Dear Mayor Boles and Commissioners:
Will each of you please post on the City's website and send me a list of all property in which you, your families, your loved ones or your clients have any beneficial interest in St. Augustine and St. Johns County, including limited partnerships and stock ownership? Please sign, date and swear to the disclosures before a Notary.
This will empower the people to discuss the proposed adult entertainment districts for St. Augustine and decide whether or not any of you should recuse yourself from discussing particular locations where you, your families, loved ones or clients may have an interest.
As my political theory professor at Georgetown University, Jose Sorzano Ilater President Reagan's Deputy UN Ambassador under Jeanne Kirkpatrick) taught us, "ideas have consequences."
The idea that you would inflict an adult entertainment district in our Nation's Oldest (European-founded) City, blocks away from where the first Roman Catholic Mass was said, has consequences. The publci has a right to know all pertinent details.
Cui bono? (Who benefits?). How would the proposal affect you, your famlies, your loved ones and your clients? Please be complete and thorough in your disclousres.
As Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. said, St. Augustine is the most lawless city in America. The people have a right to an honest, open, transparent government and to know about property interests by you, your families, your loved ones and your clients before there is any further voting or discussion of the proposed St. Augustine Red Light District.
I look forward to your complete, truthful, candid sworn disclosures under oath.
Thank you.
With kindest regards,
Ed Slavin
