White Eagle East Commercial development at SR 64
Summary
A 3.95-acre commercial rezone at a busy East Bradenton intersection brings up to 45,000 square feet of shops and offices closer to the growing Savannah community. Neighbors pushed back over traffic, drainage and wetlands, but the gas station they feared most was dropped from the permitted uses.
