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!

Speculators in St. Augustine Are 21st Century Pirates
Our town is being ruined by greedy speculators, manyof them limited liability companies (LLCs) that St. Augustine and St. Johns County do not require to disclose their owners. The effects in the historic community of Lincolnville are appalling and dangerous. See Tony Seraphin's letter (below). Foreign investors, including those from India, Korea and Australia, are uglifying our town and county. The answer is the proposed St. Augustine National Historical Park, National Seashore and National Scenic Coastal Highway (See below). It's time to stop the madness and work to preserve, protect and defend our community in time for the 450th birthday of St. Augustine (2015) and 500th birthday of Florida (2013).
