The town is evaluating a private development project (Case #: OV17027220) that will have a major impact on Oracle Road and El Conquistador Way. It is a request for rezoning of 25 acres on the Northeast and Southeast corners.

The rezoning is for neighborhood commercial, senior care and multi-family uses. The property owner is Humberto Lopez of HSL Properties.

Yes, the same HSL that funds the campaigns of the current council members is making this request. Yes, it's the same HSL that sold the money-sucking 45 hole golf club to the town of Oro Valley.

The first neighborhood meeting to present this request was held on December 13. Takebackov was there to capture the fireworks. Watch and listen to residents speak. They are not happy campers!

Why this matters to you
This project will add yet more congestion to an already congested Oracle Road.

Finally, ask yourself:  "Cui Bono?"
