Bryant Nodine suggested that the Board continue to contact the Clerk's office regarding
attendance and meeting schedule.
Chairman Suozzi stated that the added language for this section for the rules and
procedures should read as follows: "Make room arrangements,mail materials, take
minutes, schedule meetings and contact the Board regarding attendance and meeting
schedule."
Member Swan asked if there was a primary contact person in the Planning and Zoning
Department for the Board of Adjustment.
Mr.Nodine explained that Dee Widero, the Senior Zoning Inspector, was the primary
contact person for both the public and the Board.

Special Session
Board of Adjustment
Vice Chairman Adler suggested that the following modifications be made:
• As a part of the staff report, any contact made between the staff and the applicant
prior to the hearing are summarized in the staff report if it is germane or pertinent to
the case. He explained that, as a part of the Planning and Zoning staff responsibility,
discussion with the applicant regarding alternatives or approaches pertaining to their
application should be summarized as part of the staff report. Ms. Widero agreed.
• The applicant should coordinate all necessary materials that can be
presented to the Board of Adjustment like at Town Council and Planning and Zoning
meetings, and they should be suitable for overhead display. He explained that if an
applicant comes before the Board with exhibits, and given enough notice, the
applicant could make the transparencies so that the Board can view them all at once.
He added that this would be consistent with other requirements.
• The notification of all surrounding property owners within the 300 feet should be
consistent with the Zoning Code,because the surrounding area could be more than
300 feet.
• It would be helpful for the public testimony and the applicant if a laminated card were
placed on the podium that identified the 5 Criteria. He explained that this would
serve as a reminder to the witness that their testimony should be addressing the 5
Criteria and would facilitate the testimony.
Discussion: Chairman Suozzi asked if these were practical suggestions that could be
carried out by staff on a regular basis.
Vice Chairman Adler stated that he considered the additional details for"applicant
contact"to be a major issue. He said that if there are no objections, the modifications
should be incorporated as a part of the Planning and Zoning responsibility or activity.
Member Swan asked if the information contained in the packet included all
communications with the applicant regarding the case.
Ms. Widero replied"yes."
Vice Chairman Adler explained that what he was looking for was any incidental contact
of a substantial nature. When the applicant inquires about how he or she can get relief for
a particular project, there could be contact between staff and the applicant concerning
alternatives while seeking a variance. Therefore, he would like to know that the
discussion had taken place and not repeat questions that had been addressed by staff.
Ms. Widero agreed with Vice Chairman Adler. She explained that she believed what
Vice Chairman Adler was asking for was direct information, such as, if specific questions
were asked and what was the response. She explained that this information would be
implemented and placed in the section of the staff report entitled, "Summary of Facts."
05/22/01 Minutes 3
Special Session
Board of Adjustment
Vice Chairman Adler explained that after discussing the current case with Ms. Widero
over the phone, there had been contact with the applicant that was not summarized in the
report. He explained that this was how the subject was brought to light. He explained
that the suggestion was not a calamity,but to help create a more thorough staff report.
Member Swan expressed that he was unsure where the responsibility should fall,but felt
that it is the Board member's responsibility to form their own conclusions and ask
questions that he or she believes would be relevant to the case.
Member Done stated that the Board was not the Town Council. She explained that most
of the applicants that appear before Council are large businesses that have the proper
equipment to create transparencies. She explained that the modifications should be"soft
peddled" if feasible,because the homeowners might be discouraged and intimidated by
the requirements. Chairman Suozzi agreed.
Member Swan asked if the Town would support the costs for the transparencies or would
the applicant be expected to provide them.
Vice Chairman Adler explained that the applicant should provide the necessary reports
and materials to the Town that would be suitable for an overhead presentation. He stated
that this was not a major expense. He explained that this would facilitate the Board to be
able to look at an exhibit at the same time and allow the applicant to communicate more
efficiently.
Member Done stated that this would be a detriment for the ordinary person, therefore she
could not vote in favor of making transparencies a requirement on the application.
Mr. Nodine, Planning and Zoning Administrator recommended that the use of
transparencies be encouraged because it would enable the Board to view specific
documents at the same time. He explained that this would also prevent the applicant
from approaching the dais.
Members of the Board agreed that the applicant should be encouraged to use
transparencies, if possible.
2. Board Duties
Vice Chairman Adler explained that in the Board of Adjustment manual, page 7, it
indicates that site tours would be arranged. He stated that as a procedure and subject to
approval of the Chair, site tours should be arranged for the same reasons discussed
regarding the use of transparencies. He explained that if all of the members go to the
location and agree to what is being viewed, misinterpretation or misunderstandings might
be avoided. He explained that he would like to add under Item 2 that the Chair arranges
site tours when in his judgement it is appropriate to do so.
05/22/01 Minutes 4
Special Session
Board of Adjustment
Member Swan suggested that before the Board entertained the modifications that the
town attorney review it.
Mr. Nodine explained that from previous discussions held with Mr. Dudley, the Town
Attorney, it would be okay to have site tours, as long as the discussion was fact-based
information.
Member Swan felt that this could affect the opinion of a Board member and their
interpretation of the site. Mr. Nodine agreed.
Member Done stated that she personally felt that a lot of the backbone of the Board
comes from the fact that they were all independent human beings with their own
individual ideas. She explained that she would be uncomfortable attending a tour and
avoid conversation that might corrupt the process. Therefore, she did not like the idea of
viewing the property with the other Board members. Chairman Suozzi agreed.
Chairman Suozzi stated that he liked the idea of being able to view a site on his own
terms and stated that it could be difficult for staff to coordinate with the Board specific
dates and time for a site tour. Therefore, he opposed having site tours.
3. The Applicant
Mr. Nodine clarified that the material should be submitted within 15 working days prior
to a meeting.
There were no other changes to this item.
4. Board Meetings
Vice Chairman Adler stated that he would prefer if the applicant were instructed that they
would be allowed to answer specific questions from the Board and not be allowed to give
a second presentation. He explained that the applicant typically does make a second
presentation, which is repetitive and redundant. He explained that there should be an
opportunity for the Board to ask questions of the applicant, and that their comments
should be limited to those questions. He explained that this would facilitate getting the
meeting on target and keeping it on target.
Member Swan stated that the applicant should be given a fair opportunity to respond to
questions from the public in a manner that they felt was appropriate.
Member Done stated that any applicant that appears before the Board must feel as though
he or she has had a fair opportunity to present and defend their case.
Vice Chairman Adler stated that for, clarification, this was not his recommendation at all
and would take a bit of an exception to that kind of interpretation. He stated that he was
05/22/01 Minutes 5
Special Session
Board of Adjustment
not in favor of telling someone what to say and how to say it. He explained that his point
was that if the public was to raise questions or issues and if the applicant has raised
questions and issues in his testimony, it seems that it would be the responsibility of the
Board to ask for clarification of those issues from the applicant. Therefore, leaving the
applicant ample opportunity to present their case. He explained that it was the
responsibility of the Board to listen and sort out the issues that remain to be resolved, and
address those issues to the applicant when the public testimony was over. He explained
that this would facilitate the information, not restrain it or be unfair.
Member Done asked for Vice Chairman Adler to repeat his recommendation.
Vice Chairman Adler explained that following the testimony that the applicant would be
called back to the podium to address specific issues and questions. He said that it was the
responsibility of the Board to zero in on the remaining questions and issues so that the
Board can make a proper decision. Recommendation: "Following specific testimony,
the applicant is requested to approach the Board and answer specific questions from the
Board."
Member Swan disagreed and stated that he would not vote in favor of the
recommendation. He explained that the applicant should have the latitude that was
necessary to address specific questions from the public and the Board.
Chairman Suozzi stated that the applicant should be allowed to defend his case and felt
that the recommendation may not be necessary.
Member Done pointed out that this would be a rebuttal of which did not appear in the
document pertaining to rules and procedures as a consideration. She also pointed out that
the new rules and new Board members that were unfamiliar with the Board of
Adjustment procedure would primarily use the Procedures Guide.
Mr. Nodine suggested using the following agenda itinerary:
Board Of Adjustment Meeting Order
1. Call to order.
2. Roll Call.
3. Minutes.
4. Presentation for agenda items(s).
5. Petitioner/applicant presentation.

