Chipotle Mexican Grill plans new Manatee County restaurant, building records say

Another Chipotle Mexican Grill could be coming to Bradenton, according to building records filed with Manatee County Government. The standalone Chipotle restaurant is planned for 5722 14th St. W., Bradenton, in the same shopping plaza as a Winn-Dixie grocery store, records say. It would be the ninth Chipotle in Manatee County. In a recent press release, the company said it was looking to expand its restaurant footprint in Florida. Chipotle opened its newest Manatee location at 16680 State Road 64 E. in September. The fast casual chain is known for its build-your-own bowls and burritos, featuring Mexican-inspired cuisine. According to building records, the new Chipotle restaurant will also feature a Chipotlane, allowing customers to pick up online orders via a drive-thru window. As of Wednesday evening, the building records did not include a construction timeline or scheduled opening date. For more information, visit www.Chipotle.com .

For some, Sarasota is a favorite vacation destination. For others, it's the place they've always called home.

That connection to the Suncoast inspired the creation of SRQutie,...

Clearing the way for Seaboard's future

The City of Venice is clearing the way for the next chapter of one of the community's oldest districts. Demolition recently took place at the City's former Public Works facility on Seaboard Avenue, removing structures from property that sits near the heart of the City's long-term vision for redevelopment of the Seaboard area. Seaboard has historically served as Venice's industrial district, with its growth tied to the railroad and the original John Nolen plan for the community. Today, the City is working to guide its transition into a walkable mixed-use district that can accommodate residential, commercial, retail and continued light-industrial activity. The demolition also increases the flexibility of a significant block of City-controlled property. The former Public Works site comprises approximately 2.5 acres and is adjacent to 3.3 acres of cleared property also owned by the City, bringing the combined area to approximately 5.8 acres.

There's something wonderfully incongruous about a nearly $9 million waterfront home whose owner would rather paddle a kayak than captain a yacht. John Milos isn't much of a boater, despite owning a private dock on Lido Key with deep-water access to Sarasota Bay and the Gulf. He and his wife, Catherine instead have three kayaks and a customized launch that lowers them directly into the canal at the touch of a button.
