Whetstones' Spite Fence

Davis Shores and Anastasia island residents are right to protest VIRGINIA WHETSTONE-MAGUIRE's hideous fence, erected ON our restored 1927-style Bridge of Lions, listed on the National Register of Historic Places. 
The solid wooden fence detracts from the view of our waterfront from the bridge -- wrought iron would have worked, as at the Florida School for the Deaf and Blind.
The ugly wood fence at the southeast end of the Bridge of Lions is nothing more than a "spite fence," retaliation by disgruntled frequent litigants, now suing the City, claiming the right to build another dock downtown.  
Our City has rightfully spent more than $100,000 in legal fees defending against this bogus case: the WHETSTONE-MAGUIRE family is angry at the City for resisting her indecent demands.  Again, the ugly wooden fence is nothing more than a "spite fence,' a stench in the nostrils of our Nation's Oldest City.
Uglier still are the hateful words directed by WHETSTONE-MAGUIRE's hey-boy against Davis Shores residents, which are being emitted by the Whetstone's hey-boy on a local hate site (Historic City News)  MICHAEL GOLD is not only a local Republican fundraiser, he is a propaganda purveyor, political operative, private investigator and former $700,000 no-bid uniform seller to the City and Sheriff's offices, among other government agenices, who once listed his business address as the Whetstone's office (and previously a Whetstone storage unit). 
Onee again, citizen-activists are being libeled and ridiculed by MICHAEL GOLD f/k/a "MICHAEL TOBIN," the man who raised $250,000 for Sheriff David Shoar to win in 2004 (with no opponents since that time).  "Be not afraid."
Thankfully, St. Augustine City Manager John Patrick Regan wrote Ms. Whetstone and asked for a meeting. 
Stay tuned.
