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!

Big Win for Historic Preservation
Last night, City Commissioners twice unanimously voted that I have legal standing to contest demolition of historic Echo House. Appeal will be heard December 8th.
Thank you, City Commissioners.
Never again in Our Nation's Oldest City will an historic building be demolished by government order without citizens having the right to an appeal and vote by City Commission.
We shall overcome!
