment development is appropriate. These areas should be located close to arterial access and
shopping and employment opportunities. High traffic volume impacts on local, lower density
residential streets are discouraged.

Policy Document Oro Valley General Plan
Adopted May 29, 2003 (revised)
Master Planned Community(MPC)
This land use designation refers to areas where large multi-use developments should be planned and
developed in a comprehensive manner. Density ranges will be determined at the time of rezoning
by
examining the development plan and development impact analysis. Any Land Use Map amendment
proposal for a new MPC designation requires the submittal of a concept plan. Also see Special Area
Policies starting on page 2626.
Resort and Golf Course (RGC)
This designation denotes areas where resorts, country clubs and golf courses are appropriate. Resorts
include hotel accommodations, restaurants, health clubs, and recreation facilities. Countryclubs do
not include hotel accommodations. Golf courses may include specific golf-related activities such as
clubhouses, driving ranges, and storage yards.
Neighborhood Commercial and Office (NCO)
This designation denotes commercial and office areas located with good arterial access (i.e., at the
intersections of arterial roadways or along Oracle Road) that are close to residential areas. Within
these areas, uses such as grocery stores, drugstores, and offices tend to serve the surrounding
b
neighborhoods and are integrated with those neighborhoods. Offices include professional offices,
tourism-related businesses, and services. The recommended maximum FAR in the NCO designation
is that of the C-1 zoning district.
Community/Regional Commercial(CRC)
This designation is for commercial areas at the intersections of principal arterials. Uses may include
variety stores, small department stores, and large-scale commercial uses (such as major department
stores) that can be sited to serve regions of the metropolitan area. The recommended maximum FAR
in the CRC designation is that of the C-2 zoning district.
Commerce/Office Park(COP)
This designation denotes areas where commercial, office, and/or light manufacturing can occur.
These uses can occur in a planned business park-type of environment with clustered buildings and
inward focused activity. Commerce parks often include a mix of light industrial, professional office,
office/showroom, office/warehouse, retail services, and related uses. The specific zoningdistrict will
p
be determined based upon site use, adjacent land use impact, and intensityof development. The
o p
recommended maximum FAR in the COP designation is that of the Technological Park zoning
district.
Public/Semi-Public(PSP)
This designation denotes acreage dedicated for public or semi-public uses, which include churches,
police/fire substations, Town facilities, and hospitals. The recommended maximum FAR in the PSP
designation is that of the Technological Park zoning district.
Schools (SCH)
Schools are public or private places of general instruction including public and charter schools where
grades K-12 are taught, and junior and four-year colleges and universities. The recommended
maximum FAR in the PSP designation is that of the Technological Park zoning district.

Parks (PARK)
This designation denotes areas that have been developed or set-aside as public/semi-public
recreational facilities.
Open Space (OS)
These are natural open space areas that have been preserved through zoning, conservation
easements, or public ownership.
Significant Resource Area (SRA)
This designation denotes areas that contain key historic or archeological sites or other
environmentally sensitive lands. It is an overlay that includes areas that have been preserved and
those that should be preserved through the methods listed in the Open Space and Natural Resources
Conservation Element. -• - . •. . •: • • •-••:, • ny development that takes place in them

resource area. Mitigation of development impacts should also blend with the natural landscape,
promote .reservation of scenic vistas_.rotect wildlife habitat and cluster develo.ment within the
least sensitive portions of the SRA.
In order to preserve property within an SRA overlay zone, densities may be transferred from within
the SRA overlay zone to other areas of a property. The transferable density (TD) within the SRA
overlay shall: 1) for residential areas, be the lowest density allowable in the underlying land use
designation(s); and 2), for non-residential areas, be at an FAR of .10. However, no TD credit shall be
given for areas, such as slopes over 15%, floodways, significant vegetation, or riparian habitat, that
are already restricted relative to densities by the Zoning Code. This density transfer may increase the
allowable density in those portions of the property to which density is transferred above the stated
density range for the land use designations) in that area. However, density transfers must meet the
following criteria:
1. The density at the periphery of the property shall not exceed either that of the underlying
designation or the adjoining property, whichever is greater.
2. The resultant land use within any designation on the property must be consistent with the
description of the housing type provided in the land use section. Thus if an area is described
as single-family detached housing, the density transfer could not effectuate a single-family
attached development. Or if the area is designated for single-family housing of any kind, it
could not be developed for multi-family uses.
National Forest(NF)
This designation is applied only to the Coronado National Forest. The Pusch Ridge Wilderness
borders Oro Valley, providing the scenic backdrop for the Town, an area where only non-motorized
and non-mechanized recreational use is permitted.

GROWTH AREAS
The Town has identified five "growth areas," as follows:
1. Oracle Road/Tangerine Road: Southeast Rancho Vistoso commercial center, the campus
industrial park in Rancho Vistoso Neighborhood 3, and adjacent areas.
2. Oracle Road/First Avenue: The Target Center, Steam Pump Village, Honeywell, and adjacent
areas.
g Y
w
3. Oracle Road/Magee Road/Ina Road: The areas adjacent to these intersections and between
the intersections along Oracle Road.
4. Foothills Mall Area: Bounded generally by La Cholla, Ina, Shannon, and Magee Roads.
5. La Cholla Road/Tangerine Road: The area encompassing the southeast, southwest, and
northwest corners of the intersection of La Cholla and Tangerine.
As defined in the State statutes, these are areas "that are particularlysuitable for planned multi-modal
transportation and infrastructure expansion and improvements designed to
a support planned
P�
concentration of a variety of uses, such as residential, office, commercial, tourism and industrial
uses."
URBAN SERVICES BOUNDARY
Figure 3: Land Use Map delineates an Urban Services Boundary (USB) around most of the Planning
Area. The Town does not intend to provide urban infrastructure to areas outside of the USB. These
areas should not receive any increase in density or land use intensity over what currently exists.
SPECIAL AREA POLICIES
Kai-Capri (including the approximately 10-acre Steam Pump Ranch Estates propertyin the
southeast corner of the area)
General
1. Transfers of residential densities are permitted and encouraged in the area. Primaryreceiving
g
areas are: (1) the graded area in the north central portion of the site; and (2) areas adjacent
to Rooney Ranch no more than 660 feet north of the south boundary and no farther east
than the east edge of Palisades splits. Units should be transferred off the following areas: (1)
SRAs, (2) areas along North First Avenue (especially the area between the road and the
Palisades Splits parcels), and (3) the area southeast and visible from Palisades
Splits parcels.
p
2. Transfers of densities from SRAs that are not riparian areas (including 50-foot buffers),
floodplains, or 25 percent slopes may be calculated at up to 1.0 unitsP er acre. Transfers of
densities off the other SRA, or building within any SRA, should be at no more than 0.4 units
per acre.

3. Primitive trails, with public access easements, shall be provided unless otherwise prohibited
by law. These will be within the existing wash areas, will connect to the open space area
adjacent to the north boundary of the site, and will provide a connection from the Palisades
Split Area southeasterly to the wash.
4. Any change to the General Plan that would allow more than 1.0 units per acre, over all, on
the residential area on the property shall be treated as a major amendment. As currently
mapped, the maximum number of residential units on the Kai-Capri Property is 255; and up
to 10 are allowed on the Steam Pump Ranch Estates property. Any change of the
commercial area to residential uses shall be treated as a major amendment.
5. The Oro Valley Zoning Code Revised will apply.
Neighborhood Commercial/Office (NCO)
1. Must be developed for commercial and office uses as part of an overall master plan that
includes planning for the MPC property to the south.
2. Any building within 200 feet of North First Avenue shall not be higher than 25 feet as
measured from the finished grade of North First Avenue, unless the applicant demonstrates
by a viewshed analysis that a greater building height will not interfere with views of the
Catalinas.
3. A minimum of 40% of the North First. Avenue frontage to a depth of 300 feet must be
maintained as a view corridor and not used for building purposes.
4. The commercial areas shall not extend, on North First Avenue, to the south of the Evergreen
(Walgreen's) development.
Master Planned Community
1. Must be developed for residential uses as part of an overall master plan that includes
planning for the NCO property to the north.
2. No building within 200 feet of North First Avenue, or within 150 feet of Palisades Road or
existing development shall be higher than 18 feet, unless the applicant demonstrates by a
viewshed analysis that a greater building height will not interfere with views of the Catalinas.
3. There shall be no development in the 100-year floodplain, riparian areas or on any slopes of
25% or more, excluding roadway and utilities.
4. The only housing type permitted is single-family detached residence.
5. Mass grading for residential uses is allowed only in disturbed areas. Any mass grading shall
require the approval of the Planning and Zoning Administrator.
6. No buildings shall be constructed within 100 feet of the east property line adjacent to existing
residential areas.
Area North of the Nara* Town Site
Public/Semi-Public uses are designated on the property for the purpose of partnering with the
Department of Energy (DOE) to develop a pilot project related to energy and solar technologies
research, development and demonstrations. As this type of use involves corporate partnerships, the
uses in Commerce/Office Park are appropriate where they support the joint DOE-Town projects.

Kelly Ranch
Seek to acquire the Kelly Ranch property through a joint effort with the National Forest Service,
Arizona State Parks, and Pima County, monitor the Keller Nursery property, and maintain the
Significant Resource Area designation on the whole property.
La Cholla-Tangerine
For the safety of school children and to reduce impacts on surrounding neighborhoods, access onto
Glover g
er should be limited to the extent possible. Primarily, access should be onto La Cholla.
Only single family residential uses are allowed adjacent to Wilson K-8 School.
The master plan required for the La Cholla-Tangerine Area (per Policy 1.4.10) will address safe and
direct access to the Wilson School especially options for crossing La Cholla when it is fully developed.
ed.
Guidelines for Commercial Development:
1. Uses such as manufacturing involving toxic materials, regional commercial uses (e.g., big box
retailers), motels, and 24-hour convenience stores/gas stations are not considered to be
appropriate commercial.
2. More intense uses such as hotels and retail commercial shall be located closer to arterial
street access points and away from existing, less intense uses.
3. Buildings shall transition from a community commercial scale in the core to a scale
comparable to residential areas along the perimeter.
4. The only permitted high density residential uses are congregate care, assisted living care, and
skilled nursing facilities.

