Actually I’d really intended to let my previous two cents worth suffice. However, reading all the name calling and back stabbing coming from the folks who apparently are afraid for the issue to go to the voters is somewhat chilling. If this is representative of the attitude of those who continue to cry “Poor me” because people want to exercise their constitutional rights, then just what is going on in Sedona? Little wonder the population dropped. Come on apparent losers. Get a grip and cease and desist with the mud slinging. I do not see it profusely spouting from those who simply want a ballot referendum and an opportunity for EVERYONE to vote.

Proof positive when POLITIC-ANS voted out of office by the townfolk can’t hush up and wait to run for office again fair and square in the next go-round.

All this talking gets a few old imbeciles and battleaxes riled up when they should be rocking on porches with some tea and chew. Idle minds and flapping jaws cause this town nothing but trouble.

Lordy Lordy they keep talking and talking and talking. This town was better LESS WINDY. (Wild Buckyeye McKittrick is saying)

Anyhow, if by chance in desperation this “new” council decides to uphold their broken promise to pursue a legal challenge (after opting for the so far failed route transfer) what are the chances for such action to be the one thing ADOT will need as a viable reason to dump the State Route onto the taxpayers of Sedona?

So, while our authorities on this subject are hopefully obtaining quotes on the costs of roundabouts and/or installation of more traffic lights like at the medical center, plus other wish list improvements, maybe they will enlighten us as to the chances for legal action by the City of Sedona to serve as the magical genie to unlock the justification to “gift” the road to Sedona, without monetary compensation, which would validate the so far idle threats by those who don’t want the lighting no matter what? Then let us hear them gleefully chant “Told you so” as more people plan to pack up and move on out. Little wonder Sedona’s population is dwindling.

Come on. Level with us. Time for the truth and nothing but the truth, Now isn’t that an interesting concept and wouldn’t it be a refreshing change? Ha, don’t hold your breath.

Neither am I a business owner nor a member of the Sedona Chamber of Commerce. In fact, I’m appalled at the amount of money the City allocates annually to the C of C allegedly for services that have been available long before Sedona was a legitimate “city” and funding from that source wasn’t available.

That being said, will reiterate with pleasant expection the opportunity to cast my vote in objection to the action taken by the four city council members for albeit a well intentioned alternative to continuous highway lighting but neglectful insofar that an accurate pulse wasn’t secured via the opportunity for residents to cast a vote on the matter prior to the premature decision. After all, we are the ones who will be paying for improvements and upkeep for a state route, designation not to be changed under the ownership of the City of Sedona.

Listening to utter nonsense that bringing SR89A to the standards provided by ADOT on SR 179 would be covered by the appx. ten million $$ no longer presumably on the table is blatant insanity. Specifically the proposal to continue from the “Y” with roundabouts is the latest hype I’m hearing, not necessarily with the inclusion of highway lane dividers. Have any of you not-so-conscientous objectors bothered to acquire the cost of design and implementation for even ONE roundabout? Wish you would and let your finding be made public providing it’s legitimate and not pie-in-the-sky wishful thinking which has, to date, been the case.

Time for the UFO to return passengers to Planet Earth. Is the Bell Rock terminal still in operation?
