In secret, behind locked gates, our Nation's Oldest City dumped a landfill in a lake (Old City Reservoir), while emitting sewage in our rivers and salt marsh. Organized citizens exposed and defeated pollution, racism and cronyism. We elected a new Mayor. We're transforming our City -- advanced citizenship. Ask questions. Make disclosures. Demand answers. Be involved. Expect democracy. Report and expose corruption. Smile! Help enact a St. Augustine National Park and Seashore. We shall overcome!

VIEW NOVEMBER 13 CITY COMMISSION ON CABLE TV MONDAY, DECEMBER 3 AT 7 PM on GOVERNMENT TV (CHANNEL 3)
Charles Dickens' Ebenezeer Scrooge, unlike St. Augustine City Commissioners, had his epiphany. Our St. Augustine City Commissioners have not repented yet.
For a look at what your City is doing to you, sit in front of a cable TV Monday night, December 3 from 7-10:45 PM and watch what our City did at 8 AM on November 13th. They thought you'd never get the chance. Sorry -- I did not take no for an answer and the tape is being shown tomorrow night, Monday, December 3 at 7 PM.
Watch Commissioner BURK skewer MAYOR JOSEPH LEROY BOLES, JR. for privatizing the Nights of Lights and tree-lighting celebration for his own political agenda.
Watch Commissioners kick the artists out of the Plaza de la Consttucion, breaking their previous promises by city government.
Watch Commissioners (only three left) rubberstamp a controversial settlement with the Florida DEP on illegal dumping, denying the public the right to speak after the City's Chief Operating Office, John Regan, told St. Augustine Record Opinion Editor Margo Pope that the public would be welcome to speak on the settlement.
As TV programs go, it's not as warm as the Charlie Brown Christmas Special, which airs opposite. But you need to watch to see the screwy, skeweed, discouraging Scrooge mentality that has our city of St. Augustine in a death group.
Just say no to governmental groupthink and mediocrity.
City Manager WILLIAM HARRISS must resign for his environmental crimes, including dumping the contents of our old city dump into the Old City Reservoir and blaming his subordinates. It's time for him to go.