2. COMMUNITY DESIGN
STATEMENT
The Town should, to thereatest extent possible, integrate the manmade elements into the natural
g
environment with greatsensitivity and with minimal disruption to existing topographic forms and
ecosystems. In order to foster the realization of these goals of sensitive development and minimal
disruption to the existingnatural environment, it is critical that future development be sensitively
p
located with large areas of the natural desert left in an undisturbed state for the enjoyment of all
residents and the continued viability of existing biotic communities.
GROWING SMARTER PLUS REQUIREMENTS
The State's Growing Smarter/Plus statutes do not include any requirements for addressing community
design withingeneral plans, for communities of any size. The Town's decision to address these is
g
entirely optional.
KEY POLICY ISSUES
DESIGN GUIDELINES
The Town's Zoning Ordinance includes Design Guidelines which cannot be static. They need to
continue to evolve and respond to the future development of the Town to provide consistency,
continuity, relationship to natural colors and textures, and reduction of visual clutter. These
guidelines apply to site planning, landscaping, and architecture.
SITE PLANNING
A majorg oal of Oro Valley is to preserve the existing natural Sonoran Desert to the greatest extent
P
ossible for existingand future generations. Large-scale development in view corridors, grading of
large areas, the introduction of non-native plant species, and the destruction of habitat are prime
issues related to community design.
SIGNAGE
Increased commercial activity has added signage throughout the Town. Signage controls have to
balance citizens concerns about the increasing level of signage with the needs of businesses to attract
customers.
LIGHTING
Increased development threatens our dark skies for the region's astronomers and Town residents.
However, the desire for dark skies needs to consider safety in areas where security is a major,
demonstrated concern, such as schools and large shopping center parking lots.

GOALS AND POLICIES
BUILT ENVIRONMENT
2.1 To ensure that the built environment is aesthetically pleasing and compatible with the
natural surroundings.
2.1.1 Continue to promote architectural themes and project site design that blends the built
environment with natural surroundings. Project design should adhere to the following
guidelines:
• Building height and bulk should be moderate to low intensity, in harmony with
individual site attributes.
• Use earth tone colors and colors predominant in the surrounding natural landscape;
• Masonry/tile materials are strongly preferred.
• Parking lots with greater than 20-car capacity shall be screened from adjacent uses
and public thoroughfares, clustered or distributed to reduce heat concentration,
increase landscape areas, and provide green belts.
• Require residential development calling for building height in excess of 18 feet to
1111,
show a variety of rooflines.
® Those delineated in Policy 11.3.311.3.3.
2.1.2 Require new development projects to explore solutions that employ natural materials and
prohibit designs that channelize watercourses except where extreme threats to public safety +i
would exist if the watercourse were not channelized.
2.1.3 Per the Drainage Design Manual, the Town shall continue to require the use of soft materials
containing integral desert colors for erosion protection, as opposed to concrete lining.
g
2.1.4 Require that all development proposals depict an arrangement of and massing of buildings
and/or arrangement of lots to minimize impacts on views from adjacent properties and
streets and from properties and streets internal to the proposed project while providing
privacy for residents.
2.1.5 The Town shall continue to require that all development proposals employ design strategies
that minimize changes to existing topography and the disturbance of existing vegetation.
2.1.6 Require that buildings be designed with recognition that all sides of the buildings, including
the roofs, may affect their surroundings.
2.1.7 In order to maximize integration of the built environment with the natural environment and
to minimize distractions of the built environment, require all new development proposals to
incorporate means of reducing the apparent size and bulk of buildings.
2.1.8 The Town shall continue to require that all landscape improvements adhere to the following
general guidelines:
• Maintain a predominantly natural desert image and conserving water resources;
® Preserve, restore, and enhance the ecological and scenic qualities of the natural
landscape;
• Mitigate negative visual impacts of buildings and parking lots;
• Add aesthetic charm, interest and character; and
• Improve the functional use of a site.
Community Design 34
Oro Valley General Plan Policy Document
Adopted May 29, 2003 (revised)
2.1.9 Require that all new development proposals consider existing landscaping within 400 feet of
the project site to provide and maintain landscape continuity within the community.
2.1.10Create standards for signage to provide information and direction to allow businesses to
attract and maintain customers with the least intrusive signage possible.
2.1.11 Provide architectural design criteria to help the Town develop an architectural "character"
without being so rigid as to hamper creative architectural expression.
SOLAR DESIGN
2.2 To ensure access to, and control of, incident solar energy.
2.2.1 Promote site planning and architectural design that reduces heating and cooling demands,
provides more comfortable indoor and outdoor living spaces, and avoids blocking or
reflecting sun on adjacent public spaces or buildings.
LIGHTING
2.3 To ensure the maintenance of dark skies and at the same time provide for the safety of its
residents.
2.3.1 Ensure that new development provides adequate lighting levels to meet the security standards
of the Illuminating Engineering Society of North America, and place fixtures and require
lamp types that minimize light pollution.

3. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
STATEMENT
Oro Valley's economic future is interwoven with its distinctive communitycharacter based on a
x�y
residential/resort image and its proximito the Pusch Ridge Wilderness, Coronado National Forest,
and Catalina State Park. Diversification in the local revenue base is desirable. However, any new
development must be consistent with the community's vision for the future and values.
GROWING SMARTER/PLUS REQUIREMENTS
The State's Growing Smarter/Plus statutes do not include any requirements for addressing economic
development within general plans, for communities of any size.
KEY POLICY ISSUES
DIVERSIFICATION OF THE ECONOMY
The current reliance the community has on growth and development to fuel its economy leaves Oro
Valley vulnerable to economic fluctuations. As the Town approaches bu(|d-out development will
slow down and the revenue it currently generates will have to be replaced. Diversification of this
revenue stream with high-quality, low-impact development may allow the Town to provide services
without increasing or adding new taxes or fees as new revenue sources. Resort-based tourism and
eco-tourism, which depend on the natural and cultural resources of the region, are a natural fit with
the Town's environmental ethic.
RETAIL DEVELOPMENT/LEAKAGE
A high percentage of Oro Valley residents spend a significant amount of money outside of the Town
reducing the financial benefits to the Town. Creation of preferred high-end shopping opportunities
through development and annexation could reduce retail leakage.
JOB CREATION
There are some retail and service sector jobs available, but the majority of its residents are
professionally employed. Therefore, the local businesses must import employees to work in Oro
Valley while residents must leave the Town to work. The vast majority of Oro Valley working
residents leave the Town to work. There is a need in Oro Valley for high-tech, campus-type office
development with opportunities for professional employment so that residents can work in the Town.
REVENUE GENERATION
Sales tax revenues are not the only source of income for the Town. Development fees, user fees,
property taxes, and annexations are other methods to pay for services.

3.1.1 To ensure that future growth reflects the desires of the community in balance with an analysis
of the Town's financial needs, maintain and periodically update the Town's Community
Economic Development Strategy to ensure that future development will complement
community values and implement the community's economic vision for the future, while
maintaining the ability of Oro Valley to attract and retain desirable businesses.
3.1.2 Continue to strive for a diverse economic base that will help reduce Oro Valley's dependence
on revenues derived from growth-related sources. Encourage and support the following
types of uses as means of diversifying the local tax base, increasing local employment
opportunities, and decreasing expenditure leakage to nearby communities.
• Hospital and health services.
▪ Technology-related employers (e.g., biotech, optics).
• High-end commercial establishments.
• Businesses that provide services to and support the retirement community, such as
medical supplies or geriatric specialists.
• Tourism and eco-tourism related to the area's natural amenities and cultural history,
including Catalina State Park, Coronado National Forest, and the Biosphere.
• Higher education facilities.
3.1.3 Make strategic public investments, such as capital improvements, that support P
ro app riate,
desirable economic development.
3.1.4 Continue its efforts to attract new high-end retail and service businesses, especially those in
under-represented categories, in order to help reduce expenditure leakage.
3.1.5 Require the preparation of economic impact analyses for all major development proposals
(defined as commercial, employment, or multi-family developments over 20 acres or any
development with over 200 residential acres) and proposed annexations to the Town.
3.1.6 Support the development of high quality employment-related uses that are compatible and
consistent with the scale, character, and workforce of the community. Campus-type
employment centers that emphasize a unified architectural theme, pedestrian orientation,
and a natural landscaping theme are encouraged.
3.1.7 Consider alternative revenue sources, such as aroc tax and additional impact/user p p p ct/user fees
as alternative revenue sources.
3.1.8 Recruit commercial businesses and other employment-related uses that do not negatively
g Y
impact the neighboring residential areas.
3.1.9 The Town supports annexations that are economically beneficial to the Town and, to the
extent Iossible will strive toward annexing these areas without creating negative impacts to
the safet views or inte:ri of existing.neighborhoods. There will be a provision for
adequate notice for all pre-annexation agreements.

