Taxes Approved in Manatee, Sarasota

Government

Sarasota County voters approved an extension of an economic development ad valorem tax. The approval allows the continuation of the ability of county commissioners to grant tax incentives to new and existing businesses to relocate or expand in Sarasota County. About 65.31% of voters approved the tax. A bond referendum also passed in Manatee County with 71.34% of the vote. That allows a water quality, wildlife preservation and park tax up to 0.15 mill to finance the acquisition, improvement and management of land.
