In secret, behind locked gates, our Nation's Oldest City dumped a landfill in a lake (Old City Reservoir), while emitting sewage in our rivers and salt marsh. Organized citizens exposed and defeated pollution, racism and cronyism. We elected a new Mayor. We're transforming our City -- advanced citizenship. Ask questions. Make disclosures. Demand answers. Be involved. Expect democracy. Report and expose corruption. Smile! Help enact a St. Augustine National Park and Seashore. We shall overcome!

Meeting Today on 20,000 Cubic Yards of Illegal Dumping by City of St. Augustine, Florida
Mr. William Pence, the City's environmental attorney (from Orlando) is in St. Augustine this morning. http://www.akerman.com/public/attorneys/aBiography.asp?id=396 We trust that the City's circa $500/hour environmental lawyer slept well at the splendid Casa Monica Hotel last night. www.casamonica.com. Thus refreshed, at City expense, we look forward to answers from Mr. Pence. He is meeting with FDEP officials in Jacksonville today at 1 PM on 20,000 cubic yards of illegal dumping by the City of St. Augustine, which Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. called the "most lawless" city in America. Left word for Mr. Pence at the City Attorney's office earlier this morning. Efforts to reach Mr. Pence for comment have been unavailing. Mr. Pence, we're still waiting for answers to the 77 questions on the City's illegal dumping. Please answer the questions today. Thank you, Mr. Pence.
