SSCA News Release 7/1/22

Thirty volunteers (Sister City Sleuths) met at Sedona’s City Hall on June 7 to kick off the process to select Sedona’s first Sister City. Five teams were asked to analyze and recommend cities based on established criteria including population size, sustainability programs, unique location, viable economic region, tourism and potential for cultural and business exchanges. The teams studied 45 cities from across the globe and recommended twelve cities for further investigation. Next review steps include analysis by criteria-specific local experts and a further narrowing of the list to five potential partner cities. If you have input to offer about a city on the following list, please share your thoughts at sedonasistercities@gmail.com .