4. COST OF DEVELOPMENT
STATEMENT
This Cost of Development Element articulates the Town's interest in ensuring that new development in
Oro Valley does its fair share to perpetuate the high standards that the Town has established since its
incorporation. The goals and policies of this element will ensure that these standards are maintained
and that new development addresses the needs and interests of new as well as existing residents and
the Town government.
GROWING SMARTER/PLUS E U/ EMENTS
According to the State's Growing Smarter/Plus statutes, the Cost of Development Element must do
the following:
■ Identifies policies and strategies to require development to pay its fair share toward the cost
of additional public service needs generated by new development, with appropriate
exceptions when in the public interest. This element shall include:
• A component that identifies various mechanisms that are allowed by law and that can be
used to fund and finance additional public services necessary to serve the development,
including bonding, special taxing districts, development fees, in lieu fees, facility construction,
dedications and service privatization.
• A component that identifies policies to ensure that any mechanisms that are adopted by the
municipality under this element result in a beneficial use to the development, bear a
reasonable relationship to the burden imposed on the municipality to provide additional
necessary public services to the development and otherwise are imposed according to law.
Essentially, the Cost of Development is intended to ensure that new development pays for the public
infrastructure and services that are required to serve that development. As with other Growing
Smarter/Plus elements, this requirement is targeted primarily at high growth areas, with the objective
of avoiding public subsidies of private development.
KEY POLICY ISSUES
COMPLIANCE WITH GROWING SMARTER/PLUS
The Cost of Development Element is new to the Town of Oro Valley. While the Town has enacted
measures to ensure that new development is paying for its fair share of the costs associated with new
development, it has not formally adopted broad policy, either in the General Plan or elsewhere. The
Cost of Development Element is the Town's opportunity to do so.
GOALS AND -POLICIES
FAIR SHARE ALLOCATION OF COSTS
4.1 To ensure that new development pays its fair share of the additional costs of extending or
improving public service facilities and systems and that these costs do not financially
burden existing residents.
4.1.1 The long-term fiscal impacts, both cost and revenue generation, to the Town and its
taxpayers relating to proposed new developments shall be evaluated as a criterion in the
development review process.
39 Cost of Development
Policy Document Oro Valley General Plan
Adopted May 29,2003 (revised)
4.1.2 Continue to assess the long-term costs and benefits of annexation versus short-term gains.
4.1.3 Continue to encourage annexation of county islands and peninsulas to facilitate infrastructure
expansion and improve operational efficiencies of municipal services, and standardize
design criteria. The Town reasonably wishes to be satisfied that sufficient demand exists
before authorizin= a hi'her land use intensi than resent zonin• ermits.
4.1.4 The Town shall require new development to pay its fair share towards the cost of additional
public facility and service needs generated by new development, with appropriate
exceptions when in the public interest, and shall continue to review and set development
fees to meet the fair share requirement. The fair share review will recognize the fiscal
benefits of the development as well as the costs.
4.1.5 The Town shall require new development to construct or provide funds towards the
construction of regional facilities necessary to serve the development, meeting the twin tests
of rational nexus and rough proportionality.
4.1.6 In areas where infrastructure is not programmed, require the installation of on-site and off-
site facilities to serve the ultimate buildout of the area.
4.1.7 Contribute towards the development of infrastructure facilities in areas where infrastructure is
not adjacent, but reasonably available, programmed, and funded.
4.1.8 In unincorporated areas within the Planning Area, work with Pima County to ensure that new
development contributes to the construction of public facilities at the Town's service level
standards.
4.1.9 Permit the reduction of required facilities, payments, or fees in designated infill incentive
areas or other areas in accordance with the Arizona State Law and in the public interest.
FUNDING MECHANISMS
4.2 To employ the most efficient and equitable funding mechanisms to provideP ublic
facilities and services to new development and to upgrade existing facilities and services.
4.2.1 Continue to employ development fees as a mechanism to ensure that new development
contributes its fair share toward the cost of new facilities and services needed to serve the
new development. The Town shall ensure that its development fees meet the rational nexus
and proportionality tests.
4.2.2 Continue to use bonding as a funding source for the construction of public facilities to serve
new and existing development.
4.2.3 Consider the use of special districts for the replacement/upgrading of public facilities in areas
of existing development.
4.2.4 Consider the use of privatization, public-private partnerships, and jurisdictional
revenue/facilities sharing, where such funding mechanisms can be shown to result in lower
capital and operating expenditures at the same or better level of service.
4.2.5 Explore the use of repayment agreements and financial participation in the construction of
facilities by developers that are larger than needed by a new development or that extend
beyond a new development.
4.2.6 The Town shall periodically undertake comprehensive studies to evaluate the efficiency,
Y
equity, and legality of existing and potential funding mechanisms for the provision ofp ublic
Cost of Development 40
Oro Valley General Plan Policy Document
Adopted May 29, 2003 (revised)
services to new and existing development. Based on the findings of this evaluation, the
Town shall update existing funding mechanisms to reflect the cost of providing public
services to new development.
SERVICE AND FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
4.3 To ensure that the Town has sufficient information to effectively plan for, develop, and
implement funding mechanisms to support the development of infrastructure and services
to serve new and existing development.
4.3.1 Undertake an evaluation of current levels of service (LOS) for public services provided to
Town residents and businesses. Based on this evaluation, identify indicators to periodically
measure the quality of services provided. These periodic measurements will provide the
basis for establishing budgetary priorities for Town facilities and services and adjusting
financing mechanisms, as appropriate. Update the LOS evaluation study at regular intervals
(e.g., every three to five years).
4.3.2 Prepare and regularly update a fiscal impact model to determine the cost of new
development and annexations on public infrastructure, facilities, and services. Utilize the
fiscal impact model to determine and regularly update the level of funding mechanisms used
to assess new development.
4.3.3 Annually prepare concise, easy-to-understand summaries in text, tabular and/or graphic form
of the annual Budget Plan, Capital Improvement Program, cost of public services studies,
level of service studies, funding mechanism studies, and related studies. Annually make
these summaries available to Town staff, elected and appointed officials, residents,
businesses, and other interested parties.

5. TRANSPORTATION/CIRCULATION
STATEMENT
Oro Valley's transportation system, as well as the transportation system for the Planning Area as a
whole, must provide residents and visitors with safe, convenient and efficient mobility. With scarce
financial resources, the transportation system must also be cost-effective in order to successfully
compete for limited local, state and federal funds.
The current and future demand for movement of goods and services must be accommodated in a
manner that meets the needs of business while preserving Oro Valley's neighborhoods and the
Sonoran Desert environment. Reduction in traffic volumes and vehicle miles traveled is a desirable
goal both to reduce traffic congestion and maintain air quality standards. Development of a
transportation network that promotes alternative modes of transportation (e.g., transit, bicycling) and
trip reduction programs (e.g., telecommuting, compressed work weeks and ridesharing), and the
adoption of a land-use policy that links trip origins to nearby destinations are proven methodologies
which can achieve this goal.
GROWING SMARTER/PLUS REQUIREMENTS
The State's Growing Smarter/Plus statutes include the following direction concerning the content of
the Circulation Element for communities with fewer than 50,000 residents.
• General location and extent of existing and proposed freeways, arterial and collector streets,
bicycle routes and any other modes of transportation as may be appropriate, all correlated
with the Land Use Element of the General Plan.
The Growing Smarter/Plus statutes also describe requirements for a bicycling element, but only as a
mandate for communities with more than 50,000 residents. These requirements, which are optional
for smaller communities such as Oro Valley, are as follows:
® Consists of proposed bicycle facilities such as bicycle routes, bicycle parking areas and
designated bicycle street crossing areas.
Together, these requirements are intended to provide guidance concerning the development of all
aspects of the Town's transportation system. The most prominent aspect of the Circulation Element,
however, relates to the roadway network and the Town's plans and standards for improvement of the
network. These plans and standards outline the Town's strategy for providing mobility for its residents
and efficiently moving traffic through and within the Town.
KEY POLICY ISSUES
Through the course of the community outreach program conducted for the General Plan Update, a
wide variety of transportation issues were brought to the attention of the Town. Following are
summaries of these issues.
SAFETY AND DRAINAGE IMPROVEMENTS
Some of the major roadways in the Planning Area do not meet the current Town standards. As a
result, some may be unsafe and/or subject to drainage problems. Problem areas need to be
identified and prioritized so that improvements can be constructed.
0
43 Transportation/Circulation
Policy Document Oro Valley General Plan
Adopted May 29, 2003 (revised)
REGIONAL ROADWAY FUNDING
Funding for regional street and road improvements, which is planned through the Pima Association
of Governments (PAG), is limited and expected to be under funded, resultingin uncertainties as to
the cost-efficiency
priority and of required street and roadway system improvements.
DEPENDENCY ON AUTOMOBILE
The near exclusive dependency upon automobiles for transportation in Oro Valley conflicts with
some expressed community interests quality,preservation of the environment, air ualitY, and
neighborhood quality) and creates congestion. Alternative modes of transportation need to be
identified so that some of the expressed community interests can be achieved. One option might be
P g
the use of neighborhood electric vehicles for local trips provided an appropriate travel network can
be created within the limitations of State law.
ROADWAY DESIGN CAPACITY/EFFICIENCY
Good planning involves roadways to be built to anticipate future growth, not reacting after the
congestion has occurred. When growth exceeds roadway network capacity, congestion and
increased travel times result. However, overbuilding roadway capacity is expensive and could
discourage use of alternative modes. It could also require that more space be dedicated to roadways.
CUT-THROUGH TRAFFIC/NEIGHBORHOOD PRESERVATION
In order to preserve Oro Valley's neighborhoods, the street network must be g designed to discourage
traffic from using local streets as cut-through routes to avoid congestion on arterial streets. However,
neighborhood preservation measures should not result in unnecessary increases in travel distance.
Additionally, buffer areas must be provided through the platting process in order to shield
neighborhoods from the noise from principal and minor arterials.
NORTH-SOUTH ARTERIALS
North-south traffic, particularly, between Oro Valley and Tucson, will continue to increase as new
development occurs in Oro Valley. Oracle Road does not have P tY ca enough capacity to handle the
anticipated future traffic interaction, and 1-10 is too far west to provide a convenient alternative, so
identification of alternative north-south routes and public transit will be necessary to avoid severe
congestion problems.
Oracle Road: Traffic projections for Oracle Road, a State-maintained road, show traffic
volumes are so high that the road will require upgrading to efficiently accommodate the
increasing demand. This would affect access to the commercial and employment
development
existing and projected along Oracle Road. It could also be inconsistent with
neighborhood and environmental goals. These improvements present a financial and
implementation challenge to the region.
First Avenue: First Avenue is projected to be the second most heavily traveled roadway
within Oro Valley (behind Oracle Road). While the roadway capacity has been enhanced,
additional signalization may be necessary to accommodate increased volumes, articular)
P Y
westbound turns. Future improvements will be addressed through a Department of Public
Works project to provide for the necessary improvements to upgrade this road.
Transportation/Circulation 44
Oro Valley General Plan Policy Document
Adopted May 29, 2003 (revised)
La Cholla Boulevard: This road is planned for eventual connection with 1-10. As a result, it is
an important future roadway.
La Canada Drive: This is a congested two-lane roadway from the Canada del Oro Wash to
the southern edge of the Planning Area. (North of Tangerine an extension to Moore Road is
planned.) This congestion is exacerbated by school crossing zones that are active during peak
travel periods. Pima County funds allocated to widen this roadway have been reallocated, so
improvement of this road will occur at a later date, or if the Town annexes the area and
reconstructs the road.
EAST-WEST ARTERIALS
While recent traffic studies conducted on the behalf of the Town have shown that the predominant
travel movement is in a north-south direction, east-west corridors also have need for capacity
improvements.
Tangerine Road: Tangerine Road connects Oracle Road to 1-10. Four miles of the roadway
(from Shannon Road to First Avenue) are maintained by Oro Valley. Most of the drainage
along this road is carried through dip sections. At several locations, safe stopping sight
distance is not adequate for the posted speed of 45 miles per hour. The Town has scheduled
safety and capacity improvements to Tangerine Road to occur through 2005.
ina Road: Outside of the Oro Valley town limits, yet within the study area, this roadway is
experiencing congestion. Pima County and Marana are responsible for maintenance of this
road and have plans for future expansion.
Lambert Lane: This road may eventually connect 1-10 with Oracle Road via Pusch View
Lane. As a result, it is an important future roadway.
Moore Road: Future east-west extensions of this road from East Rancho Vistoso Boulevard to
La Cholla Boulevard will provide additional access to major north-south arterials.

