    logo_verdevalleyfiredistrictCottonwood AZ (March 9, 2016) – The governing boards of Clarkdale Fire District and Verde Valley Fire District unanimously adopted resolutions at their February regular meetings declaring that a consolidation of the two districts should be considered. The resolutions further declare that hearings will be held to obtain public comment.

    The districts have been discussing sharing services, in some form, since May, 2015.  The boards directed their fire chiefs to meet to study and compare all aspects of the districts.  The board discussions and staff research have lead the boards to believe that a consolidation may be beneficial to the citizens they serve by enhancing efficiency and service while eliminating duplicated costs.

    The Clarkdale Fire District Public Hearing will be held March 31, 2016 at 6:00 p.m. in the Clark Memorial Clubhouse, 19 N. Ninth Street, Clarkdale.  The Verde Valley Fire District Public Hearing will be held on April 5, 2016 at 6:00 p.m. in Godard Hall, Verde Valley Manor, 3400 E. Godard Road, Cottonwood.  Persons who own property within the districts should expect to find a Taxpayer Notice of Proposed Fire District Consolidation in their mailboxes in the next couple of weeks.

    City Council Weighs ATV Ban Ordinance Proposal
    By Tommy Acosta
    The Sedona City Council at its May 23, 2023 meeting took no action on a proposed ordinance that would ban all off-road vehicles from being driven on state-owned public roads or streets owned by the city. The ordinance, spearheaded by Sedona Mayor Scott Jablow on the premise that such vehicles pose a risk to the health, safety and welfare of the community, would impose heavy fines to anyone driving the ATVs or OHVs on city streets, including S.R. 179 and S.R. 89A. ATV rental companies have admitted that such vehicles are not intended or designed to be driven on paved roads, yet, in Arizona, they are allowed to do so under Arizona Revised Statute 28-1174 (4B). Opponents against the ordinance argued at the meeting that if adopted the ban would cripple the ATV rental industry in Sedona and cause much hardship to the owners and employees, as it would effectively, as written, destroy their livelihood.
