Editor: I suggest the St. Augustine City Commission pass another ordinance changing the name of the city from St. Augustine to "Sin Augustine."

How could five commissioners be so stupid. Don't community standards mean anything? It is obvious from community protests and letters that very few people want adult zones in St. Augustine.

To allow adult zones at the north and south entrances to our city makes no sense at all. The first impression a visitor is going to see these adult zones. Granted, by law, these places have a right to conduct their business, but why make it so obvious?

The city commissioners have ensured property values will decrease throughout the U.S. 1 corridor within the city limits. It seems that after election, the city commissioners suffer from the same disease that the predecessors did deficiency of common sense.
