The Sarasota Airport Authority is in a legal battle with the city over proposed apartments. A re-zoning plan would allow the complex to go up at the former Kennel Club.
The Sarasota Bradenton Airport Authority suggests legal action may ensue to block Aventon Sarasota, a 372-unit multifamily complex beneath its noise contour.
Citing a violation of an interlocal agreement and comp plan conflicts, the Sarasota Bradenton Airport Authority has voted to pursue legal action against the city of Sarasota over apartments near the runway.
