    City of Sedona ArizonaSedona AZ (February 27, 2012) – The City of Sedona, the Art in Public Places Committee, the Arts & Culture Commission, and the City Council cordially invite you to attend a Dedication Ceremony for the newly installed roundabout sculptures of Kim Kori and Ken Rowe’s Above and Beyond.

    The ceremony will take place at the corner of the Y Roundabout and Brewer Road (old service station parking lot) on Friday, March 16, 2012 at 10:00 a.m.   

    This ceremony will include a formal ribbon cutting and speeches by the artists, members from the Art in Public Places Committee, Commissioners from the Art & Culture Commission, as well as from City Council and staff.

    The installation of Above and Beyond has been highly anticipated since its inception in October 2010.  Many hours of artistic endeavors, careful planning, engineering, construction, and meticulous placement have led to their new and prestigious homes.

    Adding to the excitement is the fact that the sculptures have been designated as an official Arizona Centennial Project by the Arizona Historical Advisory Commission in celebration of Arizona’s one-hundredth birthday.

    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.
