Hope For The Neighbors Of Athem Equity Development

At the March 19, 2008 Oro Valley Council meeting, the attorney for Athem Equity Development intimidated enough members of the then council, that they voted to approve their development plan.

What that meant was 36' high office buildings almost literally in the backyards of some of the folks in Rancho Vistoso Neighborhood 2, that would have obscured their premium lot views of the Catalina Mountains.

Well----hopefully that may not happen. You see, for whatever the reason, the 15 acre parcel just east of Vistoso Village Dr and just south of many residential homes is now up for sale.

We can only hope that the buyer of this parcel will be more concerned for the neighbors, many of who would have seen major depreciation of their home value as a result of Athem's Development Plan.

All the neighbors in Neighborhood Two are absolutely ecstatic about this news. Anthem planned to have trash bins at our main entrance and 40' tall buildings(four of them) lined up behind homes in this subdivision. Mr. Ford hired Schubart and Stubbs Legal Firm to intimidate Town Council. He reneged on his promises to the neighbors, and we will be thrilled to see him gone--far, far away!
