Letter: City wasting thousands of gallons of water

Dear Editor:
I am writing to Historic City News because, once again, my neighborhood is being flooded by an out-of-control fire hydrant that has apparently been fitted to dump thousands of gallons of treated water into the street several times every day.



Historic City News attended a press conference called by the St Johns County Sheriff’s Office and cooperating agencies who participated in a recent 7-day dragnet that identified a dozen men who attempted to lure children they believed were between 10 and 15-years-old to meet them for sex.
Tongues are wagging in St Augustine Beach over the visitation of a black billboard that proclaims in bold gothic lettering that Islam is doomed by its own doctrine; the appearance of which has angered many, drawn apathy from some, and has been supported by others.
Historic City News readers are invited to load up the truck this Saturday, April 16th, from 10:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m., for a trip to the Florida Agricultural Museum for a day on the 1880’s family farm; complete with beautifully restored antique tractors and hayrides around the museum grounds on a tractor drawn wagon.
Years ago, the Bureau of Printing and Engraving discontinued production of denominations of U.S. currency greater than $100.00 and soon implemented enhanced security measures to thwart counterfeiters from reproducing notes of all denominations.
With City Commissioner Todd Neville leaving the meeting because of a declared conflict of interest, Mayor Shaver and the remaining commissioners reached a unanimous quasi-judicial decision; confirming denial of a use by exception to develop a mini-warehouse at the intersection of SR-A1A and SR-312.
