Dear Historic City News Editor:
Our City and its politics are starting to seem like an episode out of Boss (a gangster TV show on Netflix). All we need is Kelsey Grammar as the lead character and all the elements of a Boss episode are in motion:

I learned early on that you can buy a lot of things, but trust must be earned. In the matter of the 91-93 Coquina Avenue land grab, St Augustine City Manager John P Regan Sr and his hand-picked accomplices have betrayed the public’s trust through concealment, half-truths, and outright lies.

Dear Historic City News editor:
Attached you will find two pictures of a vagrant that is well known to the St Augustine Police Department. She’s frequently warned and arrested, she’s been repeatedly treated by first responders and transported to Flagler Hospital.
Two days before the first meeting of the St Augustine City Commission this year, before the mayor or any of the other three commissioners had met in the sunshine to discuss the Coquina Avenue Land Grab publicly, Commissioner Leanna Freeman was posting on social media and reaching out by e-mail to ask her followers to share their support, proclaiming, “I need three votes Monday”.
Letter: Fix this mistake before it happens
Nancy Shaver, Mayor
City of St Augustine
To the people I serve,
Last fall you elected me to a third term as your Mayor, trusting me to lead us in working together to make the City the best it can be. And now, I need your help to make things right.
Dear Historic City News readers:
Remember on January 14, 2019 when Michael Cullum, Public Works Director for the City of St Augustine, told the City Commission that the city “did not have legal access” to the Coquina Creek outfall?

Dear Historic City News editor:
On Wednesday, January 23, 2019, I requested a copy of the rental agreement or lease for office space between St. Johns County and the “Friends of A1A Scenic and Historic Coastal Byway” located at 2175 Mizell Road St. Augustine Florida.

Dear Historic City News editor:
After being away for only a week, we learned on January 15, 2019, that there will be a city park next door to us. How can the city decide this so quickly?
