Too busy NOW HOW WILL EMERGENCY VEHICLES GET TO THE BEACHES? There are enough VACANT properties that are not as detrimental to traffic, neighborhoods and emergencies Think people !!!

The traffic congestion is already way out of control. "Don't block the box" doesn't work even now. Thanks for your consideration.

This is an extremely congested area now and with any further development would be detrimental to all Sarasota residents, especially the home owners in the area.

This corner already needs police directing traffic, from November till the end of April. Many drivers are frustrated and do not follow the traffic lights due to the overwhelming congestion.

The property needs development, ie: park or parking and transportation to Siesta Beach.

If this project is allowed people will stay away in droves due to the difficulties of over population and congested traffic.

Total traffic nightmare. How are residents of the key supposed to travel on/off - it's already a nightmare in season, if we didn't have to deal with red tide as well it would be really bad even off season.

That corner is valuable and deserves to be developed. But it's also in an already-congested location, so there has to be some more balanced and modest development than Benderson's most recent proposal.

An attractive park providing free trolley transport to the Siesta Key Beach offerings and not adding to the already stressful traffic and congestion!

Proposed density would create major problems for Pine Shores and have a major negative impact for siesta key residents and visitors. Benderson knew what the zoning density was when he purchased the property. Please use your common sense and not allow this to happen.

Adds too much density to an area that already depends for access and through-traffic on an already oft-congested US 41 - Stickney Pt. Rd. intersection

CG zone density is enough. Benderson will make plenty of money and local residents will not suffer unduly.

Our family owns a condo at Gulf and Bay - the traffic at peak times is crazy - I don't see a need to add/change anything.

Too much growth, in an already overcrowded space

I'm not against developing the lot. It just needs to fit into the area without causing problems.

This area could never survive additional traffic

This development will create more congestion on already gridlocked Stickney Point. Please do not condone further impediments to our beautiful beaches.
