    City of Sedona ArizonaSedona AZ (July 17, 2019) – The city of Sedona has launched the online tool Wikimapping to collect ideas for walking and biking improvements. The tool features a map of Sedona in which you can draw routes you’d like to have built or would like improved; mark favorites, suggest “great” locations; and mark locations you feel are problematic. Once you mark your routes, you can add comments, or agree or disagree with others’ input. The feedback provided on the wikimap will be used to inform a walking and biking planning effort currently underway, which will ultimately result in a master plan to outline and prioritize future improvements.   

    Bicycle and pedestrian improvements are one of the city’s Transportation Master Plan strategies. This particular bike/walk planning process – labeled Get Outside (GO) Sedona — will create a comprehensive, detailed road map informed by contributions from Sedona’s walking and biking enthusiasts.

    This effort has a multifaceted public input approach that includes:

    • A GO Sedona citizen work group that will serve as an advisory board for development of the walking and biking master plan.
    • The online Wikimapping tool to get broad-based input from residents.
    • Focus group meetings with community groups.
    • Public meeting workshops with residents.

    “We hope residents will use this tool to share their wish lists of improvements to make walking and biking in our city a better, safer experience. Through the Community Plan and the National Citizen Survey we heard from the community that improved walking and biking is a top priority. This master plan will outline where the improvements should be made and which projects should be completed first,” says Senior Planner Cynthia Lovely.

    The map is open for input until Aug. 10 by visiting www.sedonaaz.gov/wikimapping.

    To learn more about the walking and biking master plan or to submit general comments, visit www.sedonaaz.gov/go or contact Cynthia Lovely at (928) 203-5035 orclovely@sedonaaz.gov.

    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.
