    Sedona AZ (November 2, 2013) – The public is invited to a Celebration of Life Memorial Service on Sunday November 3rd, from 5-7pm at the Sedona Public Library to commemorate the five art commissions (Arts & Culture, Parks & Recreation, Budget Oversight, Sustainability, and Housing) that were eliminated by the City. Also to commend and honor all of those courageous commissioners that worked so diligently, so patiently and sometimes with great frustration to help our community try to rise to its full potential over the past 24 years. We will be acknowledging these individuals on this evening.  According to the City, past lists  of people who have been on these commissions or committees are not kept, and so,  if you are one of these ex-commissioners or committee members, please know you are personally invited to come to this event and  you will be honored along with the others.  Please note that this event is in no way affiliated with the City of Sedona government. The service will last about 1 hour and a pot luck will follow.

    20131030_commissionsIn addition to honoring those citizens who have been involved in these commissions over the years, we will also be giving closure to the elimination of  these commissions and this will be a time to say good bye.  You are invited to sing a song, read a poem, or make a statement that speaks to this offering. If you are interested in doing this, we ask that you sign up to speak when you arrive. There will also be a  special time for each commission to present just a smattering of the work that it has accomplished through their existence. This is a historic remarkable moment in our Sedona history, a book mark in time, when the  the involvement of our citizens and the structure of our City is changing, and it can not go unnoticed.

    Artists and citizens involved in this event are  Peter Fagan, Joella Jean Mahone, Robert McElvain,  Firuse Stalcup, Jeanie Carrol,  Three trees, Marianne Leahy, Jennifer Epperson, Joel Maurice, Nancy Robb Dunst, Cathy Gazda, Amy Gordon, Dev Ross, Susan Larson. Luminous One, Heather Molans,  Jessica Sierra,  Don Kamerling, Barbara Ragali, Darlene Nelson, Nancy Ruby,  Paul Tutnick and many others.

    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.
