Siesta Beach Improvements
Following two years of public input from stakeholders,
residents, business owners and others, the Sarasota
 County
Commission approved the Siesta Beach Concept Plan May 12, 2009.
Several goals and objectives were outlined by the community and
staff throughout the park planning process for Siesta Beach.
These were to
enhance landscaping to improve the overall
appearance of our world class beach, improve the appearance of
and provide additional parking areas, provide for safe
pedestrian connections/access, utilize Low Impact Design (LID)
and sustainable design techniques and better utilization of
space for improved access and use of recreational amenities. The
county is now under contract with Kimley-Horn and Associates,
Inc. to initiate design, engineering and permitting for the
Siesta Beach improvements.
For additional information

improvements, contact Project Manager Kim Humphrey at
