Photo of unresponsive, irresponsible City Commissioners DONALD CRICHLOW, ERROL JONES, GEORGE GARDNER, SUSAN BURK and Mayor JOSEPH LEROY BOLES, JR. They're still not answering questions about dumping the contents of the old city dump into the OlD City Reservoir. They voted to honor our City Manager in the midst of a pending criminal investigation. In its putative first investigation, FDEP criminal law investigators didn't bother to interview City Commissioners DONALD CRICHLOW (now Vice Chair), ERROL JONES, then-Mayor GEORGE GARDNER, SUSAN BURK (then Vice Mayor) and Mayor JOSEPH LEROY BOLES, JR.
With your help, we're going to clean up the City of St. Augustine, Florida.
It takes a village -- we still believe in a place called Hope!
There have been 500 Days of Coverups on City of St. Augustine Dumping Entire Contents of Illegal Old City Dump Into Our Old City Reservoir
Some 500 days ago, we first started asking then-Mayor GEORGE GARDNER of the City of St. Augustine and other Commissioners about our City's illegal dumping of the entire contents of the old city dump into the Old City Reservoir.
Now, 500 days later, the coverup continues, with now final DEP order, no criminal prosecution, and no answers to dozens of questions asked in private and in public meetings since February 24, 2006.
On that date, Mayor GARDNER told us it was only "clean fill.":
Of course, as EPA expert John Marler established, "there are no bedsprings in clean fill..
Nor is there any reason to believe that the government of the City of St. Augustine is any better prepared to protect environment, safety, health and the public fisc today than it was 500 days ago.
We need and deserve thorough reforms, starting with a new St. Augustine City Manager picked through a national search, the same as the County Administrator.
What do y'all reckon?
