-l. Obstacles or problems which resulted in underachievement of goals, objectives or policies.
• 5. Ne~v or modified goals, objectives or policies needed to correct discovered problems.
6. A means of ensuring continuous monitoring and evaluation of the Plan during the ensuing
five-year period.
The items identified above are addressed either separately or in combination in this section and
incorporated as part of the North Palm Beach Comprehensive Plan.
1.6.1 Citizen Participation
The Village of North Palm Beach adopted Resolution No. 12-87 on March 26, 1987 which
established specific public participation procedures to be followed in updating the Comprehensive Plan.
A copy of Resolution 12-87 is included as Figure 1-2.
When the Village begins the adoptions or amendment process, it is required by State law that
appropriate public hearings are to be held. Chapter 163, Part lI, Florida Statutes, needs to be closely
followed and adhered to at that time. As particular issues or matters of an expressed community
concern arise, the Local Planning Agency should, if it deems it necessary, hold public meetings or
hearings, to address such concerns. This would further enhance citizen participation in the planning
process. Copies of legal notices, published pursuant to Chapter 163, Florida Statutes are included as
• Figures 1-3A to 1-3C.
Depending upon the detail and need for summanes, the Local Planning Agency shall decide if,
and when, to prepare Executive Summaries of comprehensive plan elements and documentation.
1.6.2 Updates to Baseline Data and Objectives
All data, information and matters of fact that form the basis for the Comprehensive Plan
(support documentation) should be clearly updated at state prescribed fvcrgeztr intervals. Further,
support documentation for all elements of the North Palm Beach Comprehensive Plan should be
updated at the same sirmlar time. By doing so, the Village will establish a data base that will be
internally consistent for the entire Comprehensive Plan. This will provide a specific time-frame for the
collection and analysis of data, information and matters of fact upon which the Plan elements can be
developed. ~'
This process is ri di a 1 formalized for a rational and methodical
presentation of information. However, the Village Public Services Department should assemble data,
information and matters of fact on a regular basis, as relevant information becomes available.

By proceeding in the update process in this manner, the Village can formally synthesize and
update baseline information for each state-prescribed planning increment and develop historical trends
to be used for continuing planning needs.
•
Based on the compilation of information, the Village will be able to develop a logical, systematic
methodology to measure the objectives and implementation activities proposed in the Comprehensive
Plan. Data can be evaluated and assessed against those objectives of the Plan that are quantifiable.
Updates to matters of fact and basic background information will help assess those objectives and
implementation activities that are not quantifiable in short-range terms.
1.6.3 Obstacles, Problems and Achievements
As baseline data, information and matters of fact are periodically updated and analyzed, the
successes and failures of the North Palm Beach Comprehensive Plan will become evident. The
obstacles and problems witnessed by the Village that have effected the implementation of the
Comprehensive Plan will be identified and reviewed. Based upon the evaluation and assessment of
those problems which have resulted in the underachievement of adopted goals, objectives and policies,
the Village will review and update each Comprehensive Plan element in terms of its ability to address
current Village needs and issues. If the directions for growth and development have changed, or the
emphasis shifted, additional goals, objectives or policies may need to be incorporated to reflect new or
additional Village intentions. When the Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR) is prepared, it should
follow the procedure described above. This methodology and procedure will keep the Village abreast
of its problems and concerns while providing the means to incorporate additional directions within the
. Comprehensive Plan.
1.6.4 Continuous Monitoring and Assessment
A formalized Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR) is required to be prepared periodically
. However, the North Palm Beach Comprehensive Plan should be continually
scrutinized and reviewed for current applicability. When additional issues or new directions are
defined, they should be incorporated within the Comprehensive Plan via the annual amendment
procedures. Procedures for incorporating amendments within the Village of North Palm Beach
Comprehensive Plan are included as Figure 1-4.
The Village will also coordinate data base collection activities with Palm Beach County,
Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council, its municipal neighbors, appropriate State agencies and any
other jurisdictions/entities that affect the growth and development within North Palm Beach. These
activities will enhance the comprehensive planning process in general and foster increased
intergovernmental coordination activities.
