    logo_arizonacommunityfoundationCamp Verde AZ (January 16, 2020) – The Camp Verde Marshal’s Office (CVMO) received a $6,000 donation for the purchase of automated external defibrillators (AEDs) in patrol cars from local residents and philanthropists Bill and Susan Cammock.

    The Cammocks attended the Arizona Community Foundation’s Spirit of Sedona event in 2019, where they met connected with CVMO, a grant recipient from ACF of Sedona’s competitive grant cycle. The grant funding they received from ACF of Sedona equipped two of their 14 patrol cars with AEDs. These devices provide vital cardiac defibrillation to heart attack victims.

CVMO deputies have a faster response time than their counterparts, and are typically on the scene for medical emergencies before the fire department or EMS.  

    Upon hearing of the need for more AEDs, the Cammocks were motivated to become involved and give. Their $6,000 donation provided four additional AEDs, meaning that now six CVMO patrol cars are equipped with the devices.

    “With the AEDs purchased for CVMO by the Cammocks through ACF, deputies now have AEDs to be carried in their vehicles during shift as a valuable lifesaving tool,” said Brain Armstrong, Commander of CVMO.

    By working closely with ACF of Sedona, the Cammocks were able to connect with a local project that interested them.

    Analyzing City’s Legal Right to
    Ban OHVs on Public Roads

    By Tommy Acosta
    Mea Culpa! Mea Culpa! Mea Maxima Culpa! I screwed up. Blew it. Totally made a fool of myself. Missed the boat. I am talking about my editorial on the OHV fight, No Legal Traction on OHVs. I assumed that it was ADOT that would make a decision on whether the city could legally ban off road vehicles from our public roads like S.R. 89A and S.R. 179. Man was I off. ADOT has nothing to do with allowing or disallowing the city to do so. ADOT’s response to me when I asked them to clarify their position, was curt and to the point. “ADOT designs, builds and maintains the state highway system,” I was told. “It is not our place to offer an opinion on how state law might apply in this matter.” It was a totally “duh” moment for me when I realized that that the decision or judgement on the OHV ordinance, would involve the state and not ADOT. Chagrinned I stand. The crux of the matter then is whether the city can effectively use a number of standing state laws that can be interpreted to determine whether the city can legally ban the vehicles or not.
