    Sedona AZ (July 14, 2013) – Warren Woodward from the Sedona Smart Meter Awareness group is steaming over a letter to the editor published in another media in which his efforts are labeled “hysteria”. The seeming hysteria is actually passion for an issue that Warren has been championing for several years: anti smart meters. There are few people who are more versed in RF (radio frequency) and EMF (electromagnetic frequency) than Warren. Mainstream believers hold the position that there is nothing to be concerned about, while Warren has researched the issue and found there is plenty to be concerned about. See Warren’s letter to the editor in Sedona.biz on Friday, July 12, 2013 (Open Letter to the Arizona Corporation Commission: APS = more deception, lies and misinformation).

      My gratitude goes out to Warren for all his years of educating the public about “Smart meters”. We cannot thank you enough for keeping us all advised to the health hazards of these high frequency and dangerous meters. My family’s health is more important to me then APS profiting from their installation. Anyone that does not read the facts about these meters obviously has not done his/her homework. Thanks again Warren. Your years of research and knowledge regarding the dangers of the “Smart” meter is so vital to our well being more now then ever.

      Last week, I was walking up Schnebley Hill Road and met two Australian tourists who were electrical engineers, taking a five week trip driving around America. I asked them what they know about Smart Meters in Australia. Their eyes widened and their shoulders went up. Here is our dialogue:

      Terrie: “What do you know about Smart Meters in Australia?”

      Australian Tourist: “We are adamantly against Smart Meters in Australia. We are all fighting them.”

      Terrie: “Why?”

      Australian Tourist #1: “Everyone who has had them put in, their electric bills have sky rocketed!”

      Austrlian Tourist #2: “They are unsafe, unhealthy and invade our privacy.”

      Australian Tourist #1: “The electric power company can cut off our power at will.”

      There you have it.

      My personal opinion is that the City of Sedona should opt out entirely of the APS Smart “Fire Starter” Meters for an even greater reason. Sedona is 19 square miles. Half of those miles consist of National Forest. It is undisputed that Smart Meters can and have started hundreds of fires.

      Watch these videos on “Smart” meter fires:

      http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=Ah3nNo89-NU

      APS is planning to install them in Sedona by the end of the year. We must all Opt Out.

      I and others are asking our City to enforce our Nuisance Ordinance and possible trespass laws by prosecuting anyone coming onto our properties to change out our meters against our will. http://www.azleg.state.az.us/ars/13/02917.htm
      This is our City Attorney’s email: Mike Goimarac

      THIS IS WHAT IS HAPPENING IN SEDONA: http://www.sedonasmartmeterawareness.com
      You can find the sample letter to ‘opt out’ onhttp://www.sedonasmartmeterawareness.com/Sample-Letters.html

      More… These “smart” meters broadcast information back to the power company via cell phone type technology, making up to 190, 000 broadcasts per day. The almost constant microwave frequencies coming from them disrupt the circuitry in our bodies. Some people have already been made sick. Privacy violations can also occur since they can tell what device you are using and how long. Power surges that fry appliances have been known to happen also, as well as over-billing. Utilities never take responsibility for those. It’s always the ratepayers’ problem. Some lawsuits have begun in various states. APS Admits that over 5,000 smart meters have been removed at owners requests after being put in…

      Great reporting Warren! Keep up the great work. We need a hundred more people like you to showcase the truth and expose the lies that the Corporate/Government fascists are perpetrating upon and subjecting the owners (we the people) of this country to.

      Thanks for helping us http://takebackyourpower.net/

     THE MOMENT IS UPON US

    Dear Sedona,

    The moment is upon us. The time for a united effort to shift the focus back to our community is now.

    The ability to thrive in our community, our environment, our workforce, and the tourist industry, is entirely possible because we have all the resources needed for success.

    Still, we need a council that isn’t afraid to ask the hard questions, that makes decisions based on data and facts, and through discussion, rather than moving and voting in group unison as they so regularly do.

