Steps

  1. 1

    Match the situs address

    Use an official address or parcel record. The countywide address point is a routing aid, not parcel ownership or a zoning determination.

  2. 2

    Check the jurisdiction boundary

    Cross-check the point against the County boundary service and confirm Longboat Key county side. If address and boundary data disagree or return multiple matches, stop and ask the local authority.

  3. 3

    Use the correct local authority

    Unincorporated property uses County services; City of Sarasota, Venice, North Port and Sarasota-side Longboat Key use their own municipal channels for locally administered processes.
