The Oro Valley Community Academy provided exceptional insight into how our Town operates. The detailed explanations of municipal functions and the opportunity to meet the dedicated staff who keep our Town running smoothly made this program invaluable. Meeting these public servants in person was a highlight of the experience. I strongly encourage residents and business owners in Oro Valley to participate in this program – it offers a unique opportunity to understand what makes our great Town work. The Community Academy demonstrates the commitment to transparency and community engagement that makes Oro Valley special.