    This is my home. I have been a part of the Sedona community for 28 years. I witnessed the road debacle, the lack of planning, the city circumventing the local businesses ability to thrive, while making choices to expand the local government and be in direct competition with private industry.

    I am a unique candidate because unlike the incumbents, I don’t believe the government should expand in size, nor in operations, nor would I attempt to micromanage every aspect of our community.

    City government should stay in its lane and allow the competitive market of local private industry to prosper. And it should defend our community from corporate takeover and infiltration of our town.

    I do not agree that we should sign onto International Building Codes and regulations by signing Sedona up to the ICC. It is imperative that we remain a sweet, rural community.

    Where are the arts? Where is this organic thriving element that we allege to be animated by. Where is our culture? Where is our community?

    The discord between the decision making process and the desires of the community have never been more clear. It has been nearly a decade in the making.

    It is time for a new era of energy to take charge. An energy that is reflective in the ability to succeed rather than be trapped in out of date consciousness.

    It has been a great honor meeting with each of you. I hear your concerns over the insane and out of control spending and I echo them. A budget of $105,000,000 in a town of 9700 residents is completely unacceptable. A parking structure (that looks like a shoe box) originally slated to cost 11 million, now projected to cost 18 million, is incomprehensible. Especially, considering there is no intention of charging for parking.

    For those who are concerned that I lack the political experience within our established system- that is precisely what Sedona needs… Not another politician, but instead a person who understands people, who listens to the voices within the community, and who will act in service on their behalf with accountability, for the highest good of Sedona. What I am not, will prove to be an asset as I navigate the entrenched bureaucracy with a fresh perspective. Business as usual, is over.

    Creative solutions require new energy.

    Every decision that is made by our local government, must contemplate Sedona first.

    • Does this decision benefit the residents?
    • Does this decision benefit the local businesses?
    • Does this decision actually help the environment?
    • Will this decision sustain benefit in the future, or will it bring more problems?

    What we have now is a city government that expands to 165 employees for 9700 residents. Palm Desert has 53,000 residents and 119 city employees. Majority of our city department heads are not even in town. I find this problematic.

    Efforts towards championing in and courting new solutions for our medical needs are imperative. We are losing our doctors. We must encourage competition with other facilities rather than be held hostage by NAH, who clearly have their own set of dysfunctions.

    We must remember that so many move to Sedona for its beauty, hiking, and small town charm. Bigger, faster, and more concrete does not, in broad strokes, fit the ethos of Sedona.

    The old world must remain strong here in balance, as that is what visitors want to experience. Too many have noted that Sedona has lost its edge and charm.

    As Mayor I will preserve the rural charm of our community, and push back against the urbanization that is planned for Sedona.

    As mayor I will make it a priority to create opportunities to support our youth.  After school healthy, enriching programs should be created for our kids, and available to the Sedona workforce regardless of residency and regardless of school they belong to.

    As Mayor, I will create an agenda to deliberately embody the consciousness of our collective needs here, allowing private industry to meet the needs of our community rather than bigger government.

    I hope to have your vote on Aug 2nd. I am excited and have the energy to take on this leadership role with new eyes, community perspective, and the thoughtful consciousness that reflects all ages of the human spectrum.

    Thank you deeply for your consideration.

    Sincerely,

    Samaire Armstrong


    Heads or Tails
    By Tommy Acosta
    Let’s face it. I love conspiracy theories. The more far-out the better. Yup. I’m one of those. Looking at the Trump raid fiasco there can only be two theories that I see fit perfectly into the scenario that’s being weaved for public consumption. The first is that what is happening is actually being engineered by the forces that want Trump to return to the White House. Just like with the Russia-Russia thing, what is going to happen after all the hoopla,Trump will be found completely innocent just like before and he will be loved even more by his fans and followers. Those who tried to put him down will be chagrinned while those who supported him politically will be exalted. Republicans will be revived, and they will go out and vote in a new Congress and Trump will rule once again. Then there is the other side of the coin. Read more→
