anna maria island: Everyone loves a good parade
- 12/06/09 09:17 AM
Everyone loves a good parade. The privateers are holding their annual Anna Maria Island Christmas parade December 12th. If you are in Tampa, Sarasota or Orlando swing out to Anna Maria Island to put your feet in the sand and enjoy a great Christmas parade. The parade starts around 10:00 AM at the North end of Anna Maria Island in Anna Maria City at Bayrfont park. The parade will end around 11:15 AM in Bradenton Beach at Coquina park. I strongly suggest if you come to park at Coquina or the Holmes Beach public beach so it is fairly easy to … (0 comments)

anna maria island: Anna Maria Island, the bridge is open, the bridge is open!
- 11/06/08 12:33 PM
It's official, the state route 64 bridge that connects Anna Maria Island to the mainland is open! More than a week early the island tonight had a buzz. I received several text messages, a phone call, and it was announced over our public announcement system in our office, "The bridge is open, the bridge is open." The bridge closure was a non-event. I heard very little complaining regarding traffic. Sure, no one was happy to take the long way to Manatee avenue but the Florida Department of Transportation did a fantastic job. My compliments to the leadership of the project. It's not often my … (0 comments)
anna maria island: Anna Maria Island bridge repair - so far so good
- 10/02/08 02:52 PM
So far so good. We are almost one full business week into the Manatee avenue bridge closure. Those I have discussed commuting to and from Anna Maria Island have positive comments regarding the traffic congestion on Anna Maria. They say "life" is good. Most tell me the detour is only about 10 minutes out of the way. We have not seen a weekend as of yet so time will tell but all indications show that all the actions the Department of Transportation has taken to ensure the flow of traffic has made big impacts. I remain cautiously optimistic. So far so good! … (0 comments)

anna maria island: Early Christmas on Anna Maria Island?
- 08/30/08 02:28 PM
Manatee, Florida 2008 Property Tax Information - Anna Maria Island Ken Burton Jr. is on my good side 2008. I have a feeling some Anna Maria Island property owners may disagree. It appears as though his leadership within the county of Manatee, Fl has made a fair reduction in Anna Maria Island property taxes. I received my personal property tax letter early in the day and waited until late in the evening to open the proposed property taxes. I expected very little in the way of property tax reductions so I was ready for a rough night with a lots of … (1 comments)
anna maria island: Lions, Tigers, and Rental Restrictions ...oh my!
- 07/16/08 02:07 PM
So...it happened. Somehow one of our cities on Anna Maria Island passed through a new month minimum rental restriction in our R1 districts. There are lots of owners that count on their $30k - $75k rental income to help pay their debt service, property taxes, and insurance. The new month minimum will cut their gross income to less than $20k per year. More importantly, what impact the rental restriction will have on our local Anna Maria Island Real Estate. I would love to hear from those of you who have seen similar rental restrictions. In addition, do you have a success story … (3 comments)
anna maria island: Tacky marketing or down right good stuff ? Number 2
- 07/12/08 04:35 PM
I live on gorgeous Anna Maria Island which is 1 hr South of Tampa and 1/2 hr North of Sarasota. We have 7 miles of gorgeous white sandy beach. Lately I have been trying to exercise more and find myself walking the beach or our local streets each morning. Normally I see at least 30 people on my walks. I continue to ask myself how many of the walkers I pass are interested in selling their home, buying their home, or know of someone looking for a home on Anna Maria Island. How can I tap into this potentially huge resource for … (4 comments)

In 2008 Anna Maria Island of Manatee county has seen a fabulous upturn. More specifically, residential property is doing well as compared to 2007.
