"[T]he Hyperscreens contract for $400,000 screens at the Visitor Information Center was a sole-source contract. The contract was done that way in part to meet a deadline, Regan said."
April 5, 2015 St. Augustine Record article.
The pitiful putative justification emitted by the City of St. Augustine is that it was "sole source" because they were "in a hurry."
Reminds me of the quote from Edward Alvord Ross about "criminaloid" personalities being in a "hurry," and eschewing ethics.
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!

The criminality began long before these outrageously pricey contracts...
...like hijacking a once beneficial to all community center to re-purpose it as a customer marketing center that serves only a greedy Xtrevilist few in the tourist industry, an Xtrevilist few that have turned the city into just another state alcohol and tobacco drug cartel roadside joint!
Life is sure great when you hijack a city!
