Project Description:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Design for the expansion of a multipurpose agricultural pavilion to triple the size of the current space.  The expansion will not only benefit Sarasota County, but the surrounding communities by enabling more and larger agricultural events by the Cooperative Extension Service Farm Bureau, Cattlemen's Association, 4-H, and FFA activities.  It will also provide for varied community necessities by providing adequate space for local events, large group meetings and a staging area for natural disasters and evacuation facilities.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Measurable Outcome Anticipated:

 

 

 

 

 

Increased availability for all of Sarasota County and surrounding communities to offset current deficiencies for various state and local needs in disaster situations and to meet local demand for the facility.
