Longboat Key News
—Henry Kahwaty, a St. Armands resident since 2012, was making his third trip to the podium on the subject since February.
Sarasota, whose barrier island neighborhoods on St. Armands, Lido and Bird Key took some of the region’s worst surge, is not among them.
—The Williams Parker memorandum, dated July 9, covers precisely those three subjects: height and daylight plane restrictions, setback restrictions and lot coverage restrictions.
—The Longboat Key mirror—Then Kahwaty turned to the neighbor across the bridge, and the comparison was not flattering to Sarasota.
Longboat Key has a staff directive and a detailed diagnosis of its own barriers, down to the swimming pools.
