Let me get this straight: City of under 10,000 needs a new employee to deal with – Huh???

Somehow I thought the terms of employment/responsibilities being advertised for – were already in sync with all the current levels of those employed who could deal with all the “Cities new wants” by virtue and responsibilities of the existing staff?

I must be wrong as it looks like the City Manager, Tim Earnster, Karen Daines, Assistant City Manager, and the Director of Financial Services and her department, who are all responsible and supposed to do the same, cant get it all done! WOW!

So, while my sewer bill goes up and our “Council” asks us to take on new taxes —–they want to hire a new person?

While the Chamber and Lodging Council asks – (actually they don’t ASK – they just Push forward, for what ever their reasons) for a new and higher bed tax and additional sales tax that is supposed to support them and allows all other business’s to forget how to pay for their own promotion…

Call me Crazy but I’d rather you call me correct in that this little town of 10,000 or less, needs to get rid of the big city mentality, Chamber wants and Lodging wants, and without any new employees or taxes!

Come on folks – lets figure out how to say a big STOP to the missteps this council is taking as they continue to allow Staff do their big take over…in addition to the Chambers wants as well as the lodging group!

Thanks for reading, and please think about this!

PS simple questions: How many people does it take to run the financial dealings of a town of this small size!!! How much money has to be drawn away from getting the real basics accomplished? Come on city – make it work within your current number of employees!

This seems a never ending method of just lettin’ the money flow without ever really tucking in and producing the correct number of employees for a town as small as Sedona. WOW – how they keep wasting more (our) money!

Is this a part time position with all those benefits? Yowzser! sign me up!

what really bothers me most is how our history has been lost and we have all the newbe’s trying to recreate
