Safety, Security and Liberty

Our City of St. Augustine failed to provide hazardous material training to workers handling 20,000 cubic yards of contaminants dumped into the Old City Reservoir. Florida DEP awaits a response from our City, now due on May 17th. Our City fails to protect employees and our environment. Our City fails to assure that taxpayer dollars are protected, refusing to discuss appointment of an independent Inspector General and not explaining why 13 City offices "do their own thing" in purchasing -- with separate purchasing files and decisions (and no record on the delegation) according to City Attorney JAMES PATRICK WILSON. Our City Commissioners, City Attorney JAMES PATRICK WILSON and City Manager WILLIAM B. HARRISS have a lot of explaining to do.
