    Sedona Fire District to Issue Fall Burn Permits

    Sedona, AZ  – (September 19, 2011) – To protect your home from potential wildfires as well as make fall yard cleanup easier, the Sedona Fire District (SFD) is issuing no-cost residential burn permits starting Monday, September 26, 2011. Permits are required for any open burning within the fire district, and are currently available at no charge at the SFD’s business office at 2860 Southwest Drive in West Sedona between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. Beginning September 12, 2011 SFD has implemented the new business hours of 7:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m., Monday through Thursday, and with offices closed on Fridays. The final date for burning with a permit is Saturday, December 3, 2011. As always, extreme caution must be used.

    Open burning, under specific guidelines as described on the permit, will be allowed to start no earlier than one hour after sunrise with the fire being extinguished no later than two hours before sunset. The fire must be dead out by the end of the burning time. Burning will be allowed on Monday through Saturday; no burning is allowed on Sundays. Weather conditions will dictate if open burning will be allowed on a day-by-day basis. Any time winds exceed ten miles an hour, open burning will not be allowed. Permit holders are required to telephone SFD prior to starting a burn, and will be advised if the permits have been cancelled for that day due to weather.

    Construction materials, all plastic material, brush larger than four inches in diameter, paper, cardboard, rubbish and garbage may not be burned.

    The burn permit is also available on our website, www.sedonafire.org. You may download the burn permit, fill it out completely, sign it and fax it to 282-6857. The permit will be processed and faxed back. A complete list of conditions for burning is spelled out on the permit.

    Here are some steps you can take to protect your home from potential wildfires:

    1. Reduce flammable vegetation, trees, and brush around your home.

    2. Remove dead trees and prune low-hanging branches.

    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.