Adopted May 29,2003 (revised)
6. PUBLIC FACILITIES, SERVICES, RNLI SAFETY
STATEMENT
The purpose of the Public Facilities, Services and Safety Element is to provide the Town of Oro Valley
with development oversight strategies that ensure orderly, rational development of infrastructure to
support projected growth and to address the safety needs of its resident. The incorporation of the
Town of Oro Valley was the result of residents' desire to protect their public welfare and safety with
service management scaled to the community's character and resources. In short, the residents of Oro
Valley recognized a need to preserve a lifestyle and established a mechanism to accomplish it. This
element is intended to discourage hazards, both environmental and man-made, and to promote
healthful, secure enjoyment of the Town and its natural surroundings.
GROWINGSMARTER/PLUS REQUIREMENTS
The Growing Smarter/Plus statutes include separate content requirements for Public Facilities and
Services elements and for Safety elements. They are, respectively, as follows:
• General plans for police, fire, emergency services, sewage, refuse disposal, drainage, local
utilities, rights-of-way, easements and facilities for them.
• Protection of the community from natural and man-made hazards including features
necessary for such protection as evacuation routes; peak load water supply requirements;
minimum road widths according to function; clearances around structures; and geologic
hazard mapping in areas of known geologic hazards. (Please note that water issues are
addressed in the Water Resources Element beginning onpag e 8170.)
While both of these requirements are mandated only for communities of 50,000 or more, the Town
has chosen to address them as optional elements.
KEY . E ISSUES
Through the course of the community outreach program conducted for the General Plan Update, a
wide variety of public services issues were brought to the attention of the Town. Following are
summaries of these issues.
TOWN SERVICES
As the Town grows, several program areas would also expand to meet the demand created by
growth. In the past, the provision of Town services has lagged behind the demand associated with
new development. For instance, demand for park facilities has exceeded existing capacity.
SCHOOLS
As the community grows, schools will need to be developed within the Planning Area. The Town of
Oro Valley does not have direct control over school facility development. Amphitheater School
District has the responsibility for public school facilities, however, the School Board's Authority and
the District's ability to build schools in a timely manner to avoid over crowding are limited by the
Arizona School Facilities Board and associated statutory law. Establishment of a stronger partnership
between the Town and Amphitheater School District is needed to help the district identify and
ensure dedication of school sites.
53 Public Facilities, Services, and Safety
Policy Document Oro Valley General Plan
Adopted May 29, 2003 (revised)
CRIME-FREE COMMUNITY
One of the key characteristics valued by the residents is the low crime rate. Maintenance of
community safety requires a high level of police service and partnerships (community policing).
FIRE PROTECTION AND EMERGENCY RESPONSE
Fire protection and emergency response services in the Planning Area are provided by the Golder
Ranch Fire District, Northwest Fire District, and Rural Metro Fire Department. Some interest has
been expressed for the Town to assume responsibility for these services. There is strong interest in the
Town ensuring that a high standard of response is available at equitable rates uniformly throughout
Oro Valley.
FACILITY PLANNING
The community's long-range planning must address the need for providing more facilities strategically
located throughout the Planning Area to adequately respond in a timely manner to emergency calls.
The Town Hall site is geographically located for consideration as a central public safety response
center. More dispersed satellite response units should continue to be considered to provide a
presence close to residential and employment concentrations.
FACILITY MAINTENANCE
Maintenance of Town facilities will become an increasing financial burden to the Town as the Town
accepts more facilities, as existing facilities age, and as more facilities are built.
LIBRARY FUNDING
The Town is providing library services to Town residents and has completed a portion of the new
library, but funds for completing the facility and ongoing operations and maintenance are limited.
Also refer to policies in Arts and Culture, particularly Policy 9.1.89.1.8.
AS AND POLICIES
GENERAL PUBLIC FACILITIES AND SERVICES
6.1 To ensure that adequate public facilities and services are provided when needed.

7. HOUSING
STATEMENT
Oro Valley is recognized as a highly desirable place to live. The Housing Elementresents strategies to
ensure p g
e that housing opportunities are provided within high quality neighborhoods that are safe and
well-planned. Oro Valley is defined by its strong neighborhoods and quality housing development
which meet the needs of current and future residents. Efforts should continue to be made top rovide a
mix of housing at various densities and price ranges to allow people of all ages to enjoy the splendor of
Oro Valley.
GROWING SMARTER/PLUS REQUIREMENTS
The Growing Smarter/Plus statutes include requirements for Housing elements. They are as follows:
▪ Standards and programs for the elimination of substandard dwelling conditions, for the
improvement of housing quality, variety and affordability and for provision of adequate sites
for housing.
• Contains an identification and analysis of existing and forecasted housing needs.
■ Designed to make equal provision for the housing needs of all segments of the community
regardless of race, color, creed or economic level.
While these requirements are mandated only for communities of 50,000 or more, the Town has
chosen to address them as optional elements.
KEY POL. ISSUES
NEIGHBORHOOD QUALITY
Oro Valley is a relatively new community with a majority of its housing stock less than tenY ears old.
However, over the next twenty years the housing stock and neighborhoods will begin to show age. If
Oro Valley is to continue to be recognized for its strong quality neighborhoods, the Town must
develop programs aimed at maintaining strong neighborhoods and preserving housing qt-Y uali .
RANGE OF HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES
Residents who wish to remain in Oro Valley may be forced out by a lack of housing opportunities.
Over a person's lifetime, a broad range of housing types will be required, ranging from entry-level
rental and ownership units to assisted living facilities. In addition, the Town is expanding
P g
opportunities for professional employment within the Town. Younger and empty-nester professionals
tend to look for rental housing, at least temporarily, and for smaller housingproducts on a permanent
basis.

8. PARKS AND ECREAT N
STATEMENT
The Parks and Recreation Element is intended to protect and enhance the resort/residential image the
Town wishes to maintain. Recognizing that it is the setting rather than structures that contributes most
to Oro Valley's character, spatial relationships derived from community design principles underscore
the importance of natural and recreational open areas in framing the community's character. Likewise,
the appeal of both the area's outdoor activities and its scenic views are fundamental reasons for
residents'and tourists'enjoyment of the area.
GROWING SMARTER/PLUS..US E U REMENTS
The Growing Smarter/Plus statutes include requirements for Parks and Recreation elements. They are
as follows:
• Outlines a comprehensive system of areas and public sites for recreation, including the
following and, if practicable, their locations and proposed development: natural reservations;
parks; parkways and scenic drives; beaches; playgrounds and playfields; open space; bicycle
routes; and other recreation areas.
While these requirements are mandated only for communities of 50,000 or more, the Town has
chosen to address them within this optional element.
This element addresses issues similar to those addressed in the Open Space and Natural Resources
Conservation Element. Generally, this element addresses active parks recreation opportunities, while
the Open Space and Natural Resources Conservation Element focuses on passive recreation and
conservation.
KEY POLIO` ISSUES
Through the course of the community outreach program conducted for the General Plan Update, a
wide variety of issues related to parks, recreation and trails were brought to the attention of the
Town. Following are discussions of the most frequently raised issues.
PARKS AND RECREATION FACILITIES AND ACTIVITIES
Oro Valley's population is growing and the demographics are changing, with various age families
moving into the community. Existing parks and recreational amenities within the Town of Oro Valley
do not currently meet the needs of its residents. The following facilities have been mentioned as
concerns:
■ Recreation centers,
• Neighborhood parks,
■ Mini parks,
• Pet parks,
▪ Playing fields(soccer, baseball, and basketball),
▪ Picnic areas,
® Swimming pools,
• Facilities for children,
▪ Mandatory parks in new housing developments,
61 Parks and Recreation
Policy Document Oro Valley General Plan
Adopted May 29,2003 (revised)
■ Recreational and fitness trail facilities in open or park space, and
■ Possibly a public golf course.
Activities mentioned include the following:
■ General recreation programs,
■ Educational training programs, physical development skills, health, youth activities, aquatic
activities (swim team, classes and exercise). The Naranja Town site was cited as appropriate
for recreational uses. Public art in the parks was mentioned. Also refer to policies in Arts and
Culture, particularly Policy 9.1.89.1.8.
SCHOOLS AND COMMUNITY RECREATION
Cooperative school and community recreation programs are needed. Given scarce resources for
both the Town and the school district, a discussion needs to occur on sharing operational expenses
associated with each entities use of the others properties.
SMALL, DISPERSED SYSTEM OF RECREATION AREAS
The Town's requirements for recreation areas (one acre for every 85 housing units) provides for many
small private recreation areas that may serve the needs of individual communities, but are not open
to the general public. There are problems with this approach, including the following: some are too
small, providing only open space, with limited recreation opportunities; most are dispersed and
designed to be used primarily by neighborhood residents; Homeowner Associations (HOAs) may
choose not to pay for their upkeep; they may not tie into the riparian areas and other parts of the
Town's natural open space system; and developers/HOAs may resist tying these into the Town's trail
system.
PARKS AND OPEN SPACE FUNDING
There is no dedicated funding mechanism for the purchase of land for parks or open space, for the
improvement of recreation areas, or for the maintenance of any of these areas. The Town recognizes
the need to establish a long-term local funding source for future park development.
NARANJA TOWN SITE
When fully developed, the Town Site will play a central role in the Town's overall parks, recreation,
and arts programming. To be successful, however, the Town Site will need to be strategically tied to
the community and other facilities through a network of convenient access ways. Also, the uses that
are ultimately located at the Town Site should complement other Town facilities and services, and
vice versa.
CATALINA STATE PARK
Catalina State Park provides essential trail linkages for Oro Valley. Hikers, bikers, and equestrians
alike enjoy many destinations within Catalina State Park. Additionally, the Park is used as an access
point into Coronado National Forest. These important linkages are emphasized in the Town's trail
plan, which also connects into the Eastern Pima County Trails Master Plan. The Town and the Park
share many common interests and there are many opportunities for cooperative projects between
the Town and Park, including docent programs, art projects and classes, interpretive programs. These
opportunities underscore the importance of continued cooperation between the Town and the Park.

