On February 13th, our Yavapai Food Neighbors Project received the Keep Sedona Beautiful 2015 Award of Excellence for Community Service. We are honored to be recognized for our team effort meeting special community needs.

Yavapai Food Neighbors Project is a neighbor-to-neighbor system that makes it easy for people to get involved and donate food throughout the year for those in need. During 2015 the Yavapai Food Neighbors Project distributed
more than a half million meals in Yavapai County. Our 2016 year is off to a great start with more than 23,000 lbs of food collected in February, which equates to just over 54,000 meals.Read the February 2016 collection information.

Learn more about the Yavapai Food Neighbors project and how you might get involved to make 2016 an even better year.

Our sincere thanks to Keep Sedona Beautiful for this award and for this commemorative plaque.

Steve is a nice guy and likely not council material. Some of us have skills and his is best served where he works and what he does now. Thanks to Steve for all that he does, you’re a good guy.

Let’s hazard a guess why his address and phone were blacked out? Likely it showed the Oak Creek Canyon address – because he has stated that the rules say he can choose any address and vote and run elsewhere? Is it right to wonder who received those forms and “helped” him “correct” his mistake – after all readers, do YOU walk around with your office supplies that include a black felt tip pen ?

Steve Segner is one of the four candidates selected to be interviewed on March 3rd for the Council vacancy. He stated on his CITY COUNCIL APPLICATION that he’s been a resident of the City of Sedona for 17 years. The work phone he lists is for El Portal, which he and his wife own. His Home PHONE and PHYSICAL ADDRESS in Sedona (on El Portal Lane?), have been blacked out by City Hall.

But, wait a minute. Hasn’t Steve Segner been a resident of Oak Creek Canyon for around the same number of years? Here’s a revealing quote taken from Steve Segner’s recent post on Sedona.Biz under their “Council Approves Parking Meters in Uptown” article:

“Ron, I come to work every day early and I see the same cars parked in the A.M., and see the same cars later in the afternoon. Employees from local hotels are parking in the city owned and rented parking spaces on Jorden rd. And there is one large adventure company up town that picks up and drops off in the loading zones, and where do you think there customers park? and for how long?”

GET THIS. According to the State Statutes, a Council candidate can have only one residence (in combination with an intent to remain).

A.R.S. 16-101. QUALIFICATIONS OF REGISTRANT, DEFINITION.

B. For the purposes of this title, “resident” means an individual who has actual physical presence in this state, or for purposes of a political subdivision [e.g., City of Sedona] actual physical presence in the political subdivision, combined with an intent to remain. A temporary absence does not result in a loss of residence if the individual has an intent to return following his absence. An individual has only one residence for purposes of this title.

Proof Sedona Times walks the walk & talk? Steve Segner gets kudos here & not edited out, KSB article published & support for national monument noted, plenty of space given to many points of view.
