Having read several agendas these reasons have been vetted and discussed for several years! Why all the hoopla now? Creek access, got it. Adams loved it. He’s gone. Walkability, got it. Turn off the heat then we’ll walk. On and on and on and on. Like I said, what’s all the hoopla. Nothing new here.

Great . Now the Waltons are coming in to give us a grant if we do it their way…..
Maybe they will fund the Sedona chamber next year or the lodging association?

The message was clear
1. Sedona is limited to the kind of economic development due to the limited space and the location.
2. Area is incorporated Sedona
3. Current Businesses – retention – appreciate what you have
4. Bring businesses that fit into the incorporated area
4. Chamber is not city, they are a regional membership group
5. Focus in on incorporated City. Make it livable.

Businesses and residents have never lasted long in Sedona for one main reason. They don’t want you here. While our world has changed Sedona has gone backwards. Surrounding communities treat businesses and residents nicely. Check out Flagstaff http://www.chooseflagstaff.com/doing-business-here/regional-profile/

Northern Arizona is a vast and diverse region; for example, Coconino County is the second largest county in the United States. Regionally, the City of Flagstaff with the Economic Collaborative of Northern Arizona (ECoNA), defines the region as the I40 corridor from Williams to Winslow and Verde Valley to the Navajo Reservation. This geographic area is responsible for the majority of Northern Arizona businesses, residents and investments. Located in the center of Northern Arizona’s trade region, Flagstaff enjoys a dramatic increase in inbound workforce, shoppers, students and residents from surrounding communities all supporting our local and regional economy.

The average age of your town council is mid-60s. They should resign for being too old to think clearly.