Oro Valley General Plan Policy Document
Adopted May 29, 2003 (revised)
GOALS AND POLICIES
GENERAL
8.1 To develop an open space system within the Town of Oro Valley that has as integral
components, developed parks, natural open space areas, and connecting trails.
8.1.1 The Town shall promote a community-wide open space system that includes developed

1 e ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND HISTORIC RESOURCES
STATEMENT
Oro Valley is a town of breathtaking natural beauty and an area that possesses archaeological
resources that date from approximately 11,500 years ago to historic times. It is a community that takes
seriously its role as stewards for the area's rich historic resources. Oro Valley celebrates the richness
that these resources bring to residents and visitors. The purpose of the Archaeological and Historic
Resources Element is to acknowledge that the area's past and cultural resources are significant and
help shape the Town's future.
GROWING SMARTER/PLUS REQUIREMENTS
UIREMENTS
The State's Growing Smarter/Plus statutes do not include any requirements for addressing
archaeological or historic within general plans, for communities of any size.
KEY POLICY ISSUES
ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND HISTORICAL RESOURCE PROTECTION
The Town of Oro Valley has a long and rich heritage. Prehistoric people commonly used areas now
included in the Town and the Hohokam lived in the area for nearly 1,000 years, mainly near the
major drainages. Archaeological sites range from large villages to small, temporary gathering or food
preparation sites. In historic times Apaches and Pimas traversed much of the area. Cattle ranching
became a major use at the beginning of the twentieth century.
The Town is still dependent on outside resources and expertise to determine the level of protection
of the archaeological and historical resources that are found throughout the Planning Area. In the
past the Town depended on the review and requirements of the State Historic Preservation Office
(SHPO) to determine the disposition of these sites in the face of development. In the late 1990s, the
Town passed an ordinance to require Town, as well as SHPO, acceptance of mitigation/preservation
plans. With this tool and outside expertise, the Town needs to place more emphasis on preservation
of the remaining sites.
INTERPRETIVE ELEMENTS
With increased preservation comes an opportunity for creating interpretive elements at the preserved
sites to educate the public and improve our appreciation of the area's history.
HOUSI NG ARCHAEOLOGICAL ACTIVITIES
There are no facilities within the Town to exhibit artifacts in order to educate the public about the
rich historic resources of the area.
GOALS AND POLICIES
CULTURAL AND HISTORIC RESOURCE PROTECTION
10.1 To preserve the unique archaeological, cultural, and historic resources within Oro Valley
to the degree not already regulated by the State of Arizona.

69 Archaeological and Cultural Resources
Policy Document Oro Valley General Plan
Adopted May 29,2003 (revised)
10.1.1 The Town shall continue to require the preparation of cultural resources assessments,
including information about both prehistoric and historic uses, by a qualified archaeologist
or historian for all new private and public development projects.
10.1.2 Use the standards and criteria established by the National Register of Historic Places, as
amended, to identify significant cultural resources, including people, events, and activities,
in Oro Valley, specifically identify Steam Pump Ranch and Honey Bee Village
10.1.3 The Town shall continue to consider the potential effect of development projects on
significant prehistoric and historic resources during the planning and design processes.
Cultural resources determined to be significant will be preserved in place if possible, and if
not, appropriate data recovery and documentation will be prepared in consultation with the
Arizona State Historic Preservation Office. Avoidance of significant sites is preferred over
data recovery and documentation.
10.1.4 The Town shall continue to ensure protection and appropriate handling of cultural resources
discovered during development site preparation and construction. If cultural resources are
discovered during development, work shall cease until a qualified archaeologist inspects the
g
site and materials and makes recommendations regarding treatment. If human remains are
inadvertently discovered the Town shall contact related tribes or communities who may
have ancestral ties to the remains.
10.1.5 Actively seek grants and other funding mechanisms to provide for the protection and
preservation of cultural resources or resources of value to local culture. The Town shall also
investigate use of these funds to provide for interpretive locations and facilities.
10.1.6Through partnerships and collaborative efforts, identify appropriate strategies top rotect
archaeological and cultural resources.
EDUCATING AND ENRICHING THE COMMUNITY
10.2 To maximize interpretive opportunities associated with cultural resources as a means of
providing important insight into the heritage of the community.
10.2.1 Require that public and private development project sites containing significant cultural
resources be assessed for potential inclusion of an interpretive element into project design.
10.2.2 Consider the potential for incorporating interpretive elements related to cultural resource
sites during planning for public parks, trails, and other public use areas.
10.2.3 Actively initiate and pursue cooperative opportunities with other jurisdictions and
organizations (e.g., Catalina State Park, Pima County) with regard to use of sites for
education and historic interpretation.
10.2.4 During the planning process for interpretive elements, develop an appropriate and consistent
theme for these elements throughout the Town (e.g., common graphic identity, uniform
signage).
10.3 To provide a place to exhibit cultural resources.
10.3.1 As the Town acquires or develops facilities, it should look for opportunities to exhibit artifacts
to educate the public. (See also Policy 6.3.2.)

11. OPEN SPACE AND NATURAL E ESOP CES CONSERVATION
STATEMENT
Oro Valley's exceptional environmental resources have shaped the Town's character. The conservation
of natural open space, biological resources, visual resources, and natural resources is of significant
public interest to the residents of Oro Valley and a high priority among Oro Valley's planning
objectives. In particular, the Town values lands with the following characteristics:
■ Provide, or affect, public resources such as aquifer recharge areas
■ Exemplify unique, ecologically sensitive, wildlife and vegetative habitat
® Define the identity of the community such as cultural/historic resources
• Shape the scenic quality of life such as viewsheds
• Create unsuitable and/or hazardous conditions for development due to the slope, soil, or
geological, topographical, soil, or similar features.
The Open Space and Natural Resources Conservation Element is intended to identify'and address the
Town's environmental resources in a comprehensive manner. The protection, restoration, and
maintenance of environmental resources require an integrated approach.
GROWNG SMARTER/PLUS REQ E EN
The Open Space and Natural Resources Element addresses the State's Growing Smarter/Plus
requirements for open space and elements. Following are brief descriptions of the statutory
requirements for these elements and an explanation of their implications for Oro Valley.
The Growing Smarter/Plus statutes require that municipalities with 10,000 or more residents include
an Open Space Element addressing the following items:
■ A comprehensive inventory of open space areas, recreational resources and designations of
access points to open space areas and resources. (See Background Report.)
• An analysis of forecasted needs, policies for managing and protecting open space areas and
resources and implementation strategies to acquire additional open space areas and further
establish recreational resources. (See Background Report.)
• Policies and implementation strategies designed to promote a regional system of integrated
open space and recreational resources and a consideration of any existing regional open
space plans.
These statutory requirements focus on a variety of descriptive, analytical, and prescriptive issues that
are intended to ensure that the Town establishes a framework for protection and preservation of the
natural qualities that Oro Valley residents value so much. The first requirement calls for a descriptive
inventory of these natural qualities, focusing on large-scale open space areas, particularly those that
are set aside for recreational purposes.
The second requirement calls for a combination of analytical and prescriptive content that focuses on
understanding and responding to the open space needs of the community. As with much of the
Growing Smarter/Plus legislation, the intent of this requirement is to ensure that growing
communities plan for additional open space.
71 Open Space and Natural Resources Conservation
Policy Document Oro Valley General Plan
Adopted May 29,2003 (revised)
The third requirement in the above list focuses on ensuring that local open space assets are
considered in light of their relationship to the regional system or network of resources.
In addition, this element addresses Growing Smarter/Plus' requirements for a conservation element,
which are optional for communities of fewer than 50,000 residents. These requirements are as
follows:
■ Addresses the conservation, development and utilization of natural resources, including
forests, soils, rivers and other waters, harbors, fisheries, wildlife, minerals and other natural
resources.
■ May also cover: The reclamation of land; flood control; prevention and control of the
pollution of streams and other waters; regulation of the use of land in stream channels and
other areas required for the accomplishment of the conservation plan; prevention, control
and correction of the erosion of soils, beaches and shores; and protection of watersheds.
KEY POLICY ISSUES
OPEN SPACE TOOLS
The Town needs to develop a wide range of planning tools that can be used to acquire, protect, and
enhance those lands, such as environmentally sensitive lands, that help define the community's
character.
FUNDING FOR ACQUISITION OF OPEN SPACE LANDS
The Town has no specific funding mechanism for the acquisition and management of natural open
space lands. Without timely establishment of such a mechanism, options for establishing a connected
system of natural open space will be limited. To achieve the broad goal of preserving sensitive lands,
a method of financing to secure particularly valuable lands must be established and utilized to bolster
a comprehensive approach. Financing methods include targeted development fees, Town funds,
sales taxes, or highly focused bond measures to meet specific ESL goals and objectives. The latter
two must be implemented by a vote of the Town's residents.
CONNECTIVITY BETWEEN NATURAL OPEN SPACE AREAS AND RECREATIONAL AREAS
There is presently not a fully developed interconnected natural open space system within Oro Valley,
in part because there are some barriers to the development of such a system (e.g., roads, fencing
utilities, culverts, bridges, disturbed vegetation, overall infrastructure). Natural open space needs to
be established with consideration given to establishing connections with other open space and
recreational areas within the Town and adjacent lands. Creation of new natural open space resources
and connectivity with existing areas, both prior to and during the process of development, is critical.
LOSS, DEGRADATION,AND FRAGMENTATION OF BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES
Development in Oro Valley which does not consider the quantity and quality of natural resources
can directly affect and result in the loss, degradation, and fragmentation of native habitats, further
reducing the ecological value of these areas. This development has resulted in impacts on biological
resources such as constraints on wildlife movement, impacts on wildlife from urban lighting, and
erosion into riparian corridors. The need for an increased level of management is accentuated by
the Town's rapid pace of growth, which has been sustained since the early 1980s. Much of the
Town's land has been committed for development. The economic impact of environmentally
sensitive land preservation is extremely significant The beauty of the Town's environmental
Open Space and Natural Resources Conservation 72
Oro Valley General Plan Policy Document
Adopted May 29,2003 (revised)
resources and attractiveness of the resort atmosphere are primary factors for the continued influx of
residents, small businesses, and corporations.
RESTORATION OF DEGRADED HABITAT
Some areas within the Town once contained high value habitats that have subsequently become
degraded for a number of different reasons related to human activities within the Town. These areas
may provide excellent opportunities for environmental restoration.
PLANTS AND ANIMALS
Biotic communities require similar protection and enhancement. Inventories of plant and animal
communities can be compared with the more desirable development locations. Points of conflict will
yield opportunities for the development community and Town government to establish fauna and
flora protection strategies and also encourage desirable development schemes.
INCREASES IN LIGHT AND GLARE
Development will add to the amount of light and glare within the community and result in loss of
nighttime sky visibility. Oro Valley cooperates with the International Dark-Skies Association (IDA)
which seeks to stop the adverse environmental impact on dark skies by building awareness of the
problem of light pollution and of the solutions, and to educate everyone about the value and
effectiveness of quality nighttime lighting.
VISUAL CHARACTER OF THE COMMUNITY
Maintaining and enhancing the existing visual character of the community has been identified as a
priority interest. A specific area of concern is development on hilltops, ridges, and slopes, which are
highly visible from many areas in the community.
Also of concern is identification of important scenic vistas and views and protective techniques such
as use restrictions and easements.
BUILT ENVIRONMENT
As the Town develops, the built environment begins to dominate views. Standards are necessary to
ensure that development blends with the natural environment. Lighting and signage standards
directed at improving the existing visual environment provide additional means of maintaining and
enhancing the Town's image. Standards and density restrictions are needed to keep development
from creating undesirable views, often referred to as a "sea of rooftops."
SCENIC CORRIDORS
Many roadways in the community provide views of scenic vistas, washes, and native vegetation. The
open feeling along some of these roadways also adds to the character of the community.
AIR QUALITY
Good air quality has been recognized by Town residents as an essential component of Oro Valley's
quality of life. Air pollution reduces visibility and compromises views of surrounding mountain
ranges, as well as increases health risks. Although not totally within the Town's control, air pollution
can be reduced through Town initiatives.

