- 33 Parking Spaces -
- Building footprint
- Detention basin

Jason Kuklinski, with Norris Design, representing the applicant as the Landscape Architect for the project, presented the following:

- Landscape Bufferyards
- Shaded Walkways
- Two courtyards 
- Low water use and native landscape materials 

Bill Adler, Oro Valley resident, commented regarding the Conceptual Site Plan. Use has been approved as far as zoning; all of the conversation has been about the landscaping, however he  would like to know about the facility itself. What services will the facility be providing for their residents? He is concerned because there is no discussion regarding the building itself.

Larry Kinkaid, Oro Valley resident, stated his major concern was the cut through traffic. Villa Balboa streets are private and maintained by their neighborhood. Mr. Kinkaid then reviewed the retention basins construction and their reliability. He will be requesting meetings with staff.

Stan Lewen, Oro Valley resident, commented on the traffic and the left turn onto Oracle Rd.  His concern was that there would be a tendency for people to use the Villa Balboa streets to avoid the left turn on Oracle. Desert Sky doesn't have a traffic signal, therefore the traffic would increase.  He was also concerned with the retention basins water and bug problems, and treatments for insect control.   Mr. Lewen questioned the use of the sidewalks for the residents of the facility.

MOTION: A motion was made by Richard Eggerding, Member and seconded by Kit Donley, Member to Recomend Approval of the Oracle Vista Memory Care Facility Conceptual Site Plan, based on the findings that the proposed design is in substantial conformance with the Design Standards and Design Principles, subject to the conditions on Attachment 1.
