More proof that this city of Sedona cannot tend to its own affairs. They don’t get it that the school and fire are “districts” which are financially supported with legitimate property taxes. If a NO to Home Rule will stop all of this inappropriate spending then it must be done. Wonderful as it is to have art in the classroom It is NOT the responsibility of Sedona taxpayers to provide for it. We already pay for the school district with our property taxes.The idea of disincorporation is sounding better all the time.

Thank you Sedonaeye for the history lesson with the old stories that pop up again. The paste above was when Nancy Dunst ran the program in 09-10 – and then it paid $25 an hour. How much was spent then?

How many artists will be hired and how many hours are budgeted @25 an hour for this school year?

Nancy Latanzi please reply. Don’t get me wrong I love the arts in schools but want to know how much it costs us in the budget. That’s fair since it’s our collective money. Sharon in Sedona

It makes total sense for the City to spend money on “artists” for the school district while at the same time stating in the City budget, “In order to continue to address capital infrastructure improvements and pursue new capital outlay projects beyond 2017 [FY 2016-17], other funding sources and/or a debt financing strategy must be pursued.” After all, Sedona is “animated by the arts” not by infrastructure.
