Roads and Bonds Fueled Venice Growth in 1915
A Sarasota Times editorial urged bond issuance to speed roads. In March 1915 voters approved a $250,000 road bond for Venice Bee Ridge and Fruitville. Nine foot asphalt roads replaced planned fifteen foot work, with contracts awarded to Continental Public Works and Luton Bridge Co. The route linked Osprey Avenue to Venice, Englewood, and beyond, shaping early regional development.
