He is a professor of fiction and nonfiction at Northern Arizona University and reviews editor of DIAGRAM. His current projects include SOMEONE TOOK THE WORDS TO MY SONG, a book of hybrid fictions about the 39 small island states most prone to coastal erosion, and BACKVALLEY FERRETS, a book-length essay about the rewilding of the black-footed ferret to the Colorado Plateau.

    Five of the essays in Lenhrat’s book THE WELL STOCKED AND GILDED CAGE earned recognition from Year’s Best Creative Nonfiction.  Walker’s newest book was published by the prestigious Bloomsbury Press.  One can understand why The Pumphouse Poetry and Prose Project is thrilled to be presenting two emerging authors of such national acclaim.

    The event will also showcase the musical talents of local favorite Devin Angelet. Ms. Angelet has been wowing crowds across the Verde Valley since her arrival, including previous Pumphouse Poetry and Prose shows as well as stunning performances at the Sedona library.  A former student at Berklee College of Music the charismatic Ms. Angelet brings touches of pop, rock, soul and jazz improvisation to her music.

    The Pumphouse Poetry and Prose Project is thrilled to present such top notch talent at this month’s show and won’t you please join us at the Sedona library Friday, August 25th at 5pm.  The Pumphouse Project would not be possible without the support and assistance of award winning poet Elizabeth Oakes.  Gary Scott has also been known to lend a hand with whatever needs doing.  The Pumphouse Poetry and Prose Project would like to thank Virgina Volkman and the Sedona library for providing us a temporary home.  Pumphouse Poetry events are hosted by Gary Every.

    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.
