The Town of Oro Valley has launched the community engagement process for its next 10-year plan, OV’s Path Forward. This community-driven plan will reflect the community’s goals, policies, and measurable actions for public safety, environment, parks, water, development, housing, employment, and more.
Residents, business owners, and the entire community are encouraged to participate in this process by joining the online discussion at OVPathForward.com or participating in community events at local shops and events.

The Town is asking residents to answer the following questions:
- What do you like best about Oro Valley?
- What do you think OV’s most significant challenges will be?
- What should Oro Valley be known for?
Your responses will shape the community’s vision and values for Oro Valley’s future.
“The community-based process of developing a general plan is how we turn the community’s vision into reality since the plan becomes our playbook for the next ten years,” said Mayor Joe Winfield at the annual State of the Town Address. “Your ideas are important to us. We invite you to weigh in and be part of planning what’s next for Oro Valley.”
This process was last completed ten years ago, and the Town has worked hard to fulfill the vision articulated in the 2016 “Your Voice, Our Future” Plan. To date, the Town has completed, maintained, or is currently working on 96 percent of the actions in that plan, with four percent remaining to be evaluated or prioritized in the next three years.
“The General Plan is our ‘true north’ because it is informed and shaped by the citizens,” Mayor Winfield said. “We will leverage the momentum of our success with the 2016 plan to propel us into our next decade.”
