Dr. Mary Ann Bolser, non-resident but a Oro Valley business owner, stated she has a couple of issues the Board should be aware of. 

- She had problems applying for business loan, initially not approved because the appraiser did not believe the fee that she would incur by Oro Valley should be taken into consideration, adding $40,000 to the cost.
- The tower is not a very nice design feature and reminds her of a gun turret.  She was told to live with it because it would be difficult to get any other changes approved by the Design Review Board.