Adopted May 29,2003 (revised)
GOALS AND POLICIES
NATURAL OPEN SPACE
11.1 To protect the environmentally sensitive open space areas within the Planning Area.
11.1.1The Town shall institute a program for the acquisition, management, and maintenance of
public natural open space. This program may include a cost-benefit analysis to determine
natural open space acquisition priorities.
11.1.2 The program in Policy 11.1.111.1.1 shall identify and provide recommendations to the Town
Council for the application of a range of planning and funding tools to acquire, enhance,
manage, maintain, or otherwise protect environmentally sensitive lands and other desirable
natural open space lands such as those identified as SRA in this plan.
11.1.3 Work with authorized representatives of approved Planned Area Developments(PADs)to
minimize impacts on environmentally sensitive lands, including amendments of PADs, while
allowing for development in accordance with the spirit of existing approvals.
11.1.4 Require new development proposals, through the rezoning process, adjacent to or containing
riparian areas or wildlife and plant habitat to include provisions to link these systems to other
nearby riparian areas, habitats, existing or planned trails, and regional natural open space
areas(e.g., Tortolita Mountain Park, Catalina State Park, and Coronado National Forest).
11.1.5 Ensure that recreational uses on areas with essential or key habitats are designed to protect
these resources. (See also Policy 8.1.1844.)
11.1.6 Include interpretive elements with trails developed within natural environments. These
elements should be designed to provide educational information on the environment and
the protection of resources in an unobtrusive manner.
11.1.7 Prepare, adopt, and periodically update an Natural Open Space Management Plan to
determine the appropriate level of use and protection of the environmentally sensitive open
space areas within and surrounding the Town. This should include preparation of an
inventory of these areas and the natural resources they support. (See also Policies
11.5.111.5.1, 11.5.211.5.2, and 11.5.311.5.3.)
11.1.8The Town shall use natural open space preservation as one criterion in considering land use
rezoning proposals. Developments shall utilize natural open space to comply with
requirements for landscaped areas and buffer areas, whenever feasible.
11.1.9The Town shall integrate open space planning with ongoing land use planning and
community development efforts.
11.1.10 Encourage natural open space connection to and the expansion of Tortolita Mountain Park
and Catalina State Park.
11.1.11 Protection techniques, such as clustering, transfer of development rights, and density
bonuses, which may increase the number of units in an area shall include standards to
ensure that other environmentally sensitive areas and existing neighborhoods are not
adversely affected. Where clustering is used to set aside areas as natural open space, the
areas shall be dedicated to the Town, County, trust, or appropriate entity so-as-tethat will
guarantee preservation in perpetuity.

Oro Valley General Plan Policy Document
Adopted May 29,2003 (revised)
11.1.12 To achieve natural open space goals, emphasis needs to be focused upon avoiding pre-
annexation agreements with commitments that compromise community values.
HABITAT PROTECTION
11.2 To protect native biological habitats and their associated plant and wildlife species
throughout the Town of Oro Valley and create/restore habitats where feasible in
development design.
11.2.1 Ensure that development will provide for coordinated and enhanced protection of key
habitat areas. "Key habitat" and "essential habitat" are provided, respectively, in Policy
11.2.211.2.2 and Policy 11.2.311.2.3.
11.2.2 Define key habitat areas as those that meet the following criteria:
■ significant saguaro stands;
® significant ironwood stands; and,
■ significant rock outcrops.
Note: The term "significant" as it relates to each of these will be defined in ordinance.
11.2.3 Define essential habitat areas as those that meet one of the following criteria:
• areas occupied by special-status species as defined by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service or Arizona Game and Fish;
® riparian habitat types, defined as low xeroriparian, moderate xeroriparian, high
xeroriparian, hydroriparian, mesoriparian (including mesquite bosque and degraded
mesquite bosque); and
® buffer areas around these areas.
11.2.4 Within essential habitats, permit only the following uses:
® education and research;
• fish, wildlife and plant management activities;
® trails, scenic overlooks, and other passive recreation;
• necessary water supply projects which can be accomplished with minimal
environmental damage;
® roadway crossings, drainage facilities, and other infrastructure which have been
designed to minimize environmental damage; and,
a environmental restoration/enhancement activities.
These uses shall be designed to minimize impacts on environmentally sensitive resources. An
exception to this is for lands covered under a habitat conservation plan or similar agreement
that has been adopted and approved by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and/or Arizona
Game and Fish. Development in these areas can proceed based on the agreement and
applicable provisions of the Town's General Plan and zoning ordinance.
11.2.5 Maintain a current and accurate database of biological resources, including maps that identify
the locations of specific habitats(as defined in this element), and lists of special-status
species, to mandate environmentally compatible development. Upon annexation of any
area to the Town, the Town shall update the database for the annexation area.
11.2.6 On sites that have reasonably high potential to contain essential or key habitats, or contain or
support special-status species, the Town shall require the project applicant to have the site
75 Open Space and Natural Resources Conservation
Policy Document Oro Valley General Plan
Adopted May 29,2003 (revised)
surveyed by a Town-qualified biologist as part of the application process. In addition, the
Town will maintain a list of qualified biologists experienced in Sonoran Desert ecosystems
that can be used to prepare these studies. The results of the survey will be used during the
development review and approval process in evaluating the merits of the project.
11.2.7 Prepare, adopt, and implement an Environmentally Sensitive Lands Ordinance (ESLO)
containing standards for protecting sensitive resources and provisions for requiring
innovative site planning and design practices that would protect sensitive resources. (See
also Policy 11.4.3.)
11.2.8 Work as an equal partner with federal, state, and county agencies and the public in the
development and implementation of the Sonoran Desert Conservation Plan.
11.2.9 Require project designs that:
• place development in areas not defined as key habitat when possible;
▪ provide deed restrictions regarding treatment of identified habitats and natural open
space on private property;
• minimize adverse- impacts to these habitats;
• provide for connectivity between on- and off-site essential and key habitat areas; and,
• are designed to reduce overall habitat impacts.
11.2.10 Achieve fauna and flora protection through regulatory practices as well as through working
partnerships with developers. On-site water detention basins, clustering, land trusts, scenic
easements, and similar practices should become part of an ordinance to protect the plants
and animals and still achieve land development objectives.
11.2.11 Protect and enhance contiguous areas of key habitats rather than small, segmented
remainder parcels.
11.2.12 For new public or private development projects, require a buffer of adequate size to protect
the integrity of the essential habitat. Buffer size regulations will.be defined in the Town's
ESLO(see Policy 11.2.711.2.7), which will provide guidance on buffer sizes, based on site
characteristics, such as terrain, width of habitat, habitat condition, andso forth.-
11.2.13 Regulate development within buffer areas in the same way as the habitat areas the buffer is
protecting.
11.2.14 Inventory and actively pursue opportunities to restore degraded areas that contain remnants
of essential or key habitat areas as defined in this element.
11.2.15 Continue to maintain a plant palette for use in all landscape plans. This list shall use only
drought-tolerant vegetation. The list shall not include any non-native plant types that are
considered invasive, allergenic, or nuisance species. Only native plant species shall be
allowed in perimeter areas or areas adjacent to natural areas. (See also Policy
12.3.212.3.2.)
11.2.16 Require the protection of healthy native vegetation within a development. If on-site
"It
protection is not feasible, the Town shall encourage transplantation of healthy native
vegetation to approved sites within, or as a less preferable option, outside the project limits.
11.2.17 The Town shall continue to prohibit mass grading for all residential developments with lots
exceeding 15,000 square feet and strongly discourage it throughout the community. (See
also Policy 1.1.61-4-.-6.)

