Meeting Date:11/05/2025 Presentation of the 28th Annual Oro Valley Community Academy Graduates Subject Presentation of the 28th Annual Oro Valley Community Academy Graduates Summary The purpose of this presentation is to recognize the graduates of the 28th Annual Oro Valley Community Academy class. This fun and highly interactive program covers Oro Valley's essential operations and services in the community. This year's program continued to emphasize the topics included in the community's next 10-year action plan, known as OV's Path Forward. During every class, the associated draft goals, policies, and actions for each topic were discussed and participants were encouraged to share additional thoughts online during the BIG Community Review of the draft plan. Several Town staff members presented and facilitated engaging exercises throughout the program. This year's class topics included: A view of Oro Valley today and into the future OV's Path Forward Town Finances Economic Development and Tourism Parks, Recreation, and Trails Development and Roadways Water Resource Planning and Water Conservation Public Safety and Town Court Every year, the classes evolve to reflect accurate and relevant information. This year, three new classes were added to address some of the priorities residents identified through the 10-year plan process and other community interests. This included classes about: Water conservation, including tips and methods that participants could implement at home OV Trails Connect, which gave participants an opportunity to comment on draft maps of unpaved trails, Vistoso Trails Nature Preserve, the Loop, and multi-use paths. Tourism, including discussions about Oro Valley's identity and opportunities to attract tourists Some other changes implemented this year to help tailor the program to the participants' interests, included: Understanding the questions or interests participants had about each topic, prior to the associated class. This allowed presenters to prepare accordingly and tailor their presentation to discuss what mattered most to participants. Providing feedback after each class to make improvements throughout the program. This allowed class facilitators to make changes throughout the program to ensure it remained engaging, accessible, and informative for participants. This year, 34 residents attended at least one class with 29 people attending multiple classes. This year's retention was the highest it has been in recent years, with 28 of the 29 participants on their way to meeting the program graduation requirements. The program continues to be offered both online and in-person, which allows more people to participate on a consistent basis. Classes are still ongoing and the finalized list of graduates will be presented at the November 5 Town Council meeting. In addition to providing residents with an inside look at Town departments and topics, Community Academy is also a recruitment tool to keep residents engaged in various Town efforts, boards, or commissions. In addition to attending the classes, participants were encouraged throughout the program to apply to a board/commission or get more involved with OV's Trails Connect or OV's Path Forward. Staff anticipates several will seize the opportunity to stay involved.

Meeting Date:11/05/2025 Requested by: David Gephart Submitted By:David Gephart, Finance Department:Finance SUBJECT: DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE ACTION TO TRANSFER CAPITAL FUND BUDGETED CONTINGENCY TO BE UTILIZED FOR THE PURCHASE AND IMPROVEMENTS OF THE NEW POLICE STATION AT 13101 N. ORACLE ROAD IN THE AMOUNT OF $5.45 MILLION RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Staff is recommending Town Council authorize a Capital Fund contingency transfer related to the purchase and necessary improvements of the new Police Administration facility at 13101 N. Oracle Road. Pursuant to Town financial policy 1-1 Annual Budget Process, Policy 4.0 states that contingency reallocation requests require Town Council approval. BACKGROUND OR DETAILED INFORMATION: Staff is recommending Town Council authorize a Capital Fund contingency transfer related to the purchase and necessary improvements of the new Police Administration facility at 13101 N. Oracle Road. Toward the end of the budget process for this current year, staff became aware of a possible opportunity to acquire an existing building for its new police headquarters. Because this was only a possibility at the time, staff included in the current year budget $4.5 million of additional contingency in the Capital Fund, bringing the total budgeted Contingency in that fund up to $6.5 million. Contingency is strictly a budgetary account that facilitates the movement (reallocation) of budget capacity into other accounts for use due to unforeseen needs. Such a reallocation requires Town Council approval pursuant to Town financial policies. The purchase of the facility has now been finalized and executed in the amount of $3,804,609, including all closing costs. There are additional repairs necessary, including HVAC replacements, exterior stucco repairs, and others as detailed below, which will be necessary to properly protect the building and prevent further interior damage moving forward. Staff is requesting reallocating $5.45 million of budgeted contingency to cover both the purchase and additional repairs needed. This would leave $1.05 million of contingency in the Capital Fund for capital needs other than the police headquarters. Anticipated costs to address the needs of the new building are as follows: Roofing - $400,0001. HVAC - $540,0002. Parapets & stucco - $200,0003. General building issues - $300,0004. Securing the building - $200,0005. Termite treatment - $5,5006. In all, the initial work to secure and protect the Town's asset is $1,645,500. Adding this amount to the purchase price would bring the Town initial total investment up to $5,450,109. Resources allocated for the new police headquarters purchase and improvements are as follows: Transfers-in from General Fund excess reserves included in FY26 budget - $4,500,000 Transfers-in from changing General Fund reserve policy from 30% to 25% - $2,500,000 (est.) Total initial allocation — $7,000,000 Remaining allocation — $1,549,891 FISCAL IMPACT: $5.45 million SUGGESTED MOTION: I MOVE to (APPROVE or DENY) a