    Flagstaff, AZ (October 26, 2011) –  The fall season for collecting live trees, known as “wildings,” from National Forest lands begins Friday, October 28 and ends November 28 on the Flagstaff District of the Coconino National Forest.

    There are typically two wildings permit seasons – one in the spring and another in the fall, for approximately one month while plants are dormant. Permits will be available for coniferous trees only (Douglas Fir, White Fir, Ponderosa Pine, Pinyon Pine, and Juniper). Due to the severe decline of Aspen stands across the forest and lack of natural regeneration, Aspen seedlings will not be offered.

    Trees up to 12 feet tall may be collected; however for the best chance of successful transplanting, foresters recommend that selected seedlings be much smaller in size – less than four feet. The fee is $1.00 per foot, with a minimum fee of $20.00 per permit. Maps of designated gathering locations, along with transplanting recommendations, are provided with the permit.

    Wilding permits will be issued beginning Friday, October 28 until Friday, November 25, and are valid for plant collection through Monday, May 28. Permits can be obtained from the Flagstaff Ranger District office, 5075 N. Highway 89 and Forest Supervisor’s Office, 1824 S. Thompson St. in Flagstaff.

    For additional information, contact the Flagstaff Ranger District at 928-526-0866

    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.
