Low-Impact Development Manual

Sarasota County
Low-Impact Development Manual

Coolness Factor:

This was the first LID Manual in Florida that received direct recognition in the Environmental Resource Permitting Process.

Description:

Jones Edmunds developed a LID Manual, which was based on successful design ideas from similar manuals around the country and tailored to the conditions encountered in Sarasota County. We teamed with County staff, representing a wide range of County departments, to ensure that the LID Manual met their expectations. We also worked with 13 stakeholders in the region, including among others SWFWMD, UF, and UCF.
