Beach Parking for Siesta Key

Sarasota County commissioners had a 3-2 vote in favor of instituting parking fees for all 9 county beaches. This includes the 3 main beaches in Siesta Key, Siesta Public beach, Crescent Beach, and Turtle Beach. This may not seem like big news, however the parking fees are estimated to bring $3.5 million in annual sales which could be put back into maintaining the beaches.
Siesta Public Beach is the county’s largest beach, which will bring in the most money, it will also harbor the most complaints primarily from locals. There are talks of annual passes running anywhere from $30-$35, which would eliminate most of the complaints from the locals.
