Coffee with a Commissioner
During Florida City Week, stop by to have coffee with your local City Commissioners. Each one has scheduled a meet-up spot at a local coffee shop and residents are invited to stop in and say hello.
Florida City Week is October 20-26, 2025. And, the City of St. Augustine is joining other cities across the state in recognizing the many services provided by city governments and their contributions to a better quality of life in Florida.
“Florida City Week is an opportunity for us to remind residents of just how much our city does – from the services we provide and the employees who do the work, to the facilities that we own and operate and even a chance to get to know our elected officials.” Communications Director Melissa Wissel commented. “It’s a time for us to engage with residents about local government, encourage them to be active participants in our events, and to stay informed, get involved.”
