The voters have spoken. They will get what they voted for, good and hard.

“The Chamber of Commerce is 100 percent funded by member businesses, not tax dollars” is only one canard in their CHAMBER HIGHLIGHTS article on Page 18, KUDOS, July 25-31, 2018. The same specious claim appeared in the RRN.

Sedona does not need a big-$$$$ PBA. The $36M PBA will end the millions in City of Sedona taxpayer funds gifted to the regional Chamber annually. Sedona is our town, not the Chamber’s.

Hey Mike
Apparently your comments should be ignored since you haven’t been right about ANYTHING regarding Sedona… you and your cronies are a scant minority..(deleted by editor) (as the last election has shown)

Mike Schroeder says:We are not the only tourist city that is getting fed up with over promotion.
Seems Mike is way out of step with Sedona citizens , his Tea gang lost big, just look at the numbers. Sedona citizens (deleted by editor) votes to support Home rule , No on his hand made PBA. and NO to him and his gang for fire board.
Voters like Sedona the way it is and it’s governments it’s tourism and the tax income it brings in and all the jobs it supports,Sedona is for “workers” not just the retired. By by Mike ..

Mike,

I’ve done my own research and found that those figures posted by the CoC are correct! But it doesn’t matter because Sedona isn’t buying what you’re selling!!!!

Maybe YOU should learn how SEDONA works!

Staff and Management of the Sedona Chamber of Commerce,

It is amazing that you would put out an email like this which is not only inaccurate, but an outright lie. If this is your idea of garnering public support for the Chamber – then you are sadly mistaking.

If you want a continued resistance to your activities in Sedona, just continue to cater to the businesses and continue to ignore the residents. You are being extremely short sighted and detrimental to your objectives.

We are not the only tourist city that is getting fed up with over promotion.
Jackson Hole, one of many has had it also.
