Top issues during term (20)(Public Safety)
Citywide code enforcement docket of 36 cases
Nine-figure-adjacent tallies across cases — running fines up to $250/day accumulate on dormant properties.
Ben Franklin Drive lights still dark until 2027
Total project cost $718,463, with the city's $118,426 share coming from city hurricane reserves rather than FEMA funds.
Proposed changes to public comment and agenda rules
Police Collective Bargaining Agreements
Supplemental appropriations across multiple funds cover FY2026 salary increases.
Treatment of Parking Staff and Public Conduct
Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety Enforcement Grant
A $31,075 grant with no city match required.
School zone and red-light camera revenues
Police spending rises $2.7 million; camera fine revenues are falling as driving behavior improves.
Police 2025 performance and new technology
Drone beta program funded by a private donation, not the city budget.
Personnel code modernization
Could save the city severance exposure tied to legacy director contracts.
St. Armands/Lido utility undergrounding
No assessments imposed yet; costs per parcel to be determined via a methodology consultant.
Noise Ordinance Enforcement in Newtown
The study could run between about $175,000 and $250,000 depending on scope.
Hurricane Preparedness 2026
Downtown Noise and Sound Ordinance
The sound study could cost an estimated $250,000-$300,000, which critics called unnecessary if a plainly audible standard were adopted now.
South Poinsettia Park Street Lighting District
No billing yet; future assessments would fund FPL street lighting in the neighborhood.
Sarasota High School neighborhood noise
Ordinance for permit enforcement against illegal industrial operators
Fines of up to $1,000 per day possible under the proposed framework.
Ziegler public records litigation continues
Records requests are billed at actual cost, not for profit, so they are a budgeted city service rather than a revenue source.
Ethics training for city officials
Salam and Jackson v. City of Sarasota lawsuit
Continuing to litigate means ongoing legal costs for the city instead of a settlement payout — the total exposure isn't public.
