1 month ago Share The city, county and state are collaborating on a new public transportation route, though city officials are pushing to make it more expansive.
This summer, residents and tourists will be able to take a trolley from downtown Sarasota to St. Armands Circle. (Or a bus with a wrap designed to look like a trolley, at least.)
Sarasota County, the Florida Department of Transportation and the city of Sarasota are partnering on a transportation service linking downtown to the barrier islands. The state provided a $1.5 million grant to fund the service for the next three years. Although some details are still subject to change, the city expects the trolley route to begin in July.
3 weeks ago Share From Main Street parallel parking to a garage at the SCAT transfer station site, merchants and property owners are discussing long-term strategies for reshaping the city’s commercial center.
Mark Kauffman knows the idea is ambitious, but he thinks it’s worth the time and effort to fully explore it and perhaps make it a reality.
Kauffman, a downtown property owner and member of the Downtown Improvement District, sees an opportunity to dramatically reshape the 1500 block of First Street, home to City Hall and the Sarasota County Area Transit bus transfer station. He envisions consolidating several properties, including the bus station and surface parking lots next to City Hall, into the foundation for a large mixed-use facility that works to address multiple community needs.
On one-year anniversary of COVID-19, Sarasota wrangles over mask resolution
SARASOTA – Last weekend marked the one-year anniversary of the first confirmed case of COVID-19 in Florida. On Monday in Sarasota, health experts, residents and elected officials at City Hall wrangled over whether the city should endorse guidelines for public health during the pandemic set forth by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
While city commissioners unanimously supported a resolution that simply acknowledges that “face coverings and social distancing guidelines” are “necessary to combat COVID-19,” it came with considerable backlash from area residents.
At least 12 speakers espoused conspiracy theories and debunked science, arguing that face coverings either don’t work or that the COVID-19 pandemic, which has infected 25,803 people and killed more than 740 in Sarasota County, is not enough of a health risk to implement public health safety measures.