11.3.2 The Town shall continue to require all new development and improvements to existing
development, both public and private, to maintain and/or enhance the character and quality
of views from and along scenic corridors and public parks. The following measures will
contribute to achieving this objective:
■ preserve areas of natural open space (especially habitat areas) to provide visual relief;
■ provide large natural or naturally landscaped areas in rights-of-way along scenic
corridors;
• create design standards to minimize the impacts of parking lots;
• create a Town ordinance that requires vehicle loads to be covered and secured;
® work with utility providers to place utilities underground; and,
■ discourage visually intrusive structures.
11.3.3 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:
■ placing utilities underground
■ restricting light not needed for safety or identification

12. WATER RESOURCES
STATEMENT
The Town of Oro Valley recognizes the importance of water to maintain the natural qualities that
attract people to the area and sustain their existence. The Town also recognizes the importance of
ensuring that it doesn't compromise these qualities. The Water Resources Element presents goals and
policies that address water as both a natural asset and as an essential part of the public infrastructure.
GROWING SMARTER/PLUS REQUIREMENTS
The basic intent of the Growing Smarter/Plus requirements for the Water Resources Element is to
ensure that communities can assure that there will be enough water to support future development.
The required content is as follows:
■ Assessment of known legally and physically available surface water, groundwater and
reclaimed water supplies.
• The demand for water that will result from future growth, added to existing uses.
■ An analysis of how the demand for water that will result from future growth projected in the
general plan will be served by the currently available water supplies or a plan to obtain
additional necessary water supplies.
As with many other aspects of the Growing Smarter/Plus statutes, the Water Resources Element
requirements are geared toward growing communities.
KEY POLICY ISSUES
IMPACTS TO THE NATURAL DRAINAGE RECHARGE SYSTEM
The Town has been designated by the State of Arizona as having a 100-year assured water supply.
However, this does allow draw down of the aquifer to a depth of 1,000 feet below land surface
within that time. Thus development activities in Oro Valley may adversely impact the natural wash
system and continued regulation is needed. Cumulative, as well as site-by-site, impacts need to be
considered.
PROTECTION OF WELLHEADS
Wellheads for domestic water could be adversely affected by development activities occurring in
close proximity to well sites.
WATER CONSERVATION
Even though the Town has a 100-year assured water supply, water needs to be conserved to balance
continued growth, to enhance ecosystems that use surface water, and to protect ecosystems that
depend on groundwater. Cumulative, as well as site-by-site, impacts need to be considered.
SURFACE WATER AVAILABILITY/TRANSMISSION
While the Town has secured rights to surface water from the Central Arizona Project (CAP), the
infrastructure to transport the water to the Town's current and future users is not in place. If the
Town is to shift away from its sole reliance on groundwater for potable domestic supply, transmission
facilities must be planned and constructed. Currently, the nearest point of supply for CAP water is

near Tangerine Road and 1-10, which is several miles west and approximately 1,000 feet lower in
elevation.
USE OF RECLAIMED WATER FOR IRRIGATION
The Town has signed an agreement with the City of Tucson to secure rights to reclaimed water
(treated wastewater) generated within Oro Valley. This water may be used to replace potable
supplies for irrigation of turf areas in town (e.g., golf courses, parks). The Town must design and
construct a system for transmitting this water to these users.
GOALS AND POLICIES
WATER RESOURCE PRESERVATION
12.1 To protect and restore the natural qualities of creeks, washes, and groundwater basins
and recharge areas in Oro Valley to ensure public health and safety and the biological
productivity and diversity of these water courses.
12.1.1 Require that natural washes (defined as riparian areas and 100-year floodways) be kept free
from development that would adversely impact floodway capacity or characteristics,
natural/riparian areas, water quality, or natural groundwater recharge areas.
12.1.2 Implement the Town's Floodplain Management Ordinance and requirements of the Town's
Drainage Manual.
12.1.3The Town shall continue to evaluate all public and private development projects to
determine the effects of the projects on on-site and downstream drainage patterns and
associated ecological systems. Cumulative, as well as site-by-site, impacts shall be
considered.
12.1.4As appropriate, the Town shall continue to require detention facilities and/or velocity
reduction when necessary to maintain existing storm flows and velocities in natural drainage
systems.
12.1.5 Restrict the commercial extraction of gravel and other natural resources from washes and
flood-prone areas. (See also Policy 11.2.1411.2.18.)The Town shall ensure that flood
control facilities are designed to use "soft" channel structures. Facilities in natural washes
and floodways shall comply with Policy 12.1.112.1.1.
12.1.6The Town shall continue to enforce stormwater controls to prevent aquifer pollution and the
erosion or siltation of washes.
12.1.7The Town shall continue to protect wells from adverse conditions.
ALTERNATIVE WATER SUPPLIES
12.2 To utilize alternatives to groundwater to the maximum extent feasible.
12.2.1The Town shall contribute to and/or participate in partnership with other jurisdictions to build
a conveyance system to make use of CAP water and treated wastewater. A variety of
funding sources, including alternative water surcharges, development fees and user fees
should be used to defray the costs of developing alternative water source delivery systems.
12.2.2 The Town shall require the utilization of CAP water and reclaimed water for recharge and
irrigation of areas such as parks and golf courses to reduce the Town's dependence on
groundwater resources.
Water Resources 82
Oro Valley General Plan Policy Document
Adopted May 29,2003 (revised)
12.2.3 Encourage public and private developments to use alternative water sources.
12.2.4 Consider using CAP water and/or reclaimed water in the development of multi-use recharge
facilities (i.e., recharge, recreation, and habitat creation).
12.2.5 Monitor the use of CAP water to ensure that:
• Flows into natural washes do not exceed natural, average, historic levels
• Groundwater quality is maintained per standards established by Arizona Department
of Environmental Quality.
• The use of water does not encourage nuisances.
12.2.6The Town shall pursue a combination of reclaimed water and CAP water infrastructure to
minimize costs and maximize alternative source delivery.
12.2.7The Town shall meet a!! State and Federal regulations regarding the treatment, quality, and
monitoring required with the use of reclaimed water to assure that its use does not pose
health dangers.
WATER RESOURCE CONSERVATION
12.3 To ensure water conservation.
12.3.1 Promote water conservation through a variety of techniques such as:
• Designing detention basins for water harvesting as well as storm water control and
recreation
• Restoring disturbed areas and designing landscape to encourage infiltration and
reduce erosion
• Requiring the use of low-water-use landscape using xeriscape techniques
• Developing guidelines and standards for water harvesting in all forms of development
• Educating landowners on water harvesting techniques
• Providing incentives for conservation in water pricing structures
• Developing programs for water conservation in homes and businesses
• Tracking and reporting annually on the success of water conservation programs
• Identifying key recharge zones for preservation and protection from development
• Adopting turf water reclamation standards for larger turf areas such as golf courses,
schools, and ball fields
▪ Adopting building codes and providing incentives for water conserving plumbing such
as gray water systems
12.3.2 The Town shall continue to require the use of drought-tolerant vegetation (as specified in the
Town's adopted plant palette) and water efficient irrigation systems in the approval of new
developments. Native vegetation is preferred in landscaping projects and the use of turf is
discouraged. (See also Policy 11.2.15.)
12.3.3The Town shall require new development, expansion, and rehabilitation projects to include
water conservation measures.
12.3.4 Closely monitor the use of decorative water features such as fountains in commercial,
common areas, and multi-family developments to ensure that they recycle water and are
designed to reduce water losses.

13. ENVIRONMENTAL PLANNING
The Environmental Planning Element differs from the balance of this General Plan's elements in that its
focus is introspective. Its purpose, as described below, is to ensure that the goals and policies outlined
in this General Plan and the actions that will be taken in implementing the Genera! Plan do not
compromise the environmental resources of the community. In that respect, the Element is analytical
rather than prescriptive. Accordingly, the content of the Element focuses on evaluating the Town's
commitment to environmental quality.
GROWING SMARTER/PUS REQUIREMENTS
The Growing Smarter/Plus statutes require municipalities with 10,000 or more residents to include an
Environmental Planning Element addressing the following items:
■ Analysis, policies and strategies to address anticipated effects, if any, of general plan elements
on air quality, water quality and natural resources associated with proposed development
under the general plan.
■ The policies and strategies to be developed under this element shall be designed to have
community-wide applicability and shall not require the production of an additional
environmental impact statement or similar analysis beyond the requirements of state and
federal law.
These requirements are intended to force communities to consider the overall environmental
implications of their general plans, with a specific focus on air quality, water quality, and natural
resources. As suggested by the second bullet, the Environmental Planning Element is the means for
the community to assess these implications in lieu of preparing a separate environmental assessment
such as is required for federal projects under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) or those
required in other states, such as the California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA).
GENERAL PLAN POLICY APPROACH TO MITIGATING ENVRONMENTAL ISSUES
The Town's basic approach to addressing potential environmental issues associated with
development under the General Plan Land Use Map is to pre-empt potential problems through
application of the Plan's policies. While this "self-mitigating" approach relies on the policies of
virtually all elements of the Plan, it is particularly reliant on the Land Use, Open Space and Natural
Resources, and Water Resources Element. These three elements include policies that address the
three environmental issues that Growing Smarter/Plus identifies (i.e., air quality, water quality, and
natural resources). Adherence to these policies, coupled with the Town's ongoing implementation of
programs related to these three elements, ensures the protection of the Planning Area's valuable
environmental resources.
AIR QuAuTy
Various sections of this Plan articulate the Town's policy commitment to maintaining and improving
good air quality in Oro Valley, but the sections with the most influence on air quality issues are the
ILand Use Element's goals and policies related to Land Use and Air Quality (page 2121); the
Transportation and Circulation Element's goals and policies intended to provide for a balanced
transportation system, and thus reduction in reliance on the automobile; and the Open Space and
Natural Resource Conservation Element's policy related to protection of air quality (Policy
85 Environmental Planning
Policy Document Oro Valley General Plan
Adopted May 29, 2003 (revised)
I11.3.411.3.4 on page 78-7--6).). Through consistent application of these policies, the Town will ensure
that development called for under this Plan does not compromise Oro Valley's air quality.
WATER QUALITY
The Water Resources Element of this Plan (beginning on page 79) highlights water quality issues in
Oro Valley and includes a variety of Town policy commitments ensuring that water quality in the
Planning Area is maintained.
NATU RAL RESOURCES
Oro Valley's natural resources are a point of pride for Town residents, as well as an important
element of the Town's economic health and well-being. The Town's commitments to protecting the
Planning Area's natural features are described in the Open Space and Natural Resources Element of
this General Plan.

