Thumbs up: St. Augustine Record Editorial Page

Thumbs up

Posted: July 11, 2015 - 12:10am

For the arrival of a first class relic of the Catholic Church which arrived in town this week. The relic is the actual finger of St. Augustine of Hippo, dating back to 430 A.D. It is on loan to the Cathedral Basilica from the Vatican for the city’s 450th celebration, and will remain on display here through September.

For the city’s look at initiating a cooling off period between permitting for demolition of historic structures and the actual demolition. The period allows challenges to be made to demolition decisions, and should not excessively hinder efforts by owners or builders. We have only one history. It’s important to get it right.

For the recent spate of afternoon thundershowers that have lowered the threat of wildfires in St. Johns and adjoining counties.
