Village Manager's Message 841-3380
Dennis W. Kelly, Village Manager
Pot Pourri
Debt Management Article Follow-Up
In last months Managers Message I shared with you information re-
garding the Village's debt and how we are managing that debt in rela-
tion to the new projects we have been consWCting over the last four or
five years. Thanks to a couple of telephone calls (which were greatly
appreciated) a couple of citizens were curious as to what the interest
rates were on the loans made by [he Village. It was a complete over-
sight on my part to not include those in the message and for that I
apologize. It was a very simple piece of data and the type of informa-
tion most people like to know when they are talking about borrowing,
debts and loans. So by popular demand here are the interest rates we
received on those loans:
• Information System Master Plan - $600,000.00 - 3.99% fixed rate
for five years (2004).
• Public Safety Building, Anchorage Park Activities Building,
Community Center Ballfield and Osborne Park Concession
stand - $6 million - 3.04% variable rate for 20 years (2017).
• Village Hall renovation $1.2 million, Canal dredging $1.4 million,
North Sub-station (property acquisition $93,500.00 (seed money),
and Anchorage Park parking $93,500.00 (seed money) for a total
loan of $2.8 million - 3.29% variable rate for 10 years (2011).
Before the latest round of interest rate reductions by the Federal Re-
serve Commission our interest rates looked pretty good. The bond
market was riding high and borrowing rates were fairly low. The bond
market, just not more than a week or two before this writing, fell and
interest rates went back up a bit. Subsequently, we were looking like
genius's when we bonowed the money and did not look so smart when
interest rates went below the good rates we got; subsequently interest
cafes have gone back up so now we aze looking smart again. All joking
aside we feel we got good competitive rates for these borrowings and
[hey have been serving us quite well. Hope this information satisfies
the two good citizens that gave us a call asking for the information.
Holiday Event Schedule
For the month of December the Village has a number of special events
occurring in which you might want to mark your calendars. These are
all a lot of fun and they really give you a nice strong sense of commu-
nity when you either participate in or come to observe these different
events. ~~ Two of the strong characteristics of these special events are
that they are all family and holiday oriented. There is not an event that
we put on that we do not try to incorporate the type of entertainment
that would be wholesome for the entire family regardless of age. The
first big event you will see announced else where in this newsletter is
the annual Ho]iday.BOat Parade that will take place on Saturday, De-
cember 1" at 6:00 PM. We have made arangements to make the sec-
ond fairway available to the general public to observe the pazade. If
you have not been to one of these in the past they are really enjoyable
and a lot of fun to see the boats coming up [he Intracoastal Waterway
all decorated with their holiday lights. We provide some bleacher seat-
ing along the second fairway but you are also encouraged and wel-
comed to bring your lawn chair or a blanket and find a spot along the
second fairway under the oak trees and watch the boats pass by; or,
you may come in your own boat and anchor or idle around the NPB
Waterway or the: north end of Lake Worth near Old Port Cove. The
boats are literally so close to the shoreline you can almost talk to the
people in the boats as they pass by. 7'he parade starts in the vicinity of
Peanut Island just south of the Blue Heron bridge at approximately
DECEMBER 2 O O 1
6:00 PM and usually makes it-to the north end of Lake Worth just en-
tering the Intracoastal Waterway around Old Pon Cove and the Pazker
draw bridge at around 6: I S to 6:30 PM.
The second event-taking place is the annual holiday tree lighting at the
Village Hall. This is always a fun event especially hearing the children
from one of our elementary schools sing holiday songs as part of the
tree lighting ceremony. We always have refreshments available after-
wards and light snacks and the public is always encouraged to attend.
The tree lighting ceremony rarely takes more than thirty minutes of
singing and tree lighting and then we break for [he refreshments. The
parking lot between the Library and Village Hall is closed off for this
e3{ent to allow enough roam for citizens to stand and watch as the
lights are lit.
A third event which is new this year will be the lighting of a Menorah
in recognition of Hanukah. Hanukah begins December 9'" and runs
through December 17w. the Menorah lighting will be hosted by the
Chabad House Lubavitch of Palm Beach which is the Jewish Center on
Propserity Farms Road (the old Palm Bible Chapel). Orr the fifth night
of Hanukah, December 13's there will be a candle lighting ceremony at
6:00 PM accompanied by a musician along with the traditional potato
pancakes. The Menorah will be located in the same location between
Village Hall and the Library and the public is cordially invited.
