    Dispose of Yard Waste and Vegetation at City of Sedona’s Debris Collection Event

    City of Sedona ArizonaSedona AZ (April 27, 2016) – The city of Sedona, in cooperation with the Sedona Fire District will accept yard waste Monday, June 6, 2016 through Thursday, June 9, 2016, from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the City Maintenance Yard at 2070 Contractors Road.

    Residents can bring their yard waste and vegetation to be disposed of prior to fire season. Creating a defensible space within 30 feet of your home can greatly reduce the risk of a wildfire. Tall, dry grasses provide a path for fire that can lead directly to your house. By removing dry grasses, leaves, pine needles from your roof and gutters, excess growth, and dead leaves and branches, it decreases the flammability potential. Pruning tree limbs so the lowest limb is between six to ten feet from the ground reduces the chance of fire igniting a tree.

    This is also an opportunity to clean up any debris in drainage areas prior to monsoon season. Shrubs, loose trimmings and yard waste in drainage ditches may prevent stormwater from flowing properly, increasing chances of flooding.

    Yard debris, including brush, tree limbs and trunks, shrub trimmings, bagged leaves and pine needles (no cactus trimmings please) may be dropped off at the City Maintenance Yard during the event. Leaves, grasses and pine needles must be bagged in an effort to reduce the spread of noxious weeds.  Appliances, hazardous materials, garbage, mattresses and other household waste will not be accepted.

    The Sad Lesson of Tyre Nichols
    By Tommy Acosta
    Having grown up in the mean streets of the Bronx there is one lesson we learn early on, and that’s don’t mess with the cops when they got you down, and outnumbered. The beating of Tyre Nichols at the hands of the police preceding his death at the hospital could have been avoided if only he had the sense to not resist them. People fail to understand that on the streets, cops are basically “God.” You can’t fight them. If it takes one, two, five, ten or twenty officers they will eventually put you down and hurt you if they have to in the process of detaining or arresting you. In the Bronx we would fight amongst ourselves but when the cops came it was “Yes, officer. No, officer,” and do our best to look as innocent as possible. People need to understand that cops on the street represent the full power of the state and government. Read more→
