The city of Sarasota has scheduled three community meetings to showcase the draft neighborhood traffic calming maps.
These meetings are being held to inform residents, neighborhood leaders and stakeholders about the plans and to receive location-specific feedback prior to finalizing the maps.
The city has been divided into three areas: A, B and C.
Scheduled meetings are Wednesday, March 18 for Area B, Tuesday, March 24 for Area A and Thursday, March 26 for Area C. All three meetings are from 5 to 6:30 p.m. and will be held at locations within those areas.
Area B covers mostly coastal areas including the barrier islands from the north to south ends of the city. Area A includes inland areas largely east of North Tamiami Trail and north of Fruitville Road. Area C largely includes inland and bayfront communities south of Fruitville Road and east of Beneva Road to the northern city limit.
