Come support your local businesses in Oro Valley July 7th, Council Chambers

Among the many issues in Oro Valley is the wall sign issue for businesses.  On July 7th at approximately 6:15 pm at 11000 N La Canada the town council will be requesting an approval for an amendment  to the Oro Valley Zoning Code.  The amendment will permit wall signs to be illuminated until 10pm or to be truned off immediately after closing which ever is later.   Many businesses feel, and the local chamber of commerce supports them, that they should be allowed to have their signs illuminated from DUSK to DAWN.  It is like most advertising, even if the store is not open they want their name out there for recognition.  The lights still have to meet code so they are dark sky friendly. And, they want to have the same rights as their national competition who are often able to stay open more hours a day than the local business owner.  IF you can spend an hour to support the local businesses come to the chamber meeting.  What is good for local business is probably good for your businss too.   Let freedom ring, Happy Fourth of July.