G LOSSARY
Average Daily Traffic: The average traffic volume on a roadway segment under average weekday
conditions.
Contiguous: In close proximity; neighboring; adjoining; near in succession; in actual close contact;
touching at a point or along a boundary; bounded or traversed by. (Black's Law Dictionary, 5th
Edition.)
Floor-Area Ratio (FAR): A floor-area ratio is the ratio of the gross building square footage permitted on a
lot to the net square footage of the lot. For example, a floor-area ratio of 0.25 applied to a one-acre
(43,560 sq. ft) lot, with no other requirements (e.g., set-backs), would allow a gross building with
10,890 sq.ft.
Functional Classification: A system to describe the various types of roadways by their primary purpose.
Classifications typically describe not only the number of lanes, but also the types of access permitted to
the roadway.
General Plan: A municipal or county planning document consisting of text policies and corresponding
maps that is general, comprehensive, and long-range in nature. The State of Arizona requires
municipalities and counties in Arizona to have a General Plan, with certain required elements,
depending upon the size and growth rate of the municipality or county. A general plan may also be
known as a "comprehensive plan", "master plan", "city plan" or"county plan".
Goal: The ultimate purpose of an effort stated in a way that is general in nature and immeasurable. Goals
are not quantifiable, time-dependent or suggestive of specific actions for achievement.There is at least
one general plan goal per element, with more than one goal per element where appropriate or
necessary. Goals often refer to one or more aspects of the vision and incorporate specific values. They
are typically presented as"to"statements.
Growing Smarter: Legislation enacted by the State of Arizona in 1998 modifying existing general plan
requirements and placing additional general plan requirements on Arizona municipalities and
counties. The general plan requirements vary by population size and/or population growth rate.
Growing Smarter/Plus: Additional legislation enacted by the State of Arizona in 2000 that modifies and
supplements the Growing Smarter legislation.
Growth Area: An area deemed suitable for infrastructure expansion, improvements designed to support a
variety of land uses and, if appropriate, planned multi-modal transportation.
Implementation Measure: An action, procedure, program, or technique that carries out general plan
policy. Implementation measures also specify primary responsibility for carrying out the action and a
time frame for its accomplishment. Collectively, the general plan's implementation measures will
constitute the Town's General Plan Implementation Program.
Land Use Designation: The allowed type and intensity of development specified in a general plan.
Typically, the land use designation is defined in the text and shown graphically on a land use map.
Designations may specify residential uses (e.g., low density residential) and non-residential uses (e.g.,
parks/open space, commercial), with each specifying land use intensity standards.
Land Use Intensity Standards: Standards of population density and building intensity for each land use
designation. Standards of building intensity for residential uses are stated in this General Plan in terms
of the allowable range of dwelling units per acre. Standards of population density for residential uses
can be derived by multiplying the maximum number of dwellings per acre by the average number of
8 7 Glossary
Policy Document Oro Valley General Plan
Adopted May 29,2003 (revised)
persons per dwelling unit. Standards of building intensity for non-residential uses are stated in terms of
maximum allowable floor-area ratios(FARs).
Level of Service (LOS): A measure of congestion based on the comparison of a roadway's traffic volume
with its capacity. The standard means for measuring the amount of traffic that a roadway or
intersection can accommodate, based on such factors as maneuverability, driver dissatisfaction, and
delay, is level of service. This is also the measure most often used to express local policy concerning
acceptable levels of congestion on a community's streets. Measures range from "A" through "F" based
on the Transportation Research Board's publication Highway Capacity Manual 2000.
Major Amendment: According to the State's Growing Smarter/Plus statutes [ARS §9-461.06.G], "major
amendment' means a substantial alteration of the municipality's land use mixture or balance as
established in the municipality's existing general plan land use element. Each community's general
plan defines what constitutes a"major amendment".
Minor Amendment: A minor amendment is defined as any text or map change that does not meet the
criteria for a major amendment.
Open Space: Any area of natural open space (as defined below) or any disturbed area that has been
supplemented by additional plantings or topping materials. This may include recreational open space
such as parks and playgrounds.
Open Space, Natural: Any natural, undisturbed area.
Planning Area: The planning area is the geographic area covered by the General Plan. For a municipality,
the planning area typically includes the municipality's limits (incorporated boundary) as well as areas
that will potentially be annexed to the municipality.
Policy: A course of action that the Town shall take to implement the goal to which it relates. When
policies are followed and consistently applied, they work to implement the community's vision for the
future.
Roadway Classifications: The allowed types of roadways specified in a general plan. Typically, the
classifications. are defined in the text and shown graphically on a circulation map. Designations may
range from local streets to federal highways, with each specifying roadway standards
Roadway Standards: For each roadway classification, there are standards prescribing the preferred right-
of-way
ightof-way width, number of lanes, lane widths, medians, landscaped areas, bike lanes, and multi-modal
paths.
Trade: As used in Poli 1.1.3 a trade is the desi:nation of a develosable area as open space to offset a
loss of natural open space. Trade areas must be at least a 1:1 ratio with habitat value at least equal to
the area lost(based on •lant t •es sizes and densities). Habitat value may be enhanced, for natural
or disturbed areas b add in: native tants. In addition the trade areas should contain open space,
which meets the following, or similar, criteria: reduces fragmentation, has recreational value, improves
overall ro'ect desi:n or creates buffers adjacent to environmentally sensitive areas.
Urban Services Boundary: The Land Use Map delineates an Urban Services Boundary (USB) around
most of the Planning Area. The area outside of the USB indicates land that should not receive any
increase in density or land use intensity over what currently exists because urban infrastructure has not
yet been extended into these areas and is not planned for the foreseeable future.
Zoning, Zoning Code: The formal regulations for the administration and implementation of the general
plan which divide a city or county into zones specifying allowable uses and building restrictions within
the zones. The zones may also be known as districts or areas.

SUPPLEMENTAL REPORTS AND DOCUMENTATION
To supplement this Policy Document, the Town has prepared a variety of reports that establish the
framework for preparation of the General Plan, as well as documenting the process that the Town
completed in preparing the Plan. This includes the following reports, which have been published
separately and are available through the Town of Oro Valley Community Development Department.
None of these reports are being adopted as a formal part of the General Plan and thus will not be
subject to ratification by the public vote.
UBLIC PARTICIPATION
The Town of Oro Valley made a serious commitment to public involvement through the preparation
of its General Plan Update 2001 Public Participation Action Plan. The Plan outlined a broad range of
outreach tools and mechanisms that the Town employed to engage the Town's key stakeholders in
the Update process. Among the methods that the Town used were a incommunity interest surveythat
was conducted early the process and series of public meetings and workshops that were held
throughout the planning process.
GENERAL N_.A N BACKGROUND REPORT
This report is a compilation of the secondary source information provided by the Town and other
sources during the General Plan Update process. This information was gathered, analyzed and
summarized in order to establish a baseline inventory and assessment of natural and man-made
conditions in the Town. The report contains text, tables and figures addressing the following major
topics: natural resources; land use; transportation; community facilities; population; and economics.
FISCAL JOEL SUMMARY
During the General Plan Update process, a fiscal model was used to assist in making decisions about
various land use alternatives. The model provided estimates of the impact of alternative land use
scenarios on the Town's finances, particularly the general fund. These estimates were based on an
analysis of the Town's recent finances and development activity, as well as discussions with department
managers.
The Town's recent analysis of potential annexations was used as the starting point for the General Plan
Update fiscal impact model. Subsequently, the model was expanded and refined to account for
additional factors, provide additional flexibility, and to enable modeling of multiple geographic areas
simultaneously. The model was developed in an iterative manner, with refinements occurring as
necessary and requested by Town staff, the General Plan Update Steering Committee, and interested
Town residents.
The model provides a tremendous amount of information at a detailed departmental and geographic level
and on an annual basis. These results were summarized into totals at the end of the twenty-year period,
from fiscal year 2002-03 (FY02-03)to fiscal year 2022-23 (FY22-23).
The first runs of the model were used to evaluate the economic sustainability of the alternative land use
scenarios. The final run of the fiscal model was made to evaluate the Town Council's draft land use plan.
To ensure that. the economic health of the Town did not depend on future annexations, the final run
evaluated the expected revenues and expenditures for areas within the current Town boundaries
separately from those areas outside the Town boundaries. The results for the 20-year period are
summarized below:

FUTURE SEARCH CONFERENCE SUMMARY
Future Search Conferences were established as a method for generating broad public participation,
during which members of a community can meet, discuss, debate, and set the community's path to
the future. The October 27, 2001 Conference was the first public event to kick-off the update of
Focus 2020. It was established as a visioning workshop in which attendees were encouraged to
explore the Town's past and present, and to look to the future within a framework of sustainability.
The one hundred and twenty-seven citizens who attended the conference identified important
community issues and values. The results of the conference as described in this report were used to
help identify the vision statement for the Update 2020 General Plan.
Focus GROUP MEETINGS SUMMARY
The intent of the Focus Group Meetings was to direct the attention of Oro Valley residents to the
essential issues facing the community. The meetings were organized thematically to address related
