Welcome to VoteJoeBarbetta.com 

I would like to thank you for visiting our website. Here I hope you will learn more about where I stand on the issues and what I hope to bring to the Sarasota Board of County Commissioners.

Sarasota County needs practical solutions to traffic gridlock, ineffective growth management, inadequate environmental protection, affordable housing and economic development. Day by day our community becomes less livable and less affordable. We must move in a new direction.

As a Planning Commissioner, I have been a leading advocate of innovative and proactive ideas to solve Sarasota's problems. I have the business experience, the community service experience, and the dedication to get Sarasota County moving in the right direction. With your vote of confidence, I will.

Sincerely,
Joe Barbetta

What Others Are Saying About Joe 


As a County Commissioner I had the privilege of nominating Joe Barbetta to serve on the Sarasota County Planning Commission. I could not have found another individual who would be more dedicated and effective to serve on this very important board. Joe has always done his homework and has utilized his experience and knowledge to help shape Sarasota County's future. Serving on the County Commission would be the next important step for Joe and I heartily support him in his race. - Bob Anderson, former Sarasota County Commissioner
