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!

Obstruction of Public Comments at St. Augustine, Florida City Commission Meeting Last Night
Commissioner Errol Jones last night attempted to obstruct my public comments citing "Clean Up City of St. Augustine, Florida," www.cleanupcityofstaugustine.blogspot.com, demanding that I not show the url on our City document camera during the City Commission meeting. He said Commissioners were already aware of this "private" website and that he did not want me "advertising" it. I told him it is a public website. He was rude and unfriendly, as only a defender of City Manager for Life WILLIAM B. HARRISS could be. In contrast, I used the word "please" some twelve times in asking Commissioners to be more accountable and open.
