Pool Construction in North Sarasota's Established Communities
North Sarasota's two primary residential communities — The Meadows and University Park — represent different eras of planned development. The Meadows was developed primarily in the 1970s and 1980s as one of Sarasota's first large planned communities, featuring golf courses, nature trails, and a mix of single-family homes, villas, and condominiums. University Park followed in the 1990s as a gated golf community with larger custom homes.
Both communities have active HOAs with Architectural Review Committees. Pool construction and renovation in The Meadows and University Park requires ARC approval before Sarasota County permits can be pulled. Pool Creations prepares the documentation package — site plan, equipment placement, decking materials, fence and barrier details — that each community's ARC typically requires.
Many pools in The Meadows are 35 to 50 years old and are candidates for resurfacing, equipment replacement, and structural evaluation. University Park pools tend to be newer — 20 to 30 years old — but are reaching the age where resurfacing and equipment upgrades are common. Pool Creations handles all Sarasota County Building Services permit applications and inspections in-house.