1.6.5 Monitoring and Evaluating Capital Improvements
In addition to the general requirements for monitoring and evaluation procedures identified in
- Chapter 9J-5.005(7), Florida Administrative Code, it is further required that the CAPITAL
~' 1M.PROVEMENTS element be reviewed on an annual basis. Therefore, the Village shall review the
1-15
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS element of the Comprehensive Ptan each year to evaluate and assess
the need for amendments thereto. Each defined capital expenditure and/or project will be reviewed to
determine its current status. Any capital project that has been completed will be reported as
implemented. Those projects that have not been completed or have been partially accomplished will be
reassessed for current applicability. If determined to be a valid current concern, incomplete or
unaccomplished capital improvements will be re-prioritized and rescheduled for inclusion in the
amended CAPITAL Ilvil'ROVEMENTS element. Those projects that are no longer valid Village
concerns will be deleted from the list of projected

FIGURE 1-~ (Continued)
The Local Planning Agency shall base its recommendations upon findings which may be based on
the report by the Village Planner, andlor staff comments, or may be based on the materials submitted by
the applicant, or a combination of all of the above. If the Local Planning Agency votes to recommend
approval of the Comprehensive Plan amendment, such findings shall include a statement that the proposed

1-20
future projects. Any decisions and actions rega~•ding amendments to the CAPITAL. [~IPROVE~IEi`1TS
element will be compiled, reported and included within the Evaluation and Appraisal Report.
• The monitoring and evaluation of capital improvements projects will be closely coordinated and
timed with the Village annual budget process. The Village budget, when necessary, contains line item
expenditures for capital improvements. Therefore, it is incumbent upon the Village to have the iVtanager,
Finance Director and appropriate Department Directors review the Comprehensive Plan prior to budget
preparation to determine which capital projects have been implemented during the current year and what
anticipated needs and capabilities are for the ensuing fiscal year. If Village financial capabilities and
priorities conflict with programmed improvements, then appropriate adjustments need to be made.
Annual review of the CAPITAL Iiv1PROVEVIENTS element should concur with the monitoring
and evaluarion requirements established in Chapter 9J-~, Florida Administrative Code.
1.6.6 ;veasurability
It is the intent of the Village to develop objectives and/or policies which provide the means to
measure the effectiveness of implementation of the Comprehensive Plan. It is further the intent of the
Village to establish planning time frames to measure the effectiveness of objectives and policies, as
adopted. For purposes of this Comprehensive Plan, it is presumed that the accomplishment of objectives
and policies will occur within the five (5) year planning period, unless otherwise specifically stated or
identified in the various Plan elements or, if the objective or policy specifically regards the update, revision
to, or preparation of new development regulations. Where revisions, updates or preparation of
development regulations are required, they will be accomplished within one year of the i transmittal
date '. 9j- of the Comprehensive Plan amendments., ,
Statutes, or as State requirements may change from time to time.
Fiscal Year (FY) dates are utilized throughout the Comprehensive Plan as a means of specifically
establishing measurability. The use of fiscal years will allow the Village to coordinate any expenditures
required with the North Palm Beach budget cycle. As a result, when an objective or policy statement is
worded "by FY .....", the actual date by which implementation of the program or action must occur shall
be the last day of the fiscal year (e.g. FY 1990 shall mean September 30, 1990; FY 1991 shall mean
September 30, 1991; etc.).

2.0 VILLAGE CHARACTER STATEMENT
u
2.0 VILLAGE CHARACTER STATEMENT
- -- The-Village of North Palm Beach, located in Northeastern Palm Beach County (Ref: Figured 2_
1 n 2-~), is awater-oriented residential community providing afull-range of social, cultural and
recreational opportunities to its residents. Incorporated in 1956, the Village's five square miles of
incorporated area (Ref: Table 3-S; FUTURE LAND USE element) presently supports a resident
population of approximately-1-~;~86 12.200 and a seasonal population of an additional -1;-896 2.200
residents, many of whom live along Lake Worth and the series of inland waterways that provide direct
access to the Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean.
