Dear Historic City News Editor,
Cindy Graves deserves a standing ovation for her hard work and dedication to the city of Jacksonville, especially during the 2016 presidential campaign.
Do you care about your right to know what your government is doing?
On Tuesday, November 22, 2016, during a special noon meeting, St Johns County commissioners-elect Henry Dean and Paul Waldron will be formally sworn in. The newly elected commissioners will serve in their full capacities starting with the regular meeting on December 6th.
On less than five hours’ notice today, City Manager John Regan informed Historic City News that tonight’s meeting of the city commission has been moved from the Alcazar Room, previously announced, to the lobby of the Lightner Museum across the courtyard. The St. Augustine Community Redevelopment Agency meeting, scheduled for 4:30pm today, will be rescheduled.
In today’s St Augustine Record, former reporter Bob Tis makes an editorial comparison of St Augustine mayor Nancy Shaver to former first lady and former presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton.
When Historic City News reporters monitor the general meeting of the St Augustine City Commission on Monday evening, we will be watching with interest the outcome of a proposed resolution (2016-42) that urges Florida legislators to take measures to close a loophole in laws that allow a strawman candidate to close an otherwise open Primary Election.
