Protect Siesta Key from becoming Miami!

Help us stop the County from turning Siesta Key into Miami!
In 2021, Sarasota County Commissioners voted to turn our laid-back island into an overly commercialized mega-hotel zone. This will overcrowd our roads and beaches!
We challenged this decision with the State and in Circuit Court. And WE WON round 1 of the legal challenges! On April 4th, the State ruled that our county's growth laws prohibit mega-sized hotels on our island. My legal fight is not yet finished! The County and developers plan to appeal the state's decision. And we still have a Circuit Court case challenging the county's approval of the mega-hotel buildings.
Siesta Key is a low lying barrier island off the coast of Sarasota, FL. The addition of hundreds of hotel rooms in high rise buildings will negatively impact our beautiful island. We don't need more cars on our two lane road! For more information on our legal challenge, visit our website: www.SiestaKeyCommunity.com
Help us with this fight! Support our efforts to keep our island beautiful and free from mega-hotel skyscrapers.
