At last night's Lincolnville Neighborhood Association forum, approximately 50 people watched as Commissioner ERROL JONESS, bragged about himself and otherwise said nothing of substance for three minutes, then left -- with JONES arrogantly refusing to be part of the debate. JONES is being challenged by LNA VP Judith Seraphin.
City of St. Augustine Parking and Traffic Committee Chair DAN SULLLIVAN arrived late and insulted questioners, defending the White Elephant Parking Garage. SULLVAN actually said, in response to a question about St. Augustine having been called "the most lawless city in America" that St. Augustine was a "Paradise." Others in the audience and on the panel disagreed, including Leeanna Freeman and Judith Seraphin, who noted the lack of equality and the large number of businesses in city-owned and state-owned buildings that do not employ any African-Americans.
St. Augustine Mayor JOSEPH LEROY BOLES, JR. refused to attend the LNA meeting, claiming to have an out-of-town visitor (unnamed).. BOLES is the one who (with Commissioner ERROL JONES) pushed through the aborted plan to bring solid waste back to Lincolnville.
