Good morning, Bradenton.

Residents in Lakewood Ranch voiced concerns over a proposal to build a 22-unit apartment complex off Lorraine Road, fearing the change may alter the neighborhood's feel.

More than 150 residents remain displaced after a partial roof collapse at Aviata at Bradenton Villas early Sunday, and families are still unable to access personal belongings or medical records while city officials assess the building’s safety — calls remain unanswered.

Local fishers have a lobster mini-season starting Sept.

29 (officials have released guidelines on measuring lobsters to ensure a safe legal harvest).

On Monday night, residents met in Lakewood Ranch to discuss Hillpointe's proposed 200-townhome workforce housing development along Lorraine Road (intended for essential workers, police, nurses and teachers).

The public workshop is a required step before Manatee County reviews the plan, with construction potentially beginning in a few months.
