Sunset Drive (7th Day Adventist Church).

    Founders of the Sedona Pet Food Bank Linda Brecher and Carolyn Bills are volunteers of the Humane Society of Sedona, over the past few years volunteering they noticed that there where many animals being surrendered because their owners did not have the money to feed them anymore. Heartbroken to have witnessed these animals and their owners in desperate need they decided to take action.

    20131122_PFB-donation-barrel-and-Linda1In November of 2012, the Sedona Community Foundation gave a grant to begin this endeavor; the grant was matched by community member Rey Nichols who is also a member of the Sedona Pet Food Bank. In January of 2013 the grant money was spent as the demand for pet food exceeded the supply. To date Linda and Carolyn have given $300 to $500 per month out of their own pockets to ensure there is enough food for all the companion animals. An astounding 3000 pounds of pet food has been given to families in need since January 2013.

    The Sedona Pet Food Bank success depends on donated food and cash donations which Linda and Carolyn use to purchase quality pet food at wholesale through Sedona Pet Supply. “Our mission is to provide pet food to clients of The Sedona Pet Food Bank in an effort to help keep their companion animals at home where they belong and out of our over crowded shelters. We try to provide quality dog and cat food so as to minimize veterinarian visits and costs. We also have information available on low cost spay/ neuter programs and pet resources in the Verde Valley” says Linda Brecher.

    City Council Weighs ATV Ban Ordinance Proposal
    By Tommy Acosta
    The Sedona City Council at its May 23, 2023 meeting took no action on a proposed ordinance that would ban all off-road vehicles from being driven on state-owned public roads or streets owned by the city. The ordinance, spearheaded by Sedona Mayor Scott Jablow on the premise that such vehicles pose a risk to the health, safety and welfare of the community, would impose heavy fines to anyone driving the ATVs or OHVs on city streets, including S.R. 179 and S.R. 89A. ATV rental companies have admitted that such vehicles are not intended or designed to be driven on paved roads, yet, in Arizona, they are allowed to do so under Arizona Revised Statute 28-1174 (4B). Opponents against the ordinance argued at the meeting that if adopted the ban would cripple the ATV rental industry in Sedona and cause much hardship to the owners and employees, as it would effectively, as written, destroy their livelihood.