05/22/01 Minutes 6
Special Session
Board of Adjustment
14. Planning& Zoning staff update.
15. Motion of adjournment
Vice Chairman Adler suggested that the applicant questions be held until after the staff
report. He explained that rather than the Board asking questions of the applicant, the
Board would move immediately to the staff report. He explained that the questions could
be asked of either the staff or the applicant so that all the questions from the Board are
asked at once giving the applicant the first opportunity to present their case. This should
be followed by the staff report, questions from the Board, public testimony, summation
and so on.
Member Swan disagreed and stated that it would be only fair that the applicants present
their case first or have the staff report first, so that the public could hear the staff report
first. He explained that the sequence should be the petitioner presents their case,
followed by the public input. He stated that the format of the current agenda did not
flow.
Consensus: The Board agreed that Item 6 and Item 8 should be merged with Item 4 of the
recommended rules and procedures draft summary.
• Item 6. Conflict of Interest: Issues should be declared up-front so that the Board
member can be fair, objective, and impartial and should not be personally involved.
It would be helpful here to reference materials related to conflict of interest. The
Department of Commerce has a good handout.
• Item 8. Other: It was suggested that a more "personal"notification letter be mailed to
encourage public response and that the Board recommends to the Planning and
Zoning Commission that the radius should be increased to at least 600 or 1000 feet.
5. Selection and Composition of the Board of Adjustment
Vice Chairman Adler explained that on page 14, in the Board of Adjustment Manual, that
there was a suggestive evaluative process. He suggested that the Board consider using
the evaluation process contained in the manual.
Chairman Suozzi explained that the additional language for this item should read as
follows: "An "objective" evaluation process of a board member's performance would be
desirable and perhaps serve as a guideline for the Town Council and the Government
Review Task Force, as recommended on page 14, Section 5 of the Board of Adjustment
Manual."

05/22/01 Minutes 7
Special Session
Board of Adjustment
6. Conflict of Interest
Mr.Nodine reiterate that the "Conflict of Interest"recommendations would be more
suitable if it was incorporated into the Board of Adjustment Manual rather than the Rules
and Procedure Guide.
The information contained in Item 6 of the"Draft Summary Recommended Rules and
Procedures" for this item has been merged with Item 4.
7. Relationship with other Boards/Commission/Council
Mr.Nodine reported that how the Board members present themselves and the actions of
the Board to other official bodies of the Town or individuals of these bodies and the
public,needs to be included in the rules and procedures.
Vice Chairman Adler explained that at a previous meeting,Mr. Dudley offered the
opinion that as a Board of Adjustment member, to present a Board of Adjustment
decision to another commission or board that might be hearing the same case would be
inappropriate. He explained that Mr. Dudley felt that it was inappropriate for a member
of the board to appear before the Planning and Zoning Commission that was hearing a
case involving, for example, a Conditional Use Permit. To present, as a member of the
Board of Adjustment, how the Board concluded in a particular matter would be
inappropriate. He stated that it should be expanded upon the fact that when there is a
matter that is decided by the Board of Adjustment and conditions are added, the Board
needs to be clear because the motion will have to speak for itself.
Mr. Nodine explained that the problem with this particular issue was that, "a single
person trying to represent a collective decision." He explained that the safest way to
accomplish communication with other boards and commissions would be to provide the
motions and the minutes. He further explained that the motion should be as clear as
possible describing what the Board was trying to achieve.
8. Other
Vice Chairman Adler explained that the item was on the Commission work plan to
review expanding the radius of notification.
Mr. Nodine reported that a letter of notification had been developed and was available for
review and that the amendments to the Code for the notification procedure have been
added to the Commission work plan.
The information contained in Item 8 of the "Recommended Draft Summary Rules and
Procedures" for this item has been merged with Item 4.

There were no comments or changes to this item.
Member Done referenced page 3 of the Board of Adjustment Manual regarding
"Officers", and read the following: "The Board of Adjustment shall elect a Chairman and
Vice-Chairman from among its own members." She suggested that the procedure be date
sensitive and that the Chairperson and Vice Chairperson election be held the seconded
meeting of each fiscal year.

for the Draft Summary of the Rules and Procedures Guide. Vice Chairman Adler

ORO VALLEY PLANNING AND ZONING DIVISION
BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT REPORT
CASE NO: OV 10-01-06
Hearing Date: July 24, 2001
Agenda Item No.: 3
Prepared By: Dee Widero, Senior Zoning Inspector
REQUEST: JEFFREY, AND PAMELA NUNN, 12318 N. TALL GRASS DRIVE, ORO
VALLEY, AZ 85737. ARE APPEALING THE DECISION OF THE
PLANNING AND ZONING ADMINISTRATOR OF JUNE 6, 2001 WHICH
PERMITTED THE ISSURANCE OF A BUILDING PERMIT (B0100305)
WITHOUT DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD APPROVAL, FOR LOT 17
OF TANGERINE HEIGHTS, 12300 N. TALL GRASS DRIVE.
REQUEST SPECIFICS:
Mr. and Mrs. Nunn are appealing an Administrative Decision that allowed the issuance of a
permit for Lot 17 of Tangerine Heights without architectural approval of the home by the
Development Review Board. (See the attached and application letter from Mr.Nunn.)
Pertinent Facts
• The Nunns reside on Lot 18 a 22, 090-square foot lot in the Tangerine Heights Subdivision.
• The subject lot (Lot 17) is a 22, 698-square foot lot just to the south of Lot 18. A house is
under construction, framed and sheathed, on the lot.
• Tangerine Heights is a custom build subdivision, zoned R1-20 & R1-36, recorded April 8,
1999. C&C Construction is the builder.
• Section 3-301 of the Zoning Code is applicable to this case. Based on this section staff does
not send architectural plans for R1-20 and larger-lot subdivisions to the DRB for review
unless an overlay district could affect the design of the homes, or unless (in accordance with
various section in Article 6)the homes are two stories.
Sec. 3-301 Applicability
The Development Review Board shall review all developments other than R1-144, R1-43,
R1-36, and R1-20 Districts which are not subject to overlay.
• C&C Construction, having built primarily in Desert Vista subdivision, which is zoned R1-7,
did not realize that DRB approval was not required. They submitted an application for DRB
approval for the models in the whole subdivision, and subsequently, they submitted revision
to DRB for any of the models where they proposed to change in the front elevation(these are
termed"one-time revisions").
• C&C Construction submitted three applications for one-time revisions within this
subdivision. Planning and Zoning staff forwarded these to the DRB for approval. Over forty
other homes approved within the subdivision were not submitted to DRB.
• The Zoning Code's design guidelines encourage diversity and character of neighborhoods by
varying setbacks, building elevations, and architectural treatments. All zones have
development standards. In Tangerine Heights lots 1-50 are zoned R1-20, with a maximum
building height of 2 stories and 18'. Setbacks are: front 30', side 15', and rear 30'. Also a
maximum grading limit was placed on the plat for this subdivision, which is 12,000 square
feet (administrative approval is possible for up to 15,000). There are no limits as to the
square footage or size of the home as long as the other standards are met.
• The plan for Lot 17 meets all setbacks and other standards of the Zoning Code and the plat.
The area graded on Lot 17 is less than 12,000 square feet.
Chronology
• On September 4, 1999, C&C Construction submitted a request for DRB approval on seven
models for Tangerine Heights Subdivision.
• On May 9,2000, a DRB submittal for lots 11 & 14 received approval for Architecture.
• On May 24, 2000, a DRB submittal on lot 18 (Mr. & Mrs.Nunn's property) came in for the
June DRB meeting and was approved.
• On July 6, 2000, a building permit was submitted for lot 18. It was issued August 2, 2000
and received a building final on December 22,2000.
• On December 20, 2000, a revision to the final plat for Tangerine Heights was approved to
change the limits of grading from 10,000 square feet to 12,000 square feet, and with the
Planning and Zoning Administrators approval,up to 15,000 square feet.
• On April 10, 2001, C&C Construction submitted a building permit application for lot 17 (the
lot to the south of the Nunns). This was a one-time revision to model "Catalina B". It was
reviewed by town staff and issued May 17,2001. It was not sent to DRB.
• On June 6, 2001, Mr. Nunn came into Community Development to see the plan for lot 17
and the model plan that the application referred to—the one time revision to "Catalina B".
He asked Shirley if this plan had gone before the DRB and was informed that it wasn't
necessary for it to go to DRB because of the R 1-20 zoning.
• On June 7, 2001 Mr. Nunn returned to get a copy of copy DRB agendas. Staff gave Mr.
Nunn the criteria to appeal an administrative decision.
• On June 14, 2001, Mr.Nunn submitted his appeal to the BOA for the July 24,2001 meeting.
He appealed the decision regarding the issuance of the permit without DRB approval.
• On July 9, 2001, Staff contacted C&C Construction and requested that they stay construction
on the house for Lot 17. They indicated that they would not and construction has continued
on Lot 17.

