Riverfront Park play area refurbishment progress on time while Aquatic Center reopening delayed
Town Staff continues to make progress on replacing the surface of the Riverfront Park play area. The area is scheduled to be reopened after February 3. Things are not progressing as well with the maintenance and repair activities at the Aquatic Center. "The facility's improvement project has experienced delays
related to the arrival of equipment necessary to the completion of the project. Due to these delays the project timeline has been extended and a new reopening date of Monday, February 13th is what we will be targeting."(Source: Parks and Recreation Bulletin)

New Car Wash for Village Center considered next week
Next Wednesday, The Oro Valley Town Council will consider an application for use of an area adjacent to ""In N’ Out Burger". The area is in the Oro Valley Village Center (aka Oro Valley Marketplace). The request was unanimously approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission. As there is an existing queuing problem at "In N’ Out", town staff added a provision for approval requiring the reconfiguration of the existing "In N’ Out" drive prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy for the car wash.
