Conference Center on the Bayfront Underwater?

It appears that the City Commissioners have heard the public voices that say the proposed conference center should not be located on public bayfront land. Today, our commissioners indicated that the Cultural District is not the place to put a conference center. We applaud this decision.

This land is one of the last great places in Sarasota. Residents and visitors continue to appreciate the unique characteristics that Sarasota is known for: cultural activities within a beautiful, small town, waterfront community.

Saving our last public waterfront land for all of us to enjoy should be at the top of our elected officials' priority list.
