There are some powerful people in this community who feel that the way to "improve" downtown is to eliminate parking spaces and worst of all, force our shoppers to parallel park! The merchants of downtown Sarasota are 100% against this. We need the public's help, you, our customers, to fight against this misguided attempt at "improvement." Please take a minute to sign our petition, which we will be forwarding on to our city's leaders on January 2, 2012.
The volume of support confirms that our community prioritizes accessible retail access over the proposed street redesign. I am currently finalizing the formal brief to present to the city planning commission during their upcoming session.

This is going to kill local business. Nobody wants to deal with that stress when they just want to grab a quick coffee or shop.

Sarasota needs to focus on fixing the real problems instead of wasting money on stuff that nobody asked for. Stop making it so difficult to support our shops.

Parallel parking on Main is a nightmare. Traffic is bad enough without people blocking the lane trying to squeeze into a spot.

Bad for traffic. Bad for shoppers. Just leave it how it is.
