Front page article in today's St. Augustine Record about a Flagler College Town and Gown Task Force meeting. No advance notice on City's calendar. http://www.staugustinegovernment.com/the-city/city-calendar.cfm No advance notice on The Flagler College Town and Gown Task Force Facebook page. Pitiful. Our City Manager, JOHN PATRICK REGAN, P.E., has been allowed to do another end-run around Sunshine law requirements. Enough.
His last foray and sashay out of the Sunshine was with the First America Foundation, Inc., which he and then-Mayor JOSEPH LESTER BOLES, JR. cooked up as a way of outsourcing the 450th. We stopped them, with eighteen of us hiring Holland & Knight.
The saga continues.
As I once explained to a reporter with The New York Times, St. Augustine resembles "Twin Peaks" with beaches.
Enough corruption and lawbreaking.
Enough slow dancing with Flagler College.
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!
