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!

CYA C.P.A. Blocks Audit?
Running away from fiduciary duty?
C.P.A. Todd Neville, St. Augustine City Commissioner, is blocking a 450th audit with flummery and PR advice to City Hall and embattled City Manager JOHN PATRICK REGAN, P.E., who is Neville's friend.
Neville is a walking conflict of interest with ties to the wrongdoers and status quo:
1. Republican Campaign treasurer for Flagler College Chancellor WILLIAM L. PROCTOR, longtime state representative.
2. Accounting partner of City Finance Director MEREDITH BREIDENSTEIN's spouse.
3. Wedding officiant was ex-Mayor JOSEPH LESTER BOLES, Jr.
4. Wife HEATHER NEVILLE is city delegate to Northeast Florida Transportation Planning Organization.
(more later)
Todd plans to run for mayor next year. How many conflicts of interest can one commissioner have.
