The City of Sarasota is built on the sharing of art, music, food, thriving businesses, and all forms of entertainment. One of the main goals of coming together with all of these artists, local businesses, and restaurants is to bring more people and revenue into our community. It is our belief that when more people know about Sarasota the more we all thrive. 

With any city or town, especially in the downtown setting, there will always be a certain degree of noise "pollution". Recent noise complaints have threatened our ability to continue supporting the lifestyle of Sarasota. Under constant threats of fines, citations, and court orders there are very real obstacles being put up preventing businesses from flourishing and supporting entertainment. 

We, the undersigned, respectfully urge you not to prevent us from keeping Sarasota's TOURISM-BASED ECONOMY ALIVE.