SITE LOCATION:
This site is located at 12300 N. Tall Grass Drive, lot 17 of Tangerine Heights Subdivision.
The site can be reached by traveling east from La Canada Drive on Tangerine Road for
approximately 3 of a mile to Copper Springs Trail turn left (north). Follow to the first street
on left witch is Prairie Bluff Drive turn follow to the end, make a right turn on Tall Grass
Drive, lot 17 is the 8th lot north on the right, it is under construction and posted with a public
notice.
NOTIFICATION:
In accordance with ARS 9-462.06F, the property is posted with a notice of hearing and the
hearing was advertised in the Daily Territorial. At the time of this report preparation, staff had
not received any public comment pertinent to the issues in this case.
SITE ANALYSIS:
Lot 17 lies adjacent to and just south of Lot 18. Both lots are rectangular, roughly the same
dimensions and size, flat and at approximately the same grade, and the rear yards of both face to
the east. (See the attached Site/Grading Plans.)
PLAN ANALYSIS:
(Not applicable.)
SUMMARY:
The Nunns have appealed the issuance of a permit for Lot 17 based on the facts that the models
were approved by DRB and a revision to the Nunns home was also approved by DRB before
they received a permit. The Zoning Code does not require DRB approval for architecture within
this subdivision.
SUGGESTED MOTION:
The Board may wish to consider the following motions:
I move to approve OV 10-01-06,thereby reversing the decision of the Planning and Zoning
Administrator and requiring that lot 17 of Tangerine Heights submit with the Development Review
Board for plan approval.
OR
I move to deny OV 10-01-06 finding that: (Board to state reason why the request cannot be granted).

June 14, 2001
Town of Oro valley
Planning and Zoning Division
11000 N. LaCanada Drive
Oro Valley, Az 85737
To whom it may concern,
We are writing this letter to appeal the decision which granted the building permit to C
and C construction # B0100305 for the property at 12300 N. Tall grass Drive. A copy of
the permit is attached. We are asking for a decision by the city to immediately halt
forever the construction of the proposed home at 12300 N. Tall Grass Drive for the
following reasons.
On or about March 2000 we visited with C and C construction at their development
known as Tangerine Heights aka the Heights at Oro Valley. We were shown a number of
available model plans to choose from as well as a number of lots to choose from.Over
the course of a month or so we selected a model known as the Sonoran. We further
selected lot 18 based upon certain representations made by C and C construction.
Representations such as view of the Santa Catalina Mountains, Pusch ridge and the City
lights as well as the elevation of our lot, along with assurance given to us that `' no home
will be built in such a fashion as to block your view that you are paying tor_ This quote
was also given to our neighbors to the north Tim Pomp as well as Sharon Myers who
lives a few doors down and in addition to several realtors, a Barb and Alan Murray of
Long Realty and I am sure many others. We paid a $29,000 premium for our views,
which was one of the very highest premiums paid due to the view. We were further
assured that by looking up the street all the homes were or would be placed in such a
fashion that any obstruction would not happen. When we went to place our home on the
lot we were allowed a 30-foot setback and no more as it would obstruct the view of our
neighbors to the north on lot 19, the Pomps. We certainly understood and agreed to the
placement of our home. Given the fact that we purchased the largest model offered and
looking to the south it was represented that any home next door would be no larger than
ours as we had the largest model and with the setbacks we had to conform with, were told
where the placement of the home would be. The attached floor plans from C and C and
the pictures we have submitted show what was offered to the public as well as why even
the largest home would not block our view. Further we have attached Internet advertising
showing sq footages and prices offered.
We decided to make cosmetic changes to the front of our home to more of a southwest
contemporary design, without making an changes to the blueprint size of the model
offered. We were informed that this woul mean the home would have to go in front of
the Design review board for approval. We complied with this and awaited their decision.
Our home, although from the street the front elevation looks nothing like a home they
offered was submitted our permit as a Model home with a revision. Upon approval they
ey
told us that they had to alter the blueprint by a couple of feet as the home as a standard
plan was too big for the lot and had to change a foot or two to fit the lot. That was fine.
Construction started and we moved in December 21,2000.
Now to the matter at hand. The home that is currently under construction on Lot 17, looks
like a model they offer from the front but was submitted as a One time custom home. The
home being built is over 5500 square feet, over 2200 square feet larger than any home
offered which means it is approx 25 feet deeper than any home offered, yet it did not
have to go in front of the Design Review Board due to a decision by Bryant Nodine that it
was a" minor change". This home if constructed will completely block our views of
Pusch ridge, part of the Santa Catalina Mountains and all of the City light views all of
which we paid a $29,000 premium for.
Under your Development Review Chapter 3-3 paragraph C. it states in part the following
"Staff shall be permitted to approve minor/common sense changes of architecture or
landscape plans in order to avoid delay by using the normal development review process.
Minor/common sense changes or alterations include those that:
1. Are reasonably similar to the approved plan.
Is going from 3300 sq ft to over 5500 sq feet a minor change'?
2. Are not already completed.
3. Benefit the town or the environment.
4. Are not controversial.
Was no consideration given that a home that is over 60% larger than the largest
floor plan, at a cost of approx $800,000 in a mid $300,000 development might be
considered controversial?
5. Are consistent with similarly situated property.
What is consistent about this home with the others? The home to the south on lot
16 is even smaller than ours and I believe is under 3000 sq. feet. Where is the
consistency here?
6. Do not affect mass or streetscape.
How can you add over 2200 square feet and not affect mass. This is like adding a
home to a home! Does not going from 3300 square feet to over 5500 square feet
affect mass?
7. Do not affect pre-approved plats.
This was not pre-approved nor did it go in front of the DRB. Yet we had to go in
front of the DRB for cosmetic changes. Also for the record we were originally
going to replace the wooden headers on the front of our home with stucco and
leave the design the same, however after being informed that it would have to go
in front of the DRB for that minor change, we were told we might as well change
the whole front, that it would not take any longer. I think a change e from 3300 to
5500 square feet does in fact change the pre-approved plats. .
8. Are approved by the neighborhood association, if necessary.
Well, we have found out that the builder controls the neighborhood association
and they will not answer any questions regarding this. I have tried several times
on several different occasions to get this information and they will not cooperate
at all.
Further under Section 3-302 Criteria specifically, the DRB is guided by the
following criteria in including but not limited to:
A. The board shall examine the application to insure all provisions of this
ordinance and all other ordinances, master plans, general planund standards
of the town of Oro Valley shall be complied with where applicable.
B. The proposed development shall not have a detrimental effect upon the
general health, welfare, safety and convenience of persons residing or working
in the neighborhood, nor shall it be detrimental or injurious to the
neighborhood.
This definitely injures us.
C. The proposed development shall promote a desirable relationship of structures
to one another
Where is the promoting of a desirable relationship with this monster in
between 2 much smaller homes? This is a 6-bedroom home with a casital
D. The height, area, setback and overall mass as well as parts of any structure....
Shall be appropriate to the development.
The overall mass is way out of line and with the setback is not appropriate for
this development.
E. Does not apply
F. The architectural character of the proposed structure shall be in harmony with
and compatible to, those structures in the neighboring environment and the
architectural character adopted for any given area avoiding excessive variety
or monotonous repetition.
Is not a home with over 5500 square feet blocking peoples paid for view in an
area where the homes average maybe 3000 sq feet excessive'? Especially in a
planned development with certain models none of which even closely
resemble this in size?
Currently, we have a court order a copy of which is attached ordering C and C
construction to construct nothing above grade until our depositions are taken
and a hearing scheduled,This hearing should be sometime next week or so.
Further, Bryant Nodine never mentioned when I met with him the week of
June that there is an appeal process to his decision. Why did he not mention
this? Is he not a city employee paid by my tax dollars? We only found out
because my wife Pam pulled it up on the internet and I took the day off of
work at her insistance . I went to city hall today the I4tt of June to get the
records for this home being constructed and decided to ask for Bayer Vella.
He was most helpful in being honest with me about the process and the dates.
We respectfully ask for immediate action on this matter for the above reasons.
This home should have gone in front of the DRB instead of being manipulated
thru the system. This home if constructed will cause us great financial damage
as well as the emotional distress it has already caused us. We ask that
construction be halted immediately, the permit revoked and damages paid,
before further legal action is taken. It is not too much to ask that their normal
model be built, with their normal setback that we had to comply with and
done in such a fashion that it does not obstruct our view that we as well as
others had to pay a hefty premium for.
Sincerely,
Jeff and Pam Nunn

