Citizens Charge Yavapai College Plan will Destroy the Center’s Esthetics
A Yavapai Community College plan to enclose the circular part of the College’s Sedona Center has drawn fire from Sedona residents. As one resident put it:
The College intends to “desecrate the architectural integrity of the Sedona building by destroying the “Kiva” — a take-off on one of the world’s great ancient architectural wonders, the “Alhambra”, in Granada Spain . . .. They intend to destroy this area by closing it in — a true tragedy for the Sedona community.”
Sedona resident Carol Landower (phonetic spelling) argued at the Sedona City Council meeting September 27, 2016 that the Cerntgertis integrated into and specific to the Sedona landscape. She charged that the College was “destroying art. You are destroying the beauty and serenity of that building.”
