Invitation to the Proposed School Ave Development Meeting

TO: Sarasota Citizens
FROM: Ronald H. Burks
SUBJECT: PROPOSED SCHOOL AVENUE DEVELOPMENT

You are invited to an open discussion for the proposed School Avenue Development. The meeting will be Wednesday evening, January 17 between 7:00 - 9:00 p.m. in the Papaya Meeting Room (2nd flr), Waldemere Medical Plaza (1921 Waldemere Street). This proposed development will be based on a mixed-use concept.

To those of you who attended our prior meetings on October 30, November 28 and most recently December 14, all three discussions were conducted by Jerry Sparkman (Totems Architecture of Sarasota), President of the Gulfcoast Chapter of the American Institute of Architects, and I wish to thank you for your participation in those meetings.

All the prior meetings have been video taped and copies of these three meetings have been provided to the City of Sarasota City Clerk's office (Billy Robinson) and also a set to Kelly Kirschner, President of the Alta Vista Neighborhood. We hope in this way that anyone who was unable to attend the prior meetings can have the opportunity to view the video tape(s) and be able to attend the January 17 meeting with background information.

I hope you will be able to attend our January 17 meeting, and provide your input to our open discussion.

[Note: Kelly Kirshner, Alta Vista President, has asked the City Clerk if the meeting videos could be broadcast on the government affairs channel, Channel 19. Billy Robinson is looking for available times.]