Capital Fund contingency reallocation in the amount of $5.45 million for the purchase and necessary improvements of the new police administration facility located at 13101 N. Oracle Road. Attachments No file(s) attached. Town Council Regular Session 2. Meeting Date:11/05/2025 Submitted By:Mike Standish, Town Clerk's Office Department:Town Clerk's Office SUBJECT: DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE ACTION TO AUTHORIZE AND PROCEED WITH NOTICING FOR A PROPOSED RATE INCREASE TO THE COMMERCIAL RENTAL TAX RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The purpose of this item is to authorize staff to bring an ordinance to Town Council on January 14, 2026, amending the Town tax code to include phasing in a new Commercial Rental Tax up to 2.5% and authorize public notices of such. In accordance with ARS 9-499.15(B)(2), the Town of Oro Valley is required to provide at least a sixty-day public notice before the date a proposed new tax is approved or rejected by the governing body. Subsection (3) of the same statute reads, "If the municipality proposes to increase the rate of an existing tax or fee on a business, provide written notice of the proposed increase, the schedule of the proposed increased tax or fee and the written report or data that supports the proposed increased tax or fee on the home page of the municipality's website at least sixty days before the date the proposed new rate is approved or rejected by the governing body of the municipality. Subsection (4) of the same statute states, "The notice shall include the date, time and place of the meeting of the governing body of the municipality in which the proposed new or increased tax or fee will be considered and a statement that a schedule of the proposed new or increased tax or fee that includes the amount of the tax or fee and a written report or data that supports the new or increased tax or fee is available on the municipality's website. The notice of intent shall be posted on the municipality's website at least fifteen days before the date the proposed new or increased tax or fee will be approved or rejected by the governing body of the municipality." ARS 9-499.15(C) states, "At least seventy-five days before the date a municipality proposes an ordinance to adopt or repeal a model or local option in the model city tax code, the municipality shall request from the department of revenue a list of all taxpayers within the municipality in the affected tax classification. At least sixty days before the date the proposed ordinance is approved or rejected by the governing body of the municipality, the municipality shall notify by mail all taxpayers in the affected tax classification of the proposed ordinance." As such, proposed timing of public noticing to comply with state law is as follows: No later than: Action: Completed October 31, 2025 Request list of affected taxpayers from ADOR X November 15, 2025 Post public notice and written report on Town website November 15, 2025 Send notices to affected taxpayers December 31, 2025 Post an additional public notice and written report on Town website, and distribute utilizing social media or other electronic communication tools January 14, 2026 Town Council Adoption/Rejection BACKGROUND OR DETAILED INFORMATION: In accordance with the Council-approved strategic plan, staff have been studying diversification of revenue sources to prevent deteriorating financial conditions over the next five years. In benchmarking our revenue sources with other surrounding communities in Southern Arizona, it became apparent that the Town of Oro Valley tax code does not currently allow for the collection of a Commercial Rental Tax, while the City of Tucson, Town of Marana, and Town of Sahuarita all charge a Commercial Rental Tax. Over the past several years, the Town has seen significant inflation in pavement preservation and public safety costs. Additionally, the Town's overall sales tax collections, which comprise the greatest percentage of Town operating revenues, have been flat. Further, much public outreach has been performed both at the resident and business level regarding a potential new Use Tax, Telecommunications Tax, and Commercial Rental Tax. To date, some concerns have been noted by staff regarding the adoption of a Commercial Rental Tax in terms of the potential impact it may have on businesses. As such, staff is recommending the Commercial Rental Tax have a phased-in implementation that occurs as follows: 1.0% - Beginning July 1, 2026 Additional 1.5% - Beginning July 1, 2028 This phasing approach to implementation should allow both businesses and residents time to adapt to the changing environment. FISCAL IMPACT: There is a minimal amount of postage associated with this item estimated to be $68. SUGGESTED MOTION: I Move to (Approve or Deny) directing staff to comply with all applicable noticing requirements to the public and affected businesses in accordance with ARS 9-499.15 regarding amending the Town Tax Code to facilitate phasing in a new Commercial Rental Tax.

In benchmarking our revenue sources with other surrounding communities in Southern Arizona, it became apparent that the Town of Oro Valley tax code currently includes a tax rate for the Telecommunications Tax of 0.0%, while the City of Tucson, Town of Marana, and Town of Sahuarita all charge a Telecommunications Tax, with Marana's tax being equivalent to what it charges for other utility-related revenue at 4.0%. Over the past several years, the Town has seen significant inflation in pavement preservation and public safety costs. Additionally, the Town's overall sales tax collections, which comprise the greatest percentage of Town operating revenues, have been flat. Further, much public outreach has been performed both at the resident and business level regarding a potential new Telecommunications Tax. To date, limited negative feedback or concerns have been noted by staff regarding the adoption of a Telecommunications Tax. FISCAL IMPACT: There is limited fiscal impact to this item for postage costs approximating $462. SUGGESTED MOTION: SUGGESTED MOTION: I Move to (Approve or Deny) directing staff to comply with all applicable noticing requirements to the public and affected businesses in accordance with ARS 9-499.15 regarding a proposed increase to the Town Telecommunications Tax.
