The Sun (June 24th) reported that the Anna Maria Island Preservation Trust (AMIPT), with support from the Pine Avenue Restoration (PAR) partners would be working to raise money to purchase and restore a building they refer to as the Angler’s Lodge or Angler’s Inn. That building is located in a residential neighborhood at 117 North Bay Blvd. at the corner of Lakeview Drive near the humpback bridge.
Future City meeting agendas should be watched to see if Sissy Quinn will be presenting something re: AMIPT’s pursuit of preservation grant money to ‘restore’ the building at 117 North Bay Blvd.
One big question is if the AMIPT secures ‘preservation’ grant money and PAR acquires the property, how would the PAR partners want to use this Residential property? The Sun printed that Quinn of the AMIPT “said she’s not sure what the building would be used for if the campaign were successful – perhaps as a sort of community building for receptions and other events.”
Wait a minute! The building is a single family residential house on a residentially zoned 3 lot parcel. What is this talk about using a residential house for receptions and other events? The 117 N. Bay Blvd. property is large - 171 ft by 110 feet. Would they also want to use the property for parking?
The neighboring residents should be on guard!
