One Groovy Ace
“I don’t want to narc them out to the tax collector.”
— St. Augustine Mayor Joe Boles, using the lingo
of a ’60s drug dealer to explain why he’s reluctant to
require people who rent out their homes short-term
to register with the city. He also said he feared the
county property appraiser might yank their
homestead exemptions.
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!
