City wise to seek federal grants -- thank you, John Regan

Under new management, our City of St. Augustine is wisely seeking millions of dollars federal grants, including grants for our seawall and improving Avenida de Mendendez.
Under a prior City Manager, our City of St. Augustine did not seek federal grants because it meant scrutiny and accountability.
Bring on the grants and bring on the scrutiny -- it's our money.
Federal grants promise to help solve quite a number of problems, from lack of city water and sewer in West Augustine to flooding on the Bayfront.
At long last, it's wonderful to have a City Manager who cares -- after only thirteen months in office, John Regan has shown himself to be an excellent leader, someone who does his homework, has a photographic memory, takes pride in our City's history (including our Civil Rights history) and (most importantly) listens to the people. Thank you, Mr. Regan, for a job well done.
