    Here are ways you can dispose of some of the items not accepted at this event:

    • Add kitty litter or sawdust to latex paint to dry it out and dispose with regular trash; if you can remove the dried paint from the can, please recycle the can.
    • Prescription drugs can be taken to the Sedona Police Department lobby at the City Hall complex and deposited in the prescription drop box; anyone can do this, and residency is not required.
    • Vehicle batteries and motor oil can be returned to garages or auto supply stores.

    Sedona residents in Coconino County may participate in this event in addition to being able to drop off items year-round in Flagstaff via the Flagstaff Hazardous Products Center. Visit www.flagstaff.az.gov/hpc or call (928) 213-2159 for more information. 

    Disposing of hazardous waste in landfills contaminates drinking water and can kill wildlife. Throwing out electronics can waste billions of dollars in recoverable materials such as gold, silver, coltan, copper, palladium, platinum and other valuable metals. Proper disposal is important for protecting the health of humans and our environment.

    For additional details on the Sedona Household Hazardous Waste Event contact Sustainability Manager McKenzie Jones at mjones@sedonaaz.gov or (928) 203-5060.

    A Bad Moon Rising

    By Tommy Acosta
    What the hell is going on? Is the fabric of society in the U.S. tearing apart at the seams? Watching those videos of teens gone wild, smashing windows, stealing from shopping centers, laughing while running over bicyclists — an omen of things to come? What can be done? Catch them? Incarcerate them. Put them in jails until they learn enough about crime to come out as skilled criminals? These kids, these young men and women of color, are growing wild in the streets. From fatherless homes, unable to properly read or write, a dismal and destitute future ahead of them. What is going to happen when they reach adulthood? The cops can’t stop them. There are simply too many. They can flash mob a phalanx of cops and just run berserk around them. What are the police to do? Shoot them? Read more→
