David Andrews has our respect for the job he does as Oro Valley Town Manager. Hopefully, with a new council we'll see even more & better changes in the way Oro Valley operates.
While it appears the existing council has been "flying by the seats of their pants," we expect more decisions from the new council based on fiscal responsibility.
There is an article in the May 14 Explorer noting that David is at odds with the police union concerning proposed pay raises. We expect fiscal responsibility will prevail.
“The basis of my recommendation is affordability,” Andrews said.

Last Thursday, May 22, I was at James Krieg Park walking my dog. There were two OV police cars in the parking lot, one on the West side and one on the East. I went up the the officer on the West side and asked him why they were there. He told me that someone had complained about an off-leash dog attacking another dog and he was there to observe. I commented that this would be difficult as he was facing the High School. He said that he was watching the students because it was Graduation Day and that several arrests had already been made. The officer in the East parking area spent a long time talking to a lady while in his car. Meanwhile, there were at least 6 dogs running off leash on the ballfields. Nothing was done to curtail this activity. Eventually, both officers drove off, neither officer got out of his vehicle.
Is this how our dilligent officers enforce the law?