Office of the Town Attorney
Memo
To: Dee Widero, Sr.Zoning Inspector
From: Dan L. Dudley,Town Attorney
Date: July 18,2001
Re: Nunn Case(insert into report)
Mr. and Mrs. Nunn originally sought a temporary injunction before the Honorable Lena Rodriguez
in Pima County Superior Court. The plaintiffs (Nunns) introduced evidence. The defendants did
not. At the close of plaintiffs evidence, defendants moved to dismiss the application for
preliminary injunction. The Court had dismissed the injunction, stating that: The Court having
heard the evidence, having observed the credibility and demeanor of the witnesses, having
conducted an onsite inspection, as well as having heard argument, finds and orders that the
plaintiffs will continue to have "breathtaking views" of Pusch Ridge and the Catalina Mountains
even if the Braunreiters build their home on Lot 17. The Court further found that plaintiffs could
show no irreparable injury and that damages at law are not adequate. The Court further found that
public policy favors the landowner's property rights and freedom to build on his or her property,
subject only to appropriate legal restraints. Consequently, if there are to be limitations on
neighboring homes and homeowners' property use, such must be enforceable under the law. On
the facts presented to the Court, the Court found that the public policy does not favor plaintiff's
position. The Court further found and concluded, based on the record before it, that plaintiff's
request for injunction relief failed and ordered the dismissing of the application for injunctive
relief The Court,however,permitted plaintiffs claims for compensatory damages to proceed.
Following the filing of the Pima County Superior Court action, the Nunns appealed a
determination of the Planning and Zoning Director in this matter. Pursuant to ARS 9-462.06(E)an
appeal to the Board of Adjustment stays all proceedings in the matter being appealed. As a result
of that stay, the Planning and Zoning Administrator requested that C&C Construction cease
building on Lot 17 until a determination by the Board of Adjustment and further advised C&C
Construction and the property owner that if they didn't cease such construction, they were
proceeding at their own risk pending a final determination in this matter.

MINUTE ENTRY
Page: 3 Date: June 28, 2001 Case No: C-20012573
THE COURT FINDS that the Plaintiffs' lot will continue to have "breathtaking views"of
Puscb Ridge and the Catalina Mountains even if the Braunreiters build their home on Lot 17.
The statements made by the Defendant's representatives were merely hyperbole and/or
descriptive statements usual in describing views in conjunction with the sale of realty and did not
constitute misrepresentations, consumer fraud nor binding promises.
The Plaintiffs were not induced to buy the property with regard to any representations made
regarding the city view. Rather, the back of the home faces east toward the Catalina Mountains and not
towards the city. There were Palo Verde trees on Lot 17 blocking some of the city view. Further,the
city views from the two windows in question are limited by the Plaintiffs' own decision not to purchase
the seamless windows as well as the additional obstruction caused by Plaintiffs' large southeast patio
pillar. See for example Exhibits 31, 32, and 18.
Additionally, Plaintiffs have failed to meet their burden that any promises or representations were
made that the homes would be staggered to guarantee city views. In fact, the Court's own inspection
during its on-site visit revealed that some of the homes were staggered in the reverse direction. See for
example Lot 14 on Exhibit 49,
_. —_Paaintiffs rtsophisticateri_realtors-And r ely4Inderstood#heilature wt u i ey-
reviewed. The Plaintiff Jeffrey Nunn's own testimony indicated that he understood that, if in fact oral
promises regarding the views were made and relied upon by Plaintiffs,such provisions should have been
included in the written contract,
IRE COURT FINDS AND CONCLUDES with regard to the Application for Preliminary
Injunction that on the current state of the record,Plaintiffs have failed to demonstrate a likelihood of
success on the merits.
Plaintiffs' original Complaint did not seek injunctive relief,but rather, only compensatory
damages. Even the Amended Complaint seeks primarily damages by way of rescission and other forms

of relief compensable by way of money damages.
Based on the state of the record before it, TILE COURT FINDS that Plaintiffs carp show no irreparable
injury and that damages at law are adequate.
THE COURT FURTIIER FINDS that the balance of hardships does not ter necessarily

THE COURT FURTHER FINDS that public policy favors the landowner's

property rty to appropriate legal restraints. Consequently,if there
are to be Iimitations on neighboring homes and homeowners' property use,such must be
under the law. On the facts here, the public policydoes enforceable
not favor Plaintiffs'position.
THE COURT FINDS AND CONCLUDES on the state of the record before it with
t.
the Application for Preliminary Injunction, that Plaintiffs' request regard to

Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED dismissing the application for injunctive relief.
Plaintiffs' remaining claims for compensatory damages shall proceed,
In view of the Court's ruling, it appears there are no viable claims remainingwith

Dick Macs,representing Vistoso Partners,explained that all prospective buyers must be
informed of any special information,restrictions,or conditions regarding the property
(such as utilities,air flight paths, roads,conservation easements,etc.)He explained that
the signed acknowledgement is received through the State of Arizona Department of Real
Estate Report and must be submitted before closing on the property.
Mayor Loomis stated that the Town needed to assure that the buyer is aware of any
restrictions on their property and to make sure that the system works Iike it is supposed
to. He stated that the Town is concerned about how each subsequent buyer would be
made aware of said restrictions_
Mr. Hulsey stated that the restrictions are recorded with the plat and the plat is the
common element that follows the property.
Mr. Macs explained that standard real estate contracts that are used in every transaction
of a sale of property must provide full,legs)disclosure. The seller has to disclose any
and all restrictions on the property at the time of the sale.
In response to questions from Mayor Loomis regarding the building area going into the
conservation easement,Mr.Hulsey stated that they would correct the pad on Sheet 4,Lot
268. Regarding Lot 239 on Sheet 3,he explained that the building area does not go into
the slopes but follows the edge of the 25% slope.
Mayor Loomis opened the floor for public comment.
Bill Adler, 10720 N. Eagle Eye Place,stated that the trail should be secured with a
guaranteed public access and connectivity at both ends. He stated that the trail should be
buffered from the riparian area to be consistent with the Harris Environmental Study. He
also stated that there is no support in the General Plan for extending private property
rights into open space_ He asked that the General Plan be preserved.
Hector Conde, 14040 N.Lobelia, stated that the General Plan requires clustering to
protect the Environmentally Sensitive Land(ESL)ordinance and buffer zones near open
space. He also stated that the lot sizes are platted in the ESL and he asked that the ESL
be protected even though the ESL Ordinance has not yet been implemented.

