The P & Z meeting that was 4PM and changed to 6PM is now ---once again 4PM.
It's on Arroyo Grande.
Sorry for the confusion---but it's not easy when changes are made by the town.

What Is Your Biggest Concern As It Pertains To Oro Valley?
We have a number of issues that are of concern to many of us in Oro Valley, as well as our neighbors.
We would ask our bloggers to tell us which concerns them the most, and why. If you wish, you can rate your concerns from biggest to least. Here goes.
1) My biggest concern, as a result of a previous council's actions, is the fact that Oro Valley is giving Vestar $23.2 million of our future sales tax revenue, and we're getting a "strip mall" anchored by Wal-Mart.
2) My biggest concern is that Mayor Loomis may get his way and Oro Valley will initiate a pre-annexation agreement with the State Land Trust for Arroyo Grande, without any determination as to where the water will come from, where the traffic will go, how the infrastructure will be paid for, and what the results may be should the voter initiative be approved that will diminish the acreage by about 68%?
3) Now that I know there is a toxic dump not too far to our north and there is a potential for the ground water to be contaminated, my biggest concern is the Falcon Valley Dump Site as it pertains to potential future development.
4) My biggest concern is that the Naranja Park site will go to the voters and be approved resulting in a property tax.
5) Anything else.

Wal-Mart To Revamp Its Logo
One of our readers emailed the USA Today article on Wal-Mart. Below are his comments about this "wonderful" news. We hope the Development Review Board gets a say on whether this new logo meets Oro Valley standards----or will it be as ugly as their roof as it now sits at the OV Marketplace.

Hi,
I was reading Monday's edition of USA TODAY, and our good neighbor, Wal-Mart is getting a make over. This fall Wal-Mart will do away with the annoying plain white logo and replace it with a pleasant orange and white logo! Although they have not shown it to the media yet one can only wonder what it really looks like. Hope you're excited as I am! The fallowing is a link to the USA TODAY article.
Regards,
Pete S (I deleted last name)
