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!

St. Augustine Beach Disrespects Disabled Veterans Every Year
The City of St. Augustine Beach has an annual Veterans' Day event, marred every year by blocking disabled parking spaces and covering signs, in violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act. These are federal laws, and there are also state laws, all disrespected by ineffectual St. Augustine Beach City "Manager" BRUCE MAX ROYLE.
Where ADA is concerned, the City of St. Augustine Beach is a lawbreaker. Here's what Justice Louis Brandeis said about government lawbreakers:
The City of St. Augustine Beach paid $175 for one hour of "work" by putative "volunteer" WILLIAM JONES, disgraced ex-Sheriff's civil process server and President of the dodgy nonprofit St. Augustine Beach Civic Association, Inc.
Four out of five Commissioners attended -- Mayor Undine George, Vice Mayor Margaret England, Maggie Kostka and Donald Samora. Disgraced ex-Mayor RICHARD BURTT O'BRIEN did not attend -- O'BRIEN hardly ever attends City events.