COMMON AREAS A AND C,LOCATED ON TORTOLITA MOUNTAIN DRIVE
WITHIN RANCHO VISTOSO,NEIGHBORHOOD 11
Community Development Director Brent Sinclair reviewed the Council Communication
and explained that the property is located in the far northwest corner of the Rancho
Vistoso Planned Area Development (PAD.) The property is zoned as Very Low Density
Residential(VLDR) and is proposed for 41 lots within the 90.25 acre site.
Mr. Sinclair reviewed the four main issues with respect to the plat.:
• Platting into PAD Open Space
• Use of Conservation Easements
• Dedication of a trail
• Timing of water availability
Council discussed the following issues:
• Conservation easements offering best protection
• Infrastructure improvements before Final Plat recordation
• Trail issues (Public access, Width_ Maintenance)
• Notification to potential buyers
Charles Hulsey, The WLB Group,representing Vistoso Partners, reviewed the conditions
as proposed for Stone Canyon In Preliminary Plat. He stated that they feel that:
■ Regarding Condition CI The conservation easements being recorded on the Final
Plat and with the Deed is too much.
JUL-23-01 10:32 FROM- T-549 P.14/19 F-938
12/I g/oo Minutes,Council Regular Session 6
= Regarding Condition #3: They propose leaving the trail easement in the wash and
they feel 15 feet is more appropriate. They are also asking that it be dedicated to the
Homeowner's Association as are all the other trails in the P .D.
= Regarding Conditions # 5 & 6: They ask that they be allowed other alternatives such
as utilizing a temporary pumping station until such time as the infrastructure is
completed
Explained that they could not close on the lots until the Final Plat is approved and
recorded
Dick Maes, representing Vistoso Partners, explained that all prospective buyers must be
informed of any special information, restrictions, or conditions regarding the property
(such as utilities,air flight paths, roads, conservation easements, etc.) He explained that
the signed acknowledgement is received through the State of Arizona Department of Real
Estate Report and must be submitted before closing on the property.
Mayor Loomis stated that the Town needed to assure that the buyer is aware of any
restrictions on their property and to make sure that the system works like it is supposed
to. He stated that the Town is concerned about how each subsequent buyer would be
made aware of said restrictions_
Mr. Hulsey stated that the restrictions are recorded with the plat and the plat is the
common element that follows the property.
Mr. Maes explained that standard real estate contracts that are used in every transaction
of a sale of property must provide full, legal disclosure_ The seller has to disclose any
and all restrictions on the property at the time of the sale.
In response to questions from Mayor Loomis regarding the building area going into the
conservation easement, Mr. Hulsey stated that they would correct the pad on Sheet 4,Lot
268. Regarding Lot 239 on Sheet 3,he explained that the building area does not go into
the slopes but follows the edge of the 25% slope.
Mayor Loomis opened the floor for public comment.
Bill Adler, 10720 N. Eagle Eye Place, stated that the trail should be secured with a
guaranteed public access and connectivity at both ends. He stated that the trail should be
buffered from the riparian area to be consistent with the Harris Environmental Study. He
also stated that there is no support in the General Plan for extending private property
rights into open space_ He asked that the General Pian be preserved.
Hector Conde, 14040 N_ Lobelia, stated that the General Plan requires clustering to
protect the Environmentally Sensitive Land (ESL) ordinance and buffer zones near open
space. He also stated that the lot sizes are platted in the ESL and he asked that the ESL
be protected even though the ESL Ordinance has not yet been implemented.

Patty Estes, 11700 N. Joi Drive,recommended denial of the Stone Canyon III
Preliminary Plat until such time that some of the major problems could be resolved. She
explained that her major concern was regarding the trail through Canada Agua. She
stated that the Tortolita Mountain Park and the Eastern Pima County Trails Master Plans
require that a public trail run through Neighborhood 11. She stated that the Riparian
Ordinance discourages building anything in riparian areas;therefore, a trail should be
made outside the riparian area. The current proposed trail has no trail head with no
public or private access. Ms. Estes also stated that the preliminary plat does not satisfy
the General Plan's requirements_
Council further discussed the trail, providing public access and connectivity and the
requirements of notification to the potential buyers through the State of Arizona
Department of Real Estate Report.
In response to questions from Mayor Loomis and Council Member Johnson, Mr. Maes
explained that:
■ The State of Arizona Department of Real Estate Report has a signature line that
states "By signing this document,the buyer acknowledges that he has read and
fully understands this document."
■ Most trails in the Rancho Vistoso PAD are accessed where it crosses a roadway in
the subdivision
• The Rancho Vistoso PAD does not require a public trail head at the end of the
trail
• Condemnation by the municipality with the rights of condemnation could provide
a public access
• Would be willing to work with Pima County to help resolve problems that are
within Vistoso Partners' ability to resolve

1. CASE NO OV10-10-05 MR. STEVEN CONLEY BARLOW REQUESTS A VARIANCE
TO REDUCE THE REQUIRED REAR YARD SETBACK FOR AN ACCESSORY
STRUCTURE FROM 5 FEET TO 4 FEET, AND TO REDUCE THE REQUIRED 10
FEET BETWEEN THE STRUCTURE AND MAIN BUILDING. SUBJECT
PROPERTY IS LOCATED IN THE CANADA RIDGE SUBDIVISION, 11789 NORTH
EAGLE CREST DRIVE, LOT 30 ORO VALLEY, ARIZONA 85737
Vice Chairman Adler swore in the witness that was intending to testify.
Steven Conley Barlow, 11053 North Eagle Crest Drive, explained that the dimensions of the structure
would be approximately fourteen feet in length by ten feet in width and ten feet in height. He stated
that the sole purpose for the structure would be to provide a usable shaded area for his friends and
family to enjoy away from the afternoon and west facing sun.
Mr. Barlow explained that the rear portion of the home connects to three properties, which are
separated by a common wall. He explained that the difficulties resulting from complying with the
zoning requirements was that the width of the yard from the home to the back fence was only 20-feet
07/24/01 ivlinute, Board of Adjustment 2
Regular Session
and 8-inches. He explained that the zoning easement of ten feet lies almost in the center of the yard,
prohibiting maximum shade coverage from the southwest afternoon sun. Therefore, he asked that with
the Boards approval to impede upon the Zoning Code restrictions by 5-feet. He said that if the
variance were approved, the addition would increase the value of the property and substantially
reduce cooling costs.
Mr. Barlow explained that after collaborating with the adjoining property owners for possible
alternatives pertaining to safety, quality and obstruction, the homeowners in the area have agreed to
authorize the erection of the shade covering in writing. He explained that other alternatives were
examined, but that it was determined that the options were not feasible for the following reasons:
• A cover could be attached to the existing home near the easement, but the home would still be
exposed to the west facing afternoon sun.
• A smaller shade cover would not be practical or cosmetically attractive.
• A portable shade cover would not provide the adequate amount of shade for the area, nor would it
provide the necessary longevity needed for the improvement.
Member Lewis asked if the proposed structure would provide adequate shade for the home.
Mr. Barlow replied, "yes."
Mr. Barlow gave a brief outline for the proposed covering using the overhead projector.
Member Swan asked the applicant if his concern was with the heat outside of the home or the heat
that was emitted through the windows in the bedroom, or both.
Mr. Barlow explained that the heat was affecting the entire area.
Member Swan recommended using a drop vertical awning. He explained that the awning might
alleviate the problem rather than building a structure that was not contiguous to the home. Therefore,
he felt that a variance might not be necessary because there were other alternatives.
Member Done asked the applicant if he would be adverse to using a shading such as the vertical
awning.
Mr. Barlow explained that he was not adverse to the suggestion. However, he felt that a vertical
awning would obstruct the view from the bedroom window.
Dee Widero, Senior Zoning Inspector, reviewed the staff report. She reported that the applicant
requests to reduce the rear yard setback in an R-4 zoning district from 5-feet to 4-feet, and the
required distance between structures from 10-feet to 8-feet. She explained that the extra shade would
provide coverage for the rear northwest portion of the backyard. She reported that the applicant has
submitted with his request for variance a letter from Laura Lann, Lot 34, Sean and Valerie Patmore,
Lot 31 and Penny Ulmer, Lot 28, which states that they have no objection to the proposal or the
encroachment.
Ms. Widero explained that if the structure were approved, it would be fourteen foot in length by ten
feet wide and 10-feet high. She explained that the detached accessory structure must meet a minimum
distance of 10-feet between it and the main building. She explained that the proposed shade cover
07/24/01 Minute, Board of Adjustment 3
Regular Session
would be 8-feet from the main building leaving the rear year setback reduced from the required 5-feet
to 4-feet.
Staff finding of facts:
• The special circumstances or conditions (refer to Assessor's Record Map) are due to the
topography, and location of lot and homes surrounding (lot 30) the subject property. Lot 34
(parcel 543) the home sits forward leaving approximately 100 feet of open area to the rear of that
parcel. Lot 28 (parcel 537) lies approximately 15-feet lower that lot 30, the owner of lot 28 will
not have a view of Mr. Barlow's addition,because he sits much lower than lot 30.
• The applicant or owner did not create the special circumstance or conditions.
• The authorizing of this variance request will allow the homeowner to enjoy his home, with the
shade cover protecting his home from the effects of the afternoon sun.
• The immediate surrounding homeowners have no objection to this proposal.
Vice Chairman Adler asked Mr. Dudley, the Town Attorney for clarification of what constitutes
"substantial property rights."
Mr. Dudley explained that, "the only way I can clarify that phrase is by giving an example, but the
determination of what a substantial property right is really within the sound discretion of this board.
In my opinion, and my opinion only, a substantial property right would be a property right where that
you may prevent a significant use of the property. Example: You couldn't use the back yard. That's
as close as I can come to a definition of substantial property rights."
Vice Chairman Adler asked the applicant if he had any additional information that he would like to
share with the Board.
Mr. Barlow explained that he has taken extreme and meticulous thought as to how the landscaping for
the small area would be done.
Vice Chairman Adler opened the public hearing. There being no speakers, the public hearing was
closed.
MOTION: Member Swan moved to APPROVE Case No. OV10-01-05, a request to reduce the rear
yard setback from the required 5-feet to 4-feet, and the required 10-feet between main building and
accessory structure. Member Done SECONDED the motion.
Discussion: Member Swan stated that"property rights"was a very loose term, which could be
interpreted in many ways. But, he believed that the homeowner had the right to provide the qualities
necessary for a comfortable living space; and he felt that the addition would not be detrimental to any
of the adjoining homeowners in the area.
Vice Chairman Adler inquired that if a variance were granted, would it be granting "special
privileges."
Mr. Dudley explained that the decision would be within the sound discretion of the Board. He said
that based upon the description that the applicant has provided that there were some significant
differences between the applicant's property and the properties facing the same direction. He stated
07/24/01 Minute, Board of Adjustment 4
Regular Session
that if the information submitted by the applicant is correct, there would not be a granting of"special
privileges."

