There are 7 executive positions in the city managers office. Why?

There is budgeted $4,112,041 for public works. If you take that and the 2013 actual police budget you get $6,418,524. The total Projected city budget for 2014 is $36,145,299.

WHAT DO THEY DO WITH THE OTHER $30,000,000 DOLLARS. 30 MILLION?

Remember Sedona Schools and Sedona Fire get no part of this 30 million. They are not part of the “City” of Sedona.

Don’t you deserve to keep your own money?

If you think you do, (Editor’s note: Visit website on the web.) We can use your help.

It really doesn’t make a difference which name you go by, you have dedicated your life to sounding like a darn fool, no matter the cause, you still have no credibility.

You spent years of your life spewing hate and lies about our dedicated hero’s at SFD because they saw the need to terminate your girlfriend for whatever the reason, boo hoo, life’s too short SO GET OVER IT!

So now you hate the city and say how we pay so much and can save 3% with our phone and electric bill. Well you know what Tony, I hope each and every land owner checks their bills like you asked so that they can learn that WE REALLY ARE GETTING A GREAT DEAL!

Tony, I pay a whopping $1.98 in sales tax for my electric bill and a staggering .09₵ for my phone bill. So according to your figures, for the outrageous tax of $2.07 a month I receive a quick response from our city police, I have road repairs and a responsive city staff that will actually answer the phone with a live person and assist me should I ever need it, NOT A BAD PRICE for all that!

Of course we also pay that same 3% sales tax at the food store and hardware store to receive those services and you know what Tony, SO DO THE 3 MILLION TOURISTS THAT VISIT OUR GREAT CITY! So, instead of just the land owners paying to get these services, we have THREE MILLION MORE PEOPLE contributing, SOUNDS LIKE A GREAT DEAL TO ME! Tourists share in our city and they get to pay with their sales tax just like us land owners, SOUNDS FAIR TO ME!

Tony, if you have nothing else to do with your time then to take pictures of our cops for having a cup of coffee and a city worker cashing his pay check on his lunch break, YOU HAVE WAY TOO MUCH TIME ON YOUR HANDS.

Once last thing Tony, who gives a darn if the holiday decorations were taken down a week or so after New Year’s. The land owners and tourists pay people to care of those things, WITH OUR SALES TAX! It also sounds like a safe tactic to have a cop with his lights on while those decorations were being removed, IT’S WHAT WE PAY FOR! The police are insuring our safety as well as their own.

So take your web site and crawl back under that rock once again.
