					<description><![CDATA[Howdy doody Mr.  Hal. 

You are correct that my message should have gone direct to Harley McGuire. Wat happen was mah human parents were so dang involved in readin&#039; bout all Sedonya&#039;s trubbles, stuff like the school and fire taxes and stuff from Jean and Rick and others it seems they put me to the wrong place to have my say. 

Not to matter tho cuz no doubt in my mind that Mr. Harley McGuire and his pals are way too smart to think &#039;bout getting into Sedonya political rat-nest. Just more local pests to deal with.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Hi Harley McGuire. Even tho your just a doggie (I&#039;m a kitty kat) it seems you are pretty smart and it would be a good thing if you and your friends would be on that city council thingie my people parents read about. I would join you but we live in this place called Calyfornia now so even tho theres problems not so bad as where you are. Oh yes, the snakey in the house wouldn&#039;t have been a problem for me. I caught lizards all the time when we lived in Sedonya.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[After watching parts of todays council meeting: Hats off to the Chamber for getting their 55% of a newly jacked up Bed tax of .05% and without a Business Plan anyone can see.  

looks like what I&#039;ve read on this website and watched on line constitutes a call to the State AG as to how anyone will know how a particular Council Man will vote prior to a Council Meeting!  And then Mark D voted just as predicted by Ralph from the Lodging Council

Man, how I wish I could have pulled that feat off with my bankers (just like the city is the Chamber&#039;s Bankers) back in the day when I needed to raise cash for my multiple business enterprises in order to grow them. 

One thing I learned bk in the day was raising my rates (same as raising bed tax) for product, never netted me more money as the production costs never were able to be reduced to improve the product maintenance or production costs. 

Time will tell all of us of the intelligence of these nefarious folks and their relationship.  I for one hope they can pull off their grand huge revenue in &quot;dream&quot;.

Otherwise our bed tax&#039;s will go down and the sales tax will go down and then the &quot;Bankers&quot; will have to deal with their new contract that perhaps is ANIMATED BY CORRUPTION”]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Oh my - so many people I want to respond to and where to start?

Lesley H. - Your point is Valid and should be a refresher course to Council (and Legal Staff) as to the legal issues of any elected person making a commitment to any issue well prior to a Public Vote.  Looks like Ralph just sunk Councilman Mark D when he said Mark had agreed to the 55%?  Isn&#039;t that like breaking the law?

And once again Lesley H - you&#039;re correct about same tactics going on with the school district over-ride-hike-our-taxes-BS.  along with the realizing of mismanagement of funds without accountability with both Public entities.  (isn&#039;t that called &quot;self-serving?)

Sharon - Hey - the Chamber has never funded the hard working business community owners who spend their own money vs City dole out funds.  I don&#039;t ever recall the Chamber offering to give a hard pressed business any money to get them over the hump?  You know something I don&#039;t?

Bob, Sedona: You approve of Ralph calling in Favors to shorten his advertising budget on the backs of the tourists?  Wow!

Carol: yet the true face of the incestuous relationship between Chamber, City &#038; Lodging group is know out in the open.

I for one feel very offended and tired of all of this game the &quot;players&quot; keep playing as they think we are damn dumb dead and silent!

to &quot;Say What&quot; - HUH?  if you really believe what you wrote I&#039;ve a bridge you might be interested in because I assure you it will bring you a huge return.

Yep Warren ---- the Con Artists!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Come on folks, your really out there. If you increase bed tax to promote tourist then keep it to do that. The chamber has nothing to do with local business. They are membership based with a minority OUTSIDE the city. They HURT the local in town business. Drive around town stores are empty. Friends getting friends to steal city money for PRIVATE business. Nothing about this is fair. The City should keep 100% of the money and place their own ads. Enough. Speak up!]]></description>