2. CASE NO. OV10-01-07 ROBERT C. ANDERSON D.C. (ANDERSON CHIROPRACTIC)
REQUESTS A VARIANCE TO RELOCATE AN EXISTING APPROVED ENTRANCE
SIGN, WITH A REDUCTION FROM THE REQUIRED 5 FEET SETBACK FROM THE
LOT LINE TO A ZERO (0 FEET) FRONT YARD SETBACK. SUBJECT PROPERTY IS
LOCATED AT 8700 NORTH ORACLE ROAD, ORO VALLEY, ARIZONA 85737
Vice Chairman Adler swore in the witness that was intending to testify.
Dr. Robert Anderson of Anderson Chiropractic, explained that the company requests a zoning
variance that would allow the placement of the entry sign in an unobstructed position on the lot. He
then proceeded to review the site using power point and videotape.
Dr. Anderson read the following letter for the record.
To: Oro Valley City Council
From: Helen C. Roach, 818-0535
Re: Current signage for Dr. Bob Anderson's Office
I have been a patient of Dr. Anderson's for about 20 months, coming for an adjustment biweekly.
During that time I have always found it difficult to find his office because the signage is so low to the
ground and set back so far that it is not visible until my car is upon it. Quite quickly I discovered that
the only way to find his office was to look for the American flag which fly's at the business just to the
north of his. I have sent many new patients to him telling them to "look for the flag because you can't
see the sign". To my dismay, I discovered that the flag now is missing. (I don't know if it will be
replaced or not in the future.) The posted speed limit on that part of Oracle Road is 50 m.p.h., the
actual speed seems to be significantly higher. With this kind of speed and the large amount of traffic
on Oracle Road, it is very dangerous to approach his office because his signage is not visible until the
last minute. Therefore, it is imperative that some type of adjustment be made to the signage to
increase visibility.
Thank you,
Helen C. Roach
Dr. Anderson explained that the proposed relocation of the sign would allow for visibility from both
directions on Oracle Road and would alleviate confusion with regard to the location of the business.
07/24/01 Minute, Board of Adjustment 5
Regular Session
He added that this would also enable the public to safely reach the facility without disrupting the
traffic flow.
Dee Widero, Senior Zoning Inspector, reviewed the staff report. She explained that Anderson
Chiropractic requests a variance to reduce the setback of their(Enterprise Car Rental shares this sign)
permanent Office/Employment Center Entry-way Sign from 5-feet to 0 feet. She reported that the
OVZCR Sec. 12-502.D.4 requires a minimum 5-feet from the property line.
Anderson Chiropractic and Enterprise Car Rental are requesting a variance for the following reasons:
1. The required buffer wall for landscaping is blocking 30% of the sign.
2. Vegetation is obscuring the sign.
3. The shape of the lot is an odd shape; with the front half of the lot parking, landscape and walls.
The building is setback to the east rear of the lot with a 6-foot wall to the south, further blocking
anyone sighting the sign or building from north bound traffic on Oracle Road.
Ms. Widero reported that at the time of the report preparation, staff received a call from Mr. Mac
Gregor, who was in support of the sign being relocated and placed at a zero setback for safety
purposes; there were no other comments submitted regarding the matter.
Ms. Widero reported that the site was a 13,116 square foot parcel located approximately 1/4 mile south
of Hardy Road on the eastside of Oracle Road. She said that the property is a small triangle shaped
parcel that lies 150 feet from the centerline of Oracle Road. She explained that the applicant is
proposing to relocate the existing sign to the entryway at the property line; there are no other proposed
changes to the existing sign; the sign meets the Zoning Code in all other respects.
Staff Finding of Facts:
• Special circumstances were self imposed or created by the owner or applicant. The current owner
acquired the structure and parking lot. They have not been changed from the previous use (a 7-11
Market).
• To relocate the sign would place it at the entry as required by OVZCR Section 12-502-D2. The
existing sign can not be relocated to the entry without either encroaching in the parking area or the
setbacks.
• The visibility of the business is low; the lot is on an angle in relation to Oracle Road and the
buildings are set to the rear of the lot.
• The authorizing of the variance would improve visibility and safety to the citizens and customers
of the establishment.
Vice Chairman Adler asked for clarification that the sign ordinance did not have landscaping
requirements.
Bryant Nodine, the Planning and Zoning Administrator replied, "that is correct. The sign ordinance
does not deal with landscaping at all, except to allow planters around the sign. "
Vice Chairman Adler asked what was the purpose of the wall.
Mr. Nodine explained that the wall was actually a requirement of the Code to screen the asphalt in the
parking lot. He reviewed the site diagram for the proposed setback. He explained that the sign could
07/24/01 ivlinute, Board of Adjustment 6
Regular Session
meet the Zoning Code requirements if it were placed 5-feet back from the property line at the
entryway, but that the applicant was looking for greater visibility for the reasons given.
Member Swan suggested repositioning the sign, as it relates not to the end of the wall, but back from
the right-of-way.
Dr. Anderson explained that it would be less visible than the existing sign location, because of the
large mesquite tree located at the entryway of the SunnySlope Townhomes. He explained that to
relocate the sign within the easement 5-feet setback, would place the sign directly along side of the
tree.
Member Swan asked if the mesquite tree was on the Anderson property or on the SunnySlope
property.
Dr. Anderson replied, "no sir it is not. It's SunnySlope's."
Member Done expressed concern regarding safety issues. She explained that while driving north on
Oracle Road, and driving under the speed limit, that it was difficult to locate the business. She
suggested that the existing wall could be used as a height enhancement.
Vice Chairman Adler swore in the witness that was intending to testify.
Jerrilyn Billings, Planning Technician, explained that staff had been working with Dr. Anderson
extensively for possible improvements with regard to safety and visibility. She reported that after
reviewing all aspects for the relocation of the sign, that by placing the sign at the 0-foot setback would
be the most logical solution.
Member Lewis asked if by moving the sign closer to the street, if it would look out of place compared
to the existing signs located along Oracle Road.
Ms. Billings explained that there might be some variation in appearance because of the angle of
Oracle Road and the landscaping in the area, but there would be no dramatic effect.
Mr. Dudley explained that as a result of the relocation of the sign, the Town might conclude that the
sign would need to be relocated due to traffic considerations and sight visibility. He suggested that
the Board include a condition regarding the future relocation of the sign. He also reported that he
anticipated Oracle Road to be expanded in the future from 4-lanes to 6-lanes. He felt that if such a
condition were not included, the Town might be responsible for the cost to relocate the sign. Vice
Chairman Adler agreed.
MOTION: Member Lewis moved to APPROVE OV10-01-07, request to relocate and reduce the
required front yard setback from 5-feet to 0-feet from the property line of an existing approved sign,
with the condition that has been outline by Mr. Dudley. (Condition: If a future relocation of the sign is
required due to expansion of Oracle Road, the cost of the relocation shall be borne by the property
owner.) Member Done SECONDED the motion.
Discussion: Vice Chairman Adler explained that he considered a sign as identification and not
advertising. He explained that as a participant in the creation of the sign ordinance, the issue avoided
specific reference to the visibility of a sign. He explained that in other words, there was no assurance
07/24/01 ivlinute, Board of Adjustment 7
Regular Session
that a sign needs to have or guarantee visibility in any direction. He explained that the reason he
remembered the discussion was because there was considerable debate regarding the issue.
Therefore, he intended to vote against the motion because he did not think that the conditions on the
property required the sign to be relocated. He explained that if in fact, the Board accepted the idea
that the sign was used for identification, he felt that there was other media available to the advertiser
that could direct the public to the business location. He explained that he did not believe that the
purpose of the sign would be to draw people to the business location, and hoped that it would never
serve that purpose.

