Seven (7) times St. Johns County voters rightly defeated a regressive "penny" sales tax increase in 2022, 2008, 2004, 1998, 1996, 1994, 1988. We don't need a 15% sales tax increase. Our one-party run corrupt County lacks adequate internal controls, resulting in $786,785 in Sheriff's office embezzlement over five (5) years, and only a small $325,000 out of court settlement with malfeasant auditor. Let's work together to ask questions, demand answers and expect democracy at upcoming TRIM public hearings, commencing September 5.
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!
