I grew up here and I’m tired of being pushed out by greed. This isn’t right and we all know it isn’t.

Sarasota doesn’t need more parking, we need scooters, bikes, trolley’s. Marie Selby would be mortified if she knew her gardens were touched for something like a parking garage.

This change would not be for the better.

Marie Selby wanted plants and gardens this keep it that way out of respect to her legacy. It was her donation and contribution to decide how she wanted the land to be used.

Please consider the nature of Selby for their project. We need to keep the beauty of this garden to keep people in Sarasota and visiting this beautiful park.

We need some quiet moments in a garden and beauty, not more concrete buildings, money is not everything Sarasota.

Selby and it's fans have atrocious ideas and very bad taste. They seek merely to usurp. A 'Sysco' restaurant on top of a garage ? Gauche!

Selby is a uniquely beautiful spot in Sarasota and needs to be kept whole. It is a park that makes Sarasota special. It would be a crime to take an acre away for a 7 story eyesore!

Absolutely NO!!! We have reached capacity with all the parking garages. We have reached capacity with million $ condos. Enough is enough.

Overgrowth and overdevelopment has already made that part of Sarasota ridiculously strained. Please don’t allow greedy developers to ruin the town in the name of so-called progress.
