Yet another neighborhood short term rental, I see 1302 Roberts Bay Ln, Sarasota, FL 34242 has already been reported. Both of these houses have been renting weekly since July 4th. With a pandemic going on our neighborhood has been overrun with visitors. 5045 has new people from PA, and 1302 also with new people and look to have over 10, with multiple cars parked all over the property area.

UDC 124-121 requires pedestrian paths from ALL entrances on site to building if over 20,000 sq ft. Tower built in 2017 over 25,000 sq ft listed on permit application and no pedestrian path from Honore. Honore is designated as a major arterial road, has a gate, entrance sign and is not considered an entrance for only service or delivery vehicles. Why is Benderson and SANCA allowed to exclude connectivity from Honore including boat ramp on small West lake? Is it because it does not serve their purpose for rowing? They certainly use it and close it whenever they have an event. First entrance they close. If it was not considered an entrance why close it during their events? Public was assured during rezone community meetings this entrance would have sidewalks and would remain as always an entrance. Parks and Rec director stated and is a part of documentation in rezone approval.
UDC also states pedestrian paths SHALL be provided from building entrance to surrounding streets, transit stops, external sidewalks and out parcels. There you have it. Surrounding street yes. Transit stop yes. External sidewalk yes. Out parcel yes Previous request under sidewalk issue marked resolved and closed without comment

Junk all over, more than 4 vehicles, storing jacuzzi outside, RV being worked on and possibly inhabited, running a business out of thus property.

No pedestrian pathway from Honore along Athletes Drive to connect lake fishing, boat ramp, ADA space to rest of facilities in the park. Archived from view without resolution. Waiting on ADA interpretation as I have sent applicable requirements to ADA staff several times over several weeks without response on if ADA office feels not required even though confirmed by parks was required when Benderson tower built under Land Development regulations even though staff overlooked the requirement on S&D submittal at that time.

Arterial street buffer never installed. Previously reported and removed from see click fix without resolution. Code 7.3.6.

Two weeks of trash in black bags piled in the street.

Previously reported and removed from see click and fix that developer has not installed all stop lines, stop bars etc on the Island. One area in particular is a 3 way with nothing creating a serious safety issue. This has been noted by staff previously but has not been completed by SANCA or Benderson. No one cares if there is an accident? As per UDC all the developer shall complete the installation of all required traffic control devices ........prior to issuance of any certificate of occupancy for the development. Tower has had CO for 1 1/2 years. Numerous other CO's in development.

Does not meet ADA. Parking should be nearest building must be so you do not have to walk behind other vehicles or have ADA path. Path does not go to building unless you go up through parking space assuming no car there.

This is #8 for short term rental in this property since FEBRUARY 28. Code enforcement and deed restrictions state 30 days in between rentals. The math of 8 rentals since FEBRUARY 28 doesn't compute. This is obviously an illegal business happening in a residential neighborhood that is NOT deeded for this.

For rent sign has been in front of this residence for six months. This not a temporary real estate ‘for sale or lease sign’, but has become a permanent ugly rental sign in front of this house. This house also rents illegally every week.

Existing trailer does not have permit.
