Opening of Two Libraries on Sunday Afternoons as Pilot Program Wins Initial County Commission Support
Board members also hear updates on projects planned over the next five years, including new Central Energy Plant and realignment of Cattlemen Road/Palmer Boulevard/Packinghouse Road ‘triangle’
With its typically more intense budget workshops just weeks away — starting on June 18 — the Sarasota County Commission already has provided staff direction on a number of issues, including funding a six-month pilot program to open two libraries on Sundays.
Among other priorities are the continuing work on the Central Energy Plant in downtown Sarasota, which provides heating, air conditioning and ventilation (HVAC) services to a number of county facilities, including the jail; new pickleball courts on Pompano Avenue near the Sarasota County Fairgrounds; and more bus shelter construction.
