The town and real estate for sale at Longboat Key was incorporated in November of 1955, and after an initially slow development curve it steadily reached its peak in the 1960′s and 1970′s.The Town Commission ultimately imposed more strict zoning laws and prepared the means for town water and sewage in the 70′s.
