Changes

'''Save Our City''' was a grassroots political action group committee (PAC) created to overturn the [[Pensacola City Council]]'s decision to build the [[Community Maritime Park]] (CMP). Its leading members were [[Charles Fairchild]] (who was also active in the group [[Citizens Against Trillium]], which succeeded in stopping the earlier [[Festival Park]] project) and dissenting City Councilman [[Marty Donovan]]. Other prominent members and allies included [[Luke McCoy]], [[Melanie Nichols]], [[C. C. Elebash]], [[P. A. Ucci]], and [[Tommy White]].

The ==Opposition==A counterpart PAC, [[Friends of the Waterfront Park]], was formed to advance the pro-Park agenda. Funded primarily by [[Quint Studer]], some of the Friends of the Waterfront Park ads invoked a parody of Save Our City called "Stop Our City," which was headed by two cartoon characters, [[Chuckie & Donno]] (references to Fairchild and Donovan). [[Rick Outzen]] posted the ads on [[Rick's Blog|his blog]] and later, with the ''[[Independent News]]'' staff, created a second parody of the groupcalled "Better Save Our City." Save Our City's efforts were defeated in the [[September 5]], [[2006]] referendum.
