At the Oro Valley Town Council meeting on the evening of Feb 7, 2007, many residents living in the neighborhood of Rancho Vistoso spoke in opposition to a motion passed by the Oro Valley Town Council on November 1, 2006 to allow a memorial chapel in their area. Little did they know that the chapel would include a crematorium!
It is intriguing that the agenda item, OV12.05.35, that was voted on was "A request for a development Plan for The Vistoso Memorial Chapel" with no reference to a Crematorium.
