We do not need another Daiquiri Deck particullarly on Lido. The current Pavilion must be saved. The proposed project will increase traffic andante make it difficult for those who live on Lido.

Enough of the elite high priced vision of Lido Beach and Pavilion. We love the funky casual feel that's there right now. Improve the bathrooms, extend the snack bar, but otherwise leave it be! Please!

It is important to keep the history and tradition for Lido Beach Pavilion.

Please keep in mind the citizens of Sarasota! Private interests will make money, but at the expense of full time Sarasota residents who enjoy the quieter and more laid-back Lido over busy Siesta Key.

STOP lining pockets and the over-commercialization of Florida's public beaches.

Can’t happen. There is no place hardly to get to the beach now. It has to remain public

Outrageous this being done. The lido beach pavilion is a public space created to serve the public. It needs to stay that way!

please do not allow the new owners to build a restaurant and do not allow private cabanas.

Don’t ruin the laid back lido vibe with this tourist trap. It’s obvious this is aimed specifically for tourists. No local would pay $100 a day for a cabana. Lido and the pavilion are perfect just the way they are, please don’t ruin either by letting these changes take place. Don’t allow money and greed to take over our beaches.

Been coming to Lido Beach for 22 years and if this happens it will be time to find another destination.

County should not sell out to private developers. Look at what NYC has accomplished by revitalizing it’s waterfront, parks and popular tourist attractions.

We do not need over-developed public beach facilities. It is most important to keep this important recreational place accessible to all!

Public beaches do not need full liquor unless you like trash of all kinds in the sand!

Please don’t ruin another place on the key. You have ruined countless places throughout Sarasota and now this? The whole reason is for the wealthy as usual... STOP THE MADNESS NOW!

Beaches should always be public with respect to the people that can afford to live and vacation on our beaches. Our tax dollars pay for restoration and upkeep. Therefore we as citizens should be allowed to use and access our beaches.
