    City of Sedona ArizonaSedona AZ (May 29, 2019) – The first major Sedona in Motion construction project begins in Uptown Sedona on Monday, June 3. The work will last 9-12 months. The contractor expects to maintain two-way traffic on SR89A throughout the project. The Jordan Road intersection will be closed to through traffic at State Route 89A during construction hours. Northbound motorists are asked to follow the marked detour along Forest Road, Van Deren Road, and Mesquite Avenue. Southbound motorists will be directed to Apple Avenue. Detour signs and blue business access signs will be visible to guide traffic. Please be aware of lane restrictions, reduced speeds, and flagging operations.

    Residents and Uptown business owners can get information about Uptown construction in many ways.

    • Visit the simuptown.com website and sign up for the weekly newsletter
    • Attend a Monday Morning Meetup to peak directly with the construction contractor. The meeting locations will rotate among several Uptown businesses. The schedule is posted in newsletters and at simuptown.com
    • Call the project hotline at 928-852-4164 for questions and concerns
    • Sign up for special Nixle construction text and/or email alerts by texting the word SIMUPTOWN to 888777. We will use the Nixle system only to broadcast late, unexpected, or time-sensitive construction changes or problems.

    The city is also making a special effort to accommodate and assist Uptown business owners during construction by distributing fliers door-to-door, partnering with the chamber of commerce on special promotions, and in other ways that are described in the Business Construction Support Guide posted on the sedonachamber.com website.

    About the project. This project — the Sedona in Motion Uptown Roadway Improvements project — will improve traffic flow, and the appearance and community feel of Sedona’s Uptown area through a combination of street, hardscape and landscape improvements. Project elements have been designed to control traffic flow and remove a variety of causes of slow-downs.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
