The Gracewater Sarasota CDD is located entirely within unincorporated Sarasota County, Florida and covers approximately 138.97 acres of land. The real property within the boundaries of the District is generally located west of Tuttle Avenue, south of 47th Street and north of Myrtle Street.

The District is legally authorized to exist and exercise all of its powers as set forth in Chapter 190, Florida Statutes, as otherwise provided by law.

A Community Development District (CDD) provides the 'solution' to Florida's need to provide valuable community infrastructure generated by growth, ultimately without overburdening other governments and their taxpaying residents. CDDs represent a major advancement in Florida's effort to manage its growth effectively and efficiently. This allows a community to establish higher construction standards, meanwhile providing a long-term solution to the operation and maintenance of the community's facilities.