4. CASE NO. OV10-01-06 JEFFREY AND PAMELA NUNN,ARE APPEALING THE
DECISION OF THE PLANNING AND ZONING ADMINISTRATOR OF MAY 17, 2001,
WHICH PERMITTED THE ISSUANCE OF A BUILDING PERMIT WITHOUT THE
DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD APPROVAL, FOR LOT 17 OF TANGERINE
HEIGHTS SUBDIVISION. THE SUBJECT PROPERTY IS LOCATED AT 12300 NORTH
TALL GRASS DRIVE, ORO VALLEY,ARIZONA 85737
Dan Dudley, Town Attorney, explained that the issue that was before the Board was an appeal of a
decision that was made by a Town official which granted a building permit to C&C Construction
Company. He explained that the Boards' deliberation should be limited to the following:
• Which specific decision was actually being appealed?
• Was the appeal done in a timely manner in light of the decision?
• Did the official have the authority to make such a decision?
• Was the official consistent with the State Law and Town Ordinance?
• Whether or not the decision was an abusive stretch.
He further explained that the required vote to overturn the decision by the Zoning Administrator
and/or Building Official in this case requires a majority of the Board, which would be 3 members.
Vice Chairman Adler swore in the witness that was intending to testify.
Jeffrey Nunn, 12318 North Tall Grass Drive, distributed an additional packet of information to the
Board and staff. He explained that this case has been a very confusing and frustrating process. He felt
that hopefully the documents submitted and his testimony would reveal that the process used to obtain
the permit, to build the home on Lot 17 was flawed. He stated that the authority that granted the
permit was excessive.
Mr. Nunn gave the following reasons why C&C Construction should not be allowed to build the home
on Lot 17:
• Believes that this could possibly be a discriminatory practice
07/24/01 iviinute, Board of Adjustment 8
Regular Session
• The 5600 square foot home was being built without the approval of the Development Review
Board or Homeowners Association architectural approval
• Has paid a$29,000 premium for the views, which was one of the very highest premiums paid due
to the view.
• The purchase of Lot 18 intended to be a dream home consisting of 3380 square feet with a dream
view. He was also told that his home would be the largest model as it pertained to the square
footage.
• Was lead to believe that the home located on Lot 17 would not obstruct the views.
• Believes that the permits submitted are false and were not consistent with the original plans
• The home in no way resembles the "Catalina B" model home (as shown in Exhibits #2), and
believes that the Planning and Zoning Department has been mislead.
• The "Catalina B"model home does not come with a casita or 7 bedrooms.
Vice Chairman Adler asked the applicant what was the error he felt the Planning Administrator had
made in terms of the process and abuse of authority.
Mr. Nunn explained that he believed that the Planning Administrator allowed the permit to be
submitted without the pre-approval of the Development Review Board (DRB). He stated that he was
curious to know which criteria were used to determine the approval of the permit.
Vice Chairman Adler explained that as confusing as the situation may have been, it was not an
abuse of authority. He asked if the appeal was for the decision made to issue the building permit.
Mr. Nunn explained that the main issue was that the DRB's approval should have been required. He
stated that he also had concerns with the grading limit change. He felt that there should have been
some due process regarding the grading limit change because he should have been notified about the
modifications; and felt the home was not compatible with the other homes in the surrounding area.
He explained that he only asked that the homebuilder take the appropriate measures and follow
procedure like everyone else. Therefore, he requested that the permit be revoked.
Vice Chairman Adler informed the applicant that his point was well taken and he understood his
concerns.
Bryant Nodine, Planning and Zoning Administrator reiterated that the Nunn's were appealing the
administrative decision that allowed issuance of a permit for Lot 17 in Tangerine Heights, without
architectural approval of the home by the DRB. He explained that some of the facts are that the
Nunn's reside on Lot 18, in a 2200 square foot home. He explained that a 2300 square foot home
would be placed on Lot 18. He explained that Tangerine Heights was a subdivision which was zoned
R1-20 and R1-36 and the subject site is an R1-20 Zone. He explained that the homes for these lots can
be submitted individually or can be submitted as models and that the applicant can make a one-time
revision to the model.
Mr. Nodine explained that Section 3-301 of the Zoning Code is applicable in this case. He explained
that based on this section of the Zoning Code, staff does not send architectural plan for R1-20 and
larger lot subdivisions to DRB for review. (Section 3-301 —the Development Review Board shall
07/24/01 minute, Board of Adjustment 9
Regular Session
review all developments other than R1-144, R1-43, R1-36, and R1-20 Districts, which are not subject
to overlay.)
Mr. Nodine reported that C&C Construction had submitted an application for DRB approval of the
model in the subdivision and was approved by DRB. He explained that C&C Construction submitted
the application for a one-time revision within this subdivision and that the Planning and Zoning staff
forwarded these applications to the DRB for approval,but that per code was an error. He explained
that the error has been recognized. Mr. Nunn has been refunded the DRB fee for having to send the
model one-time revision to the DRB.
Pertinent Facts:
• The Nunn's reside on Lot 18 a 22,090- square foot lot in the Tangerine Heights Subdivision.
• The subject lot (Lot 17) is a 22,698 square foot lot just to the south of Lot 18. A house is under
construction, frame and sheathed, on the lot.
• Tangerine Heights is a custom built subdivision, zoned R1-20 &R1-36, recorded April 8, 1999.
C&C Construction is the builder.
• Section 3-301 of the Zoning Code is applicable to this case. Based on this section staff does not
send architectural plans for R1-20 and larger-lot subdivisions to the DRB for review unless an
overlay district could affect the design of the homes, or unless (in accordance with various
sections in Article 6) the homes are two story homes.
• Applicability— Sec.301 The Development Review Board shall review al developments other
thatn R1-144, R1-43, R1-36, and R1-20 Districts which are not subject to overlay.
• C&C Construction, having built primarily in Desert Vista Subdivision, which is zoned R1-7, did
not realize that DRB approval was not required. They submitted an application for DRB approval
for the models in the whole subdivision, and subsequently, they submitted revision to DRB for
any of the models where they proposed a change in the front elevation (these are termed"one-time
revisions.")
• C&C Construction submitted three applications for one-time revisions within this subdivision.
Planning and Zoning staff forwarded these to the DRB for approval. Over forty other homes
approved within the subdivision were not submitted to DRB.
• The Zoning Code's design guidelines encourage diversity and character of neighborhoods by
varying setbacks, building elevation setbacks, building elevations, and architectural treatments.
All zones have development standards. In Tangerine Heights lots 1-50 are zoned R1-20, with a
maximum building height of 2 stories and 18 feet. Setbacks are, front 30 feet, side 15 feet, and
rear 30 feet. Also a maximum grading limit was placed on the plat for this subdivision, which is
12,000 square feet (administrative approval is possible for up to 15,000). There are no limits as to
the square footage or size of the home as long as the other standards are met.
• The plan for Lot 17 meets all setbacks and other standards of the Zoning Code and the plat.
The area graded on Lot 17 is less than 12,000 square feet.
In conclusion, he explained that the Zoning Code does not require DRB approval for architecture in
the Tangerine Heights subdivision.
Member Swan inquired that if the builder submits a certain number of model home for approval, and
additional changes were made to the home that had already been approved, what would be the
requirement from a processing standpoint.
07/24/01 ivlinute, Board of Adjustment 10
Regular Session
Mr. Nodine explained that if home is located in a subdivision that requires DRB review, those homes
would be brought back before the DRB for consideration.
Member Lewis asked if there was a procedure to follow when a project has been completed and the
error has made by the staff.
Mr. Dudley explained that not only could staff correct their mistakes but also he felt that it would be
the obligation of staff to correct any mistakes that were made.
Vice Chairman Adler expressed that he would like to get the matter of the grading limits addressed.
He asked if at any point, there had been a practice to notify the existing residents of the change in the
grading limits.
Mr. Nodine replied, "once, because of a similar case that had been brought before the Town Council."
Vice Chairman Adler asked if this was a matter of procedure now to notify residences of grading limit
changes.
Mr. Nodine replied, "yes, it is."
Member Lewis asked that when the permit was granted, was there anything out of the ordinary that
needed to be address outside of the normal paper work.
Ms. Widero replied, "no."
Member Swan asked what would be the ramifications if Mr. Nodine were to be found at fault for
processing the application for Lot 17, as it relate to the construction process.
Mr. Dudley stated that a stay could be automatic or could be requested. But, he could not clarify
which would be used at this point. He explained that the court would issue the stay and the Town
would effectively execute the stay for the construction of the home.
Mr. Dudley clarified for the record that he had requested that C&C Construction discontinue the
construction on the project pending a discussion from the Board of Adjustment.
Vice Chairman Adler opened the public hearing.
Vice Chairman Adler swore in the witness that was intending to testify.
Barbara Murray, 4804 North Camino Luz, stated that she was a real estate sales person who has been
associated with C&C Construction Company over the pass few years, and felt that the company made
a very good product. Although, she was under the impression that a home could not be constructed
any larger than 3400 square feet. She also pointed out that each home had been situated on the lot to
ensure privacy from the adjacent homes.
In answer to a question from Member Swan, Mr. Dudley explained that a stay would be granted at the
discretion of the Superior Court. He further explained that the stay would not be automatic but would
require an application for stay by the interested party.
07/24/01 iviinute, Board of Adjustment 11
Regular Session
Vice Chairman Adler swore in the witness that was intending to testify.
George Feulner, 262 North Main Ave, the attorney representing C&C Construction
Co. explained that much of what had been told to the Board has been inaccurate. He explained that he
would not take the time to point out the inaccuracies if he did not believe that the only issue was
whether the Planning Administrator should be consistent with the law. He felt that the planning
administrator had clearly and irrefutably complied with the Zoning Code. He explained that his
concern was that the Board had heard things that may sway them emotionally and gave the following
reasons why the appeal should be denied:
• The Braunreiter's home is not 5600 square feet but is 4400 square feet. He explained that this
pertained only to the living area of the home; as compared to the Nunn's home, which was 3400
square fee of living area, therefore there was only a discrepancy of 1000 square feet.
• Tangerine Height consists of 50 lots and 22 homes have been constructed. Five homes in addition
to the Braunreiter's home are of comparable size. Therefore, the size of the Braunriter's home was
not unusual for the subdivision.
He explained that as far as the court case was concern, the Nunn's attempted to stop the construction
of the home and lost. He explained that if there had been any violation of any law, rule, ordinance or
covenants, conditions and restrictions with respect to construction of the home, then there would have
been a reason for the court to stop construction. There was not.
Vice Chairman Adler closed the public hearing.
Mr. Nunn explained that he had also done an analysis of the square footage of the homes in the area,
and the average square footage to date is 2956 square feet. He stated that he was still a little confused
with some of the semantics between a custom-built subdivision and a custom graded subdivision. He
explained that by looking at the exhibits for the "Catalina B"model home, there was not any
correlation what-so-ever between the information written on the building permit and what was
actually submitted and being constructed. He stated that he did not believe that there was a permit for
the home because it was not truly a"Catalina B"model home.
Vice Chairman Adler stated that the applicant's point has been well taken. He asked that with regard
to the reference to models by name, if the building permit were issued for the model by name or was it
referenced in an another generic way.
Mr. Nodine stated that there were 2 ways that a model home is referenced by: (1) the model is
submitted originally as a model plan and is reviewed as a model plan. Then placed in a hanging file.
(2) An individual lot using the model plan can reference the model on the permit.
Vice Chairman Adler clarified that this would not necessarily tie the buyer to the specification of the
original model.
Mr. Nodine agreed and explained that the buyer was allowed to do a one-time revision to change the
model.
Member Swan read the following paragraph: "Section 3-301 of the Zoning Code was applicable to
this case. Base on this section staff does not send architectural plans for R1-20 and larger-lot
07/24/01 minute, Board of Adjustment 12