The North Palm Beach Country Club and associated facilities, located in the heart of the
Village, provides a variety of recreational activities to Village and area residents, including golf, tennis
and swimming. This 150-acre facility also serves as a Village focal point by providing social and dining
facilities to area businesses, organizations and residents necessary to promote a spirit of community
involvement and interaction. Similarly, the North Palm Beach Community Center, a x-912.5-acre
campus located in the northern portion of the Village, provides added cultural and athletic opportunities
to area residents.
The 1.5-mile stretch of Atlantic beach that forms the eastern boundary of the Village is located
entirely within John D. MacArthur Beach State Park and represents one of the most spectacular
unspoiled coastal areas in all of South Florida. This 385-acre park site is presently being developed in
a cooperative effort among the Village, Palm Beach County and the State of Florida to insure the
protection of its sensitive coastal habitats while permitting public access and enjoyment of this
. magnificent coastal and estuarine area. The Village of North Palm Beach is one of only a few coastal
communities that does not permit development along the barrier island within its corporate limits.
The Village's several marinas and waterfront parks provide boating and fishing opportunities for
small crafts as well as luxury and sportfishing boats. Hundreds of docks line the waterways within the
Village, providing a haven for a variety of boats and providing direct access to productive fishing areas,
with local catches that include snook, snapper and other game fish. Youngsters, families and avid
fishermen are often seen along the bulkheads and banks of inland waterways that traverse the Village.
Besides the myriad of recreational, cultural and social commitments the Village has made to its
residents, the business and financial interests in the area have found the Village to be an ideal area to
locate. By restricting commercial development to Northlake Boulevard and U. S. Highway One, and
by prohibiting industrial development, the Village has achieved a balance of land uses so often absent in
developing coastal areas.

The Village operates under a CounciL~I~ianager form of government, consisting of five elected
officials and an appointed Village Manager. A group ofappointed boards whose duties include advisory
and plan review functions, meet regularly to insure careful consideration of matters relating to development,
planning, recreation and administrative affairs. These board meetings, often well-attended by Village
residents, provide a vital means ofassuring public input into the Village decision-making process. Figure
2-3 illustrates the organizational functions of these various boards and committees.
A monthly newsletter, published and distributed by the Village keeps area residents informed on
a number of issues including council meetings and agendas, adult and youth athletic programs, public safety
and service information, and cultural programs administered by the library and Community Center. The
newsletter is also used to address current issues affecting the day-to-day operation of the Village and
provides a fonirn for community involvement in matters of concern to all residents. The Village Council has
long been committed to this form of public participation in government.
The Village ofNorth Palm Beach provides a full range of municipal services, including public safety
(police, fire and emergency medical services), sanitation and public improvements as well as the
recreationaUcultural and general political and administrative services previously described As stated in the
introduction to its first adopted Comprehensive Plan, "North Palm Beach is, and desires to remain, a
residential community offering adiversity ofhousingchoices, afull-range ofmunicipal services, commercial
development sufficient to satisfy the needs of the resident population, and a choice of recreational
opportunities. Industrial development is not desired. The environment of North Palm Beach has been
enhanced through planning and responsible municipal management. These principles will continue to guide
Village growth."
The goals, objectives and policies presented in the Village ofNorthPalm Beach Comprehensive
Plan are designed to: (1) assure that future development within the Village occurs in such a manner as to
be consistent with the current character of the community, as described above, including, but not limited

TABLE 3-5
• SOIL-TYPE CI3ARaCTERISTICS
1 Arens -Urban Land Comples -These are somewhat poorly drained soils formed by the deposition of about
thirty inches of sandy material over other sandy sells. They occur in former low areas that have been tilled In for urban development.
Slope gradients are less than tyvo percent.
