Michael Holderness bought four beachfront lots on Florida’s Siesta Key in 2016 and 2017, leading to years of disputes with Sarasota County over public access and development. Under a settlement, the county will receive the four lots and make them public beach property, while Holderness gets a nearby parcel valued at nearly $2.8 million, $500,000 and permission to build a 5,000-square-foot home.
