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!

20,000 Cubic Yards--Please Answer Below, Mr. HARRISS
Mr. WILLIAM B. HARRISS, St. Augustine's City Manager, celebrated his eighth anniversary in the job on April 13, 2006. He was coronated by the City Commission eight years earlier, on April 13, 1998, with no national search. The Record published its page one banner headline story on April 13, 2006, HARRISS' eighth anniversary as City Manager, reporting that the FDEP is conducting a criminal investigation of illegal dumping of 20,000 cubic yards of contaminants in our Old City Reservoir. We've been waiting for answers to questions since I sent my first questions on February 24. (The Mayor promised "answers" on February 27). We look forward to hearing from you, Mr. HARRISS. Mr. HARRISS is hereby respectfully invited to post all of his complete answers to my 77 questions about his illegal dumping in the space below (just click on comments to answer my questions, Mr. HARRISS).
