To accomplish this work, VSC partnered with JLL's Tourism practice, an international tourism and destinations consulting group, to assemble a comprehensive destination plan that would build off the efforts and accomplishments since the organization’s 2020 strategic planning initiative and identified goals. Specifically, by 2025, VSC seeks to: • Ensure funding and program development are aligned among VSC, its partners, government entities, non-profits and meets long-term goals of the community • Assess gaps in the tourism, sports, cultural infrastructure to identify potential new or enhanced tourism demand generators. • Recommend actions and activities to increase visitor flow across all segments (leisure, meetings, sports). • Review the effectiveness of VSC’s marketing programs and recommendations to improve these initiatives. Examine VSC impact compared to its direct competitors with their much larger budgets.

  • The Transportation Support Document
    The Transportation Support Document The inventory and analysis in the Support Document provides the foundation for the Plan portion of this Chapter. The Support Document is not adopted. INVENTORY AND ANALYSIS Overview This Transportation Chapter considers the physical and spatial needs of a City that is over 100 years of age and which is the home of approximately 54,639 year-round inhabitants. The City contains over 500 miles of roadway under the jurisdiction of the Florida Department of Transportation, Sarasota County and local City streets. The City participates in the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) with other municipalities in Sarasota and Manatee counties. Fourteen bus routes, operated and managed by Sarasota County Area Transit (SCAT), operate within the City of Sarasota. The City includes 83.65 miles of designated bike lanes/routes and almost 16 miles of trails. The Inventory and Analysis of the Transportation Chapter is the data and information that underlies the City’s policies for maintaining and improving the City’s transportation infrastructure. A major issue, as identified by the Evaluation and Appraisal Report, is Transportation Mobility in the Downtown Environment. The City of Sarasota must make a policy decision regarding the Transportation Concurrency Exception Area and implementation of the Downtown Sarasota Mobility Study and Downtown Parking Master Plan. The Inventory and Analysis section is organized as follows: Roadway Functional Classification Thoroughfare Plan Concurrency Transportation Systems Management

Nemec, B.A., Florida Gulf Coast University M.A., University of Massachusetts Boston Directed by Professor Vincent J. Cannato Beyond the Big Top: The Legacy of John Ringling and the American Circus is a focused interpretation of the impact of the American circus post-Civil War through present day, most particularly that of circus impresario, corporate magnate, and philanthropist John Ringling, in what was once a quiet Florida fishing village named Sarasota. It is my observation that John Ringling, through moving the winter quarters of the Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey to Sarasota, investing in a sizable amount of real estate, and spearheading a campaign to bring a world-class art museum and school to the area, played a key role in shaping Florida tourism, diversity, expanding cultural awareness, and boosting the local economy.
