Describes methods that are used in order to prepare reserve design alternatives in the area of biological conservation. The report also provides a brief history of reserve design theory, and demonstrates how the principles of biological reserve design have been extended to the other Elements of the Sonoran Desert conservation plan.
We have an opportunity now that we have not had in the past 25 years to develop some comprehensive planning so that we can continue to enjoy the environmental amenities that make it so nice to live in Tucson. These species include not only the common one that we live with on a day to day basis, but also some of the rare species that most of us are not lucky enough to see (but still care about preserving).
This report discusses the history of conservation planning and how we got to where we are today with these regional scale, ecosystem level habitat conservation plans and other similar types of projects.
This memorandum is intended to provide an indication of why unregulated development offers so little benefit to the tax base by describing, briefly, the fiscal tax base impact of the unregulated lot split issue at the community and watershed level.

Pima County's level of service standards tend to be low compared to other jurisdictions and compared to benchmarking information. This is not a surprising result, given the County's expenditures per capita are far below those of county governments in other parts of the United States that are experiencing growth pressures. A concurrency management system will bring service levels in line with population demands.
