@JeanJ Explain how this transparency of allocations isn’t better than line items? This appears at face value to show that HR as example completed $51,140 as a department for Wastewater employees training etc? What am I missing? How does this relate to HR as example overall budget outlay? What’s or is this the message? This site gets better each year. Its ability to swim in shark tanks is the press wave of the future. Lucky Sedona.

As Henry mentions, “Various government departments charge the Wastewater Fund for related work they do for the plan.”

Departmental Allocations totaling $1,056,950 are budgeted for this year, to wit: Information Technology, $180,040; Human Resources, $51,140; Financial Services, $189,420; Utility Billing, $370,640; General Services; $73,470; City Manager, $68,080; City Clerk, $5,650; City Attorney, $55,100; and Facilities Maintenance, $63,410.

Isn’t this discrimination? The City Manager’s Office doesn’t charge the Chamber of Commerce for related work it does for it.

Smoke and mirrors is likely a transparency understatement. Interesting perspective and it’s appreciated that someone and some media outlets even are talking about it. People didn’t care under Pres. Obama gifts to big corporate or when he helped Solyndra steal money from taxpayers and under Pres. Trump its sounding the same even with some progress. Sorry state of affairs beginning with Bill Clinton. We have to have higher standards of our elected officials. We have to say unacceptable and vote them to get out when they don’t do their jobs.

This isn’t a soapbox comment it’s a fair and square comment.

Not to worry, Henry Twombly. It’s the same trite people who will continue to throw barbs when facts and truth are made public. That’s how they combat revelation of the down and dirty politics that continue to rule and destroy Sedona, both incorporated city and school and fire districts. Don’t lose heart. Keep up the good work. The angrier they get the better because you know for sure you are exposing the root of the evil in our midst. MY OPINION!

A balanced budget does not spend $10 million in reserves. Vote no on home rule or it will only get worse.
