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!

When will they ever learn?
In 2007, Robin Nadeau, Don Girvan and Mosquito Control Commissioners Jeanne Moeller, John Sundeman and I, et al., worked for nine months to halt an illegal no-bid helicopter purchase. It was an education for St. Johns County government officials. Or so we thought. Now we're told that because the City of St. Augustine was in a hurry, it spent $400,000 on no-bid hyper screens, finding them "sole source." Enough.
