Town Manager 2025 Recommended Budget out soon
Town Manager Wilkins and staff are putting the final touches on the 2024-25 town budget. It is a complicated effort, covering all of the town's ten plus funds. Look for the document to be available by the end of the month, followed by town council study sessions. Can't make the sessions? Don't worry.... we will.
Next Tuesday: "Financial Headwinds in the offing starting in 2026"; a focus on a precursor to the budget: The town's five year financial forecast of four key funds.
Join us on Friday April 26, 2024 for this exclusive event sponsored by the Friends of Pusch Ridge Golf.

Local group seeks "Performing Arts Center"
For years, the town has considered creating a performing arts center. In fact, it was one of the centerpieces in the original designs of Naranja Park. Several weeks ago, the town council, while considering changes to the town's Community and Economic Development Strategy, entertained audience cards. Members of the Oro Valley Theatre Company were in attendance. Council Member Mo Greene is a member of the theatre company board, 
along with Judi Rodman, the spouse of former Council Member Bill Rodman, and former council candidate Charlie Hurt.
Speaking at the meeting, Gene Abravaya (Theatre Company Board Member) noted: "The company deserves a home of its own--A place to perform, as well as all the other performing arts organizations in Oro Valley and the surrounding area." The council took no action.
