At 8:35 p.m. Friday evening, the Florida Highway Patrol informed local Historic City News reporters that they are monitoring a wildfire around I-95 and C-214 which may affect roadways in St. Johns County.
Historic City News was notified by Florida Department of Transportation Public Information Officer, Debbie Delgado, that traffic will be impacted at the following
St Augustine and St Johns County locations where roadwork is being conducted.
Be alert to lane closures and temporary detours, as well as increased congestion in these areas. FDOT employees and contractors will be working on the roadways and need your full attention.
Lee Geanuleas attended the San Marco Avenue parking and re-striping plan meeting Wednesday night and filed this report with Historic City News yesterday.
St. Johns County Supervisor of Elections, Vicky C. Oakes, reported to Historic City News, that candidate qualifying just ended at noon for the regularly scheduled Town of Hastings General Election set for November 7th.
Historic City News was contacted this morning by Patrick McGee, the owner of McGee and Sons, a local lawn care and home services contractor. Although McGee says he has work in the city, he can’t afford to help those customers because, when he brings his equipment to their residences, he faces parking tickets with fines greater than what he charges for the service.

Dear Historic City News editor:
The Putnam County sheriff’s detectives in charge of investigating my stepson’s homicide decided, for whatever reason, not to complete their investigation and crafted a false report to close the case in November 2015.
