Contrary to the Record's latest wimpy, limp editorial (below), the City of St. Augustine's archaeology law is too weak. It doesn't allow the city to stop anything. On Red House Bluff, ROBERT MICHAEL GRAUBARD destroyed a 3000-4000 year old Indian village with impunity, allowed to do so by the city and state. Never again!
That's why we need a St. Augustine National Historical Park, National Seashore and National Scenic Coastal Parkway. Anything less is just whistlin' Dixie.
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!