subdivisions to the DRB for review." He stated that based upon that statement and believing that it is
accurate and true, he would move to deny the variance.
MOTION: Member Swan moved to DENY Case No. OV10-01-06 finding that the Planning
Administrator's decision was not an error. Member Lewis SECONDED the motion.

Discussion: Vice Chairman Adler recommended that the following items be placed on the next
meeting agenda for discussion.
• The Board of Adjustment should take an opportunity to comment on the revised Volunteer
Application Form.
• The Board of Adjustment receive the Planning and Zoning and Council meeting minutes, so that
the Board is kept appraised of what is in the pipeline and what is actually occurring in the Town.
• The Board of Adjustment should consider requesting that a member of the Board of Adjustment
be included in the Capital Improvement Plan process.
• The Board should be aware of the Oro Valley merchandise available for purchase and strongly
encourage the board member to acquire a shirt with the logo. He explained that this might enable
the board members to receive more public comment and input while in the field.
Member Lewis asked what was the revision being made with the Volunteers Application Form.
Vice Chairman Adler explained that the Government Review Task Force was currently reviewing the
application form to try and get more information from the volunteers, so that the process of screening
and interviewing was more precise. He said that the following topics were under review and
consideration:
• Establishing a job description so that the applicant would have an understanding of what to expect
when applying for the position.
• Questions for the interviewing process and who should actually conduct the interviews.
• The process of applying term limits.
• The process of evaluating the volunteers during the course of their term.
He reported that the Government Review Task Force was nearing a point where the report would be
submitted to Council.
Member Lewis asked if there was going to be any training sessions in the near future for boards and
commissions members.
07/24/01 iviinute, Board of Adjustment 13

Mr. Nodine stated that he would contact the Department of Commerce regarding training session
seminars.
Mr. Dudley asked if the Board members found the Primer beneficial. He stated that he was also open
to suggestions.
Vice Chairman Adler stated the specifically he wanted be sure that the Board understood whether the
5 Criteria were in fact legally binding as standards, or whether they are in fact criteria that only
needed to be addressed. He expressed that he also had concerns with the making of a motion and
whether the motion needed to specifically reference the standard or criteria that were met or not met.
He stated that the Primer was extremely helpful and thanked Mr. Dudley for providing the
information.
