Oro Valley Reservoir
Why don’t we turn the Naranja City Site into a Reservoir and a park?

I’ve been thinking about this for some time now. I was taking pictures in the Naranja City Site a couple of months back when someone told me about a stork or crane that came almost every night to the pond. Pond? there’s a pond! Well not much of one, but there is a dam. So why not make it bigger and build a reservoir.
Which got me to thinking, we have all this talk about how there is/will be a water shortage. Why don’t we do what they do in other places; Build a Reservoir. Around it we can build a park and we could have fishing and boating in Oro Valley just like they do at the 14 acre Lakeside Park in Tucson, only much bigger. Now how cool is this for an idea.
Oro Valley needs water, why not store it in a Reservoir?
I’ll bet it would be easier to get a bond issue passed for a Reservoir and a park than just a park.
Anybody else like this idea?
