    Sedona News – On June 6, 2023, the Sedona P&Z unanimously approved a development review for the construction of a new multi-use project on two existing commercial parcels at 2140 W SR 89A and 40 Goodrow Lane.

    The project was designed by architect, Dan Surber, on behalf of the owners Sergio and Ofelia Goma in partnership with Sinagua Malt in Camp Verde.

    The current 0.93-acre site consists of two dilapidated buildings that will be torn down. Owner Sergio Goma said materials from the demolished buildings will be donated to Habitat for Humanity.

    The new project, called Alkemista, will sport a 5,000 square foot meadery and coffee roasting tasting rooms, with 1,300 square feet of warehouse space, and 15 long-term residential units.   A “meadery” is a brewery that produces honey wines.

    Four two-story buildings will be erected on the razed parcels, and most of the residential units will be offered to employees.

    The P&Z board applauded the owners for creating a mixed-use project that offers housing to local workers, and said they hope Sedona will see more projects like this in the future.

    The project will share Goodrow Lane with The Wilde Spa and Resort (formerly Sedona Rouge) right next door, providing it with a built-in customer base.

    Jay Kriske, the Wilde’s General Manager commented on the project, “The Wilde is in full support of the project, it’s better than what’s there.”  However, he did raise concerns that Alkemista parking could spill over into the Wilde’s parking area, and vehicles might use The Wilde as a “cut through” to avoid traffic congestion.

    Now that the design is approved no further P&Z review is needed, and the parties may begin to apply for permits.  However, a development agreement will still need to be approved by city council to ensure that the residential units won’t be rented short-term, and that any partial sale of the project’s four buildings won’t alter the planned shared parking area without city approval.

    A Bad Moon Rising

    By Tommy Acosta
    What the hell is going on? Is the fabric of society in the U.S. tearing apart at the seams? Watching those videos of teens gone wild, smashing windows, stealing from shopping centers, laughing while running over bicyclists — an omen of things to come? What can be done? Catch them? Incarcerate them. Put them in jails until they learn enough about crime to come out as skilled criminals? These kids, these young men and women of color, are growing wild in the streets. From fatherless homes, unable to properly read or write, a dismal and destitute future ahead of them. What is going to happen when they reach adulthood? The cops can’t stop them. There are simply too many. They can flash mob a phalanx of cops and just run berserk around them. What are the police to do? Shoot them? Read more→
