Stay Active with the Siesta Key Association...

WE NEED YOUR HELP. The Siesta Key Association has a rich tradition of representing and proactively lobbying for the rights of the citizens of Siesta Key, and it is becoming ever more critical to have an active body that represents the interest of all property owners on Siesta Key.

SKA needs volunteers who can actively participate in subcommittees which work closely with the County to beautify our island, look after the environment and ensure that zoning laws are followed, so that we can look forward to maintaining the essence of Siesta Key which is so important to all of us. Please contact info@siestakeyassociation.com for more information.

If you don't have the time to participate in subcommittees, you can learn more about what is happening in your community and contribute your ideas by attending any of the monthly SKA Board Meetings.

Community Information Links

Short Term Rental Zoning Ordinance

A request for assistance regarding rental zoning ordinance was made during a recent SKA meeting. Please use the link above regarding rentals in a Residential Single Family (RSF) zoned neighborhood. The link provides zoning ordinance specific to our Siesta Key Overlay District (*SKOD). Rentals are allowed on Siesta Key in Residential Single Family (RSF) neighborhoods the same as on the mainland, which is: homes may be rented once in a 30 day period.

FDOT Midnight Pass Pedestrian Island Project

Please see new updates and download the newly released FDOT postcard mailer sent to residents. This provides a description of options for pedestrian crossing on Midnight Pass Road.

SKA recommends Option #6, four (4) locations near condominiums with units on both sides of Midnight Pass. This option includes a flashing light alert system on both sides of the crosswalk.

Please vote by January 20 for Option #6. You may use the postcard mailer sent by FDOT or by logging into the website. Select the option called "COMMENTS" to vote.
