Night Work On Michigan Left Continues
Night construction of the Oracle and Ina intersection continued this week. We experienced it twice this week. It would be a good idea to avoid the intersection at night because traffic can be backed up as they continue to pave the intersection.
Beware Of Caller ID Spoofing
Caller ID spoofing is an illegal activity that allows a caller to masquerade as someone else by falsifying the number that appears on the recipient's caller ID display.

County To Put Off Bond Elections Until 2015 At The Earliest
County Administrator Chuck Huckleberry has concluded that a county bond issue, one filled with "dream" projects, is simply not feasible at this time.

Oro Valley Is, however, moving forward with a feasibility study of the incubator. The town has issued a request for proposal for the study. Sealed proposals will be received until September 27, 2013 at 4:00 pm.

If I recall correctly, Mayor Hiremath had not taken this O.V. course prior to his election. The other Council members had taken the course.
Has the Mayor taken this course during his term of office?
This would be a good requirement for anyone running for election in Oro Valley.
