Welcome Visitors to "Clean Up City of St. Augustine, Florida"

Our beautiful City welcomes millions of American and overseas visitors annually. Welcome. Let me welcome you to "Clean Up City of St. Augustine, Florida," which also welcomes visitors, including recent visitors from four continents. Visitors include people from St. Augustine and St. Johns County, Northeast Florida, every region in America, as well as Spain, United Kingdom, Argentina, Italy, Canada, the Czech Republic and Malaysia. Watch this space. This blog is only twelve days old. Our City is over 440 years old. Democracy is a wonderful thing, its wonders unfolding right here, before your very eyes. As a wise man in Oak RIdge, Tennessee once said to me, "we've got nowhere to go but up." Soon we hope to show you more about the Nation's Oldest City that will help us to learn together and to become (in the words of John Winthrop and Ronald Reagan), "a shining city on a hill," a beacon of understanding, tolerance and honest government. We welcome your suggestions and expertise on solving our environmental, development and authorarianism problems here in St. Augustine. We welcome our City's answers to questions, e.g., on dumping of 20,000 cubic yards of contaminants in the Old City Reservoir.
