Step 2. Adjustment of Statistical Availability

The airport is located in Sarasota, an affluent retirement and vacation community on Florida's west coast. DBE availability in the immediate area is limited due to the generally limited commercial opportunities for many of the trades required for airport construction projects. Consequently, the airport has historically included in its base figure market area an eleven-county area extending over 100 miles north, south, and east of the airport and encompassing the larger and more commercial communities of the Tampa Bay area, as well as the Ft.