2 Quartzipsamments,Shnped -These are sandy sells that lack identifiable sol lavers or fragments of identifiable
layers, because of reworking and shaping by each moving equipment, usually for urban developments. Some areas were high ridges
that have been ~cavated to lower elevations, while other areas were low and have been filled with sandy soil material to above natural
ground level. Slopes range from zero to five percent.
3 Urban Land -urban land consist of areas that aze more than seventy percent covered with shopping centers,
parking lots, lazge buildings, streets, sidewalks, and related facilities where the natural soil cannot be observed. Unoccupied areas,
mostly lawns, parks, vacant lots, and playgrounds consist of soils In the Arrendondo, Candler, Hague, Kendrick, Sparr, and Blichton
series that have been altered by cutting, ditching, shaping, or by having sandy filled materials spread on the surface of the sells to a
depth o£ five to twelve inches. These unoccupied areas aze too small to be mapped separately. Since this mapping unit has been put
to an urban related use for the foreseeable future, it is not rated for the different uses.
4 Tidal Swamp -Mineral -These are very poorly drained mineral soils in tidal mangrove swamps. In a
representative profile, the surface layer is black mucky loamy sand about ten inches thick, below this is thirty inches of sand. The
upper eight inches is black and the lower two inches is very• dark grayish brown. They are flooded daily by salt or brackish tidal
water.
5 Beaches -Beaches consist o£ narrow strips of tide washed sand bordering the coast. Most areas are covered with
water during storms and daily at high tide. Beaches range from a few feet to as many as Eve hundred feet wide. Long stretches are
barren, but sparse salt tolerant plants grow in places. Depth of flooding varies with the tide. The sand is light gray to white and
consists mainly of the fine quartz particles in which there are varying amounts of coazse shell.
6 Palm Beach -Urban Land Comples -The Palm Beach series consist o£ nearly level to sloping, well to
excessively drained sells on long narrow ridges parallel to the coast. They formed !n thick beds o£ mired sand and shell marine
deposits. In a representative profile, the surface layer is dark grayish brown sand and shell fragments about six inches thick Below
this are layers of grayish brown and reddish yellow sand and shell fragments that extend to depths of eighty inches or more. Slopes
are predominately zero to eight percent.
7 Canaveral -Urban Land Comples -These are somewhat poorly and moderately well drained deep sandy sells
mired with shell fragments. They have a very dark grayish brown sand surface and dazk grayish brown subsurface lavers over pale
brown and very pale brown layers that have few• to marry shell fragments and extend to depths of eighty inches or more. These soils
occur in coastal areas and have slopes of zero to five percent.
8 Cocoa -Urban Land Comples -These are nearly level to sloping, well drained sandy soils. They have a dark
hrnwn SurfaZe layer aFjput ci.r in~hr_c thick at+_d a Strong brown SLt1JS~lrfaS~C laver to a depth of hventy thches. Betyveen a depth of
rn~ertty and thirty inches, it is yellowish red and red. A red loamy sand subsoil occurs at a depth of thirty-two inches and is underlaid
by limestone at thirty-eight inches. These soils occur in discontinuous narrow ridges near the coast. Slopes range from zero to eight
percent.
9/11 Basinger Fine Sand, Basinger-Urban Land Comples -The Basinger series consists of poorly drained deep
sandy soils that occur in broad sloughs, poorly defined drainage ways and depressions. A representative profile has a thick very dazk
gray surface layer. Light gray fine sand subsurface layer, and brown and light brownish gray subsoil between eighteen and thirty•-six
inches. Light colored fine sand extends to below a depth of sixty inches. Slopes are less than tw•o percent.
10 Riviera -Urban Land Comples -The Riviera series consists of nearly level, poorly drained soils that occur on
broad low fiats and depressed azeas in the lower coastal plain. In a representative profile, the surface layer is dazk gra}ish brown sand
about sic inches thick. The subsurface laver is white sand about twenty-tyvo inches thick and it tongues into the underlying grayish
brown sandy clay loam subsoil. These soils formed in unconsolidated marine sands and looms. Slopes aze less than tyvo percent.
