Sarasota County open to buying old golf course property, but cost keeps commissioners from taking action

Sarasota County commissioners seem open to the idea of purchasing a 49-acre former golf course property in the Gulf Gate Estates community. If acquired by the county, it could remain green space with a potential to benefit local water quality and improve stormwater infrastructure. Right now, it is owned by a developer who wants to bring 106 single-family homes to the site.