A Big Thank You for the Great American Weekend
We want to take this opportunity at [he beginning of [he holiday season
to thank al] the volunteers that helped with the Great American Week-
end. A special thanks to the Village's Recreation Department for the
great job they did for setting up the Salute to America celebration that
took place Sunday aftemoen and a special thanks to Eddie D'Ambra
and Ray Brady for the work they and their comrrtittee did in setting up
the Toys for Tots golf tournament and other special programs that took
place Ihrougpou[ the weekend. Without the community support and
the volunteers there would be no way of carrying off a program of this
nature. In addition, a special thank you to Ms. Lil Cunningham for
organizing the children's parade and special thank you to the twelve
Veterans of the Normandy D-Day Invasion that were there to receive
their medals from Congressman Clay Shaw. That was an extraordinar-
ily moving experience and very heart warming to see these gentlemen
come forwazd for their awards. The event was successful to the extent
that the Village Council has directed staff to plan on doing this next
year. The Salute to America Celebration was extraordinary in that we
only had thirty days to prepare for it because it was in response to the
September 11's terrorist attacks. Next year, hopefully we will provide
staff and volunteers a little more lead time to organize and get the dif-
ferent activities lined up for the weekrnd to make it even bigger and
better. In closing, hope you and yours have great holiday season. As
always, if you ever have any problems with any services provided by
the Village at any level whether it is Public Safety, sanitation, garbage
collection, recreation registration for athletic events, etc. please do not
hesitate to call any of us within the organization at the department head
level or at the Village Manager's office. We want to hear from you and
if there is a problem we can solve we will do the best we can to resolve
it. A big thanks to all of you for your wonderful support of this ex-
traordinary community. Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!

HOLIDAY SAFETY
As we participate in the usual holiday outings and activities, it is
easy to become distracted and become victims of crime. Please
take a moment to review the following tips for a safe holiday:
1. Please secure your purchases in your vehicle trunk. If your)
vehicle has no enclosed tmnk, cover them so that they are
not visible to strangers.
2. Park in a well lit, high traffic area. When returning to your
vehicle, have your keys in your hand and be prepared to
immediately enter your vehicle.-
3. Carry your purse close to your body, preferably with a strap
across your shoulder and always physically hold on to it.
4. Try to carry a small amount of cash, or if this is not an
option, be aware of those around you when you are paying
by cash. People wi[b cash-ale easily farge[ed at a check out
counters when they are paying for their merchandise:
S. Dress conservatively, and leave the expensive jewelry for
your holiday party, no[ the mall. 'Thieve target people with
easily accessible neck]aces and bracelets that can be
snatched off in a moment:
6. If paying by credit card, make sure that any carbons are
given to you or destroyed in your presence.
7. At home, make sure that your windows and. doors are
locked, even when you are home. All the wrapped presents
look nice under the tree, but they are easy pickings for a
burglar. Make. sure [hat your gifts are not visible to anyone
looking in a window or from your front door.
After the holiday, don't tell criminals that you have expen
sive new presents by piling the boxes in the trash. Try to cu[
them up and dispose of them in opaque plastic garbage
bags.
9. Above all, if you notice anything suspicious, please call the
police. Always trust your instincts. If it doesn't look or feel
right, you should call immediately. You may deter a crime
and save a persons holiday.
THE NORTH PALM BEACH DEPTMENT
OF PUBLIC SAFETY WISHES EACH AND
EVERY ONE A MERRY AND SAFE
HOLIDAY SEASON. r, `'~

DECEMBER 2 O O 1
KEEP YOUR HOLIDAYS SAFE .
Make sure your home is fire safe for the Holidays!
The joys of this season make Christmas, Hanukah, and New
Year's Eve festive but can also create special risks of home
fires.
DECORATING:
When decorating use lights that are in good working order, no
frayed cords or loose and/or damaged sockets. Don't overload
electrical outlets or mn extension cords under carpet, across
doorways, or near heaters. Use an outdoor extension cord
when decorating outdoors. Make sure all decorative lights are
unplugged before leaving your home or going to bed to avoid .
overheating.
- . ~ CHRISTMAS TREE:
Make sure your Christmas tree is fresh and away from fire-
places, exits and heat sources. Be sure that your tree has a
constant supply of water. Check daily. If you use an artificial
tree, be sure it is flame-retardant.,.
CANDLES:
Make sure candles are well away from Christmas trees, deco-
rations, curtains, and other combustibles. Don't leave candles
_ .lit when.not_at-home.and never_leaye them unattended within
the reach of small children.
HEATING HAZARDS:
Space and portable heaters should be kept at leas[ 3 feet away
from anything that can bum: newspapers, fumimre, curtains,
even walls. Use the right fuel and be sure they are properly
vented. Central Heating should be inspected once a year and .
cleaned prior to the "heating season". Fireplaces should be
kept clean and foes kept small. Use a fireplace screen to pre-
vent sparks from flying into the room. Don't leave children
alone in a room with a fireplace fire. Never bum trash or pa-
per, which can float up the chimney and possibly cause dam-
age to your roof or your neighbors. Remove ashes in a metal
container and don't store ashes indoors.
REMEMBER, KEEP YOUR HOLIDAYS SAFE
AND ENJOY THE NEW YEAR!
