Residents Urged: "Complete The Your Voice Survey" Before Week's End

Oro Valley residents have a week to complete the survey on "Your Voice, Our Future." This is Oro Valley's first outreach step to involve residents in the development of the 2015 General Plan Update. After next week, the survey will close. Number crunching will begin.

The survey covers a variety of questions including: How can the town become a more complete competitor? How important is it to you to maintain a focus on low crime and focus on community safety? How important is it to protect Oro Valleys scenic beauty,  natural resources and environment?   How should Oro Valley manage growth and maintain high design standards?

These an other questions were also posed at a series of "pie" gatherings, where residents engaged in lively discussion.  In return, we got pie!

We attended this past Saturday's gathering.  Mayor Hiremath and Council Members Zinkin, Hornat and waters were there, together with David William, Oro Valley head town planner, and others responsible for driving the plan's development.

David observed to us that the town's planners will use the results of the survey to develop the guiding principles (statements) that will be the overall guide to the detail planning required.

It is important that all residents "weigh in".  Let the town know what you think.  Visit Your Voice to take the survey.

I looked at the survey. Why do we, as residents of Oro Valley, have to sign in to provide our opinion?

Great questionnaire. I'd suggest using SoGoSurvey's online survey software the next time.
