“The epitaph says, for those who can read it, that he is a saint and martyr who shall breathe again and shall in wondrous joy inherit and flourish, shall wear a crown and be seated in the kingdom. And I have heard it said that this must be so-if by killing men and shedding blood, by damning souls and causing deaths, by trusting evil counsels, by setting fires,…seizing lands and encouraging pride, by kindling evil and quenching good, by killing women and slaughtering children, a man can in this world win Jesus Christ, certainly Count Simon wears a crown and shines in heaven above. “
–From Stephen O’Shea’s “The Perfect Heresy: The Revolutionary Life and Death of the Medieval Cathars” (2000).

Flagler Beach Is Open For Business: A1A Construction Update:
FlaglerLive is providing weekly updates to year-long construction on and near State Road A1A in Flagler Beach as the Florida Department of Transportation rebuilds a 1.5-mile segment from South 9th Street to South 22nd Street, and builds a sea wall at the north end of town. These updates are provided through DOT or local officials. If you have any relevant information or images, you’re welcome to email them to the editor here.
Last Updated: June 3
Protecting Turtles
Now that turtle nesting season has started in the Flagler Beach area, local Turtle Patrol volunteers are checking the beach within the project limits every day to locate any new nests. In Segment 3, north of North 18th Street, work cannot begin until the beach is checked. If a nest is discovered, the nest will be marked, and work will not be allowed within 10 feet of the nest, as specified in the environmental permits issued for this project.
The Turtle Patrol also is monitoring the beach in the project limits of Segment 1, from South 25th Street to South 22nd Street, where plans call for dune revetment involving additional sand and plants.
Segment 1 South 25th Street to South 22nd Street):
Clearing and placing sand is complete on this segment. The contractor expects to begin planting new vegetation next week. This activity may require single lane closures with flagging operations.
Segment 2 (South 22nd Street to South 9th Street):
The contractor is completing the necessary testing and certifications on the new water line between South 20th Street and South 17th Street. Once that process is complete, the contractor will be switching service onto the new line. This is expected to begin the week of June 10. As customers are transferred to the new line, a short interruption of service is necessary, typically less than 30 minutes. The contractor is working to switch businesses over during non-working hours. The contractor will attempt to notify residents and businesses prior to any interruption of service.
Water main installation is also occurring between South 14th and South 16th streets. Work on the French drain system is taking place between South 12th and South 13th streets.
The contractor also will be constructing new sidewalk between South 13th and South 14 streets, and South 16th and South 18th streets over the next few weeks.
Segment 3 (North 18th Street to Osprey Drive) Project Update:
Drilling of the concrete piles for the new secant wall continues north of Ocean Marina Drive. This is followed by construction of the concrete wall cap. Once the cap is finished, the dune sand is reworked to achieve the designated slope so that vegetation can be planted. The first plants are expected to be put in next week.

U.S. 1 and Old Dixie Highway Roundabout Construction Updates:
FlaglerLive is providing weekly updates to the planned 15-month, $4.1 million construction of a roundabout at U.S. 1 and Old Dixie Highway. The project started in late January and is scheduled for completion by spring 2020.
The Florida Department of Transportation will be closing Old Dixie Highway and C.R. 325 at U.S. 1 on Monday night, March 4, from about 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. The closure is needed to allow the contractor to make improvements to the crossover at the temporary intersection. U.S. 1 will remain open in both directions.

In Florida and in State Government:
Note: Some proceedings below can be followed live on the Florida Channel. Most legislative proceedings can be followed through the Senate or House websites.
CLEMENCY ISSUES CONSIDERED: Gov. Ron DeSantis and the state Cabinet — Attorney General Ashley Moody, Agriculture Commissioner Nikki Fried and Chief Financial Officer Jimmy Patronis — will meet as the state Clemency Board. (Wednesday, 8 a.m. Cabinet Meeting Room, the Capitol.)
SCHOOL SAFETY AT ISSUE: The Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Public Safety Commission will meet in Broward County, with topics expected to include public-safety communications systems. The commission was formed after the February 2018 mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland and has made recommendations about bolstering school safety. (Wednesday, 8:30 a.m., BB&T Center, Chairman’s Club, 1 Panther Parkway, Sunrise.)
JUDGE FACES REPRIMAND: The Florida Supreme Court will take up four issues, including a public reprimand for a Broward County circuit judge because of improper conduct during a criminal trial. Justices in April accepted a recommendation from the state Judicial Qualifications Commission that Judge Dennis Daniel Bailey violated the state’s Code of Judicial Conduct and should be disciplined. The disciplinary proceeding stems from Bailey’s conduct during an April 2018 criminal trial in which two defense attorneys were trying to make arguments during a sidebar conference. Bailey became frustrated and ordered a courtroom deputy to approach the bench and remove one of the defense attorneys, with the order made in the presence of the jury, according to the Supreme Court’s April order. Bailey also subsequently denied a motion that he disqualify himself from the case. The Supreme Court order listed a series of judicial canons that he violated. (Wednesday, 9 a.m., Florida Supreme Court, 500 South Duval St., Tallahassee.)
BROWARD SHERIFF CASE TEED UP: Senate Special Master Dudley Goodlette will hold a prehearing conference in an appeal by suspended Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel. Gov. Ron DeSantis suspended Israel, accusing the sheriff of “neglect of duty” and “incompetence” related, at least in part, to the mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in February 2018. Israel requested a hearing from the Senate, which has the authority to remove or reinstate officials suspended by the governor. As special master, Goodlette will hold a hearing and make a recommendation to the Senate. The hearing is scheduled to start June 18. (Wednesday, 10 a.m., 401 Senate Office Building, the Capitol.)
MEMORIAL HELD FOR D’ALEMBERTE: A memorial service will be held for Talbot “Sandy” D’Alemberte, a former Florida State University president and law-school dean, who died May 20 at age 85. D’Alemberte served in the state House from 1966 to 1972, was a prominent lawyer in Florida for decades and was a former president of the American Bar Association. (Wednesday, 2 p.m., Florida State University, Ruby Diamond Concert Hall, 222 South Copeland St., Tallahassee.)
