The Honorable Mayor and Village Council
Village of North Palm Beach
North Palm Beach, Florida 33408
RE: Fiscal Year 2014/15 Annual Budget
To Honorable Village Mayor and Council,
I am pleased to share this Fiscal Year 2014 /15 Annual Budget for the
Village of North Palm Beach. This budget reflects a plan to maintain
and improve service to our Village residents for the coming fiscal year.
The budget allocates scarce resources among departments providing
financial resources that continue Village improvements. Department
management has prepared an ambitious list of Village projects and
operational improvements that follow guidelines established by
Council's goals and objectives. This budget document identifies broad
plans, operational responsibilities and financial guidance that will
continue Village improvements throughout the coming year.
Budget Format
The Administration has taken steps to make this a user - friendly budget
document. This budget provides a common source of meaningful information
for many different users. The budget depicts our Village managerial and
oversight responsibilities as outlined by the Administration's department
organizational structure (organizational charts). This managerial structure
assigns operating and oversight responsibilities among Village departmental
areas.
Village Departments have included a detailed discussion of their
individual goals, operational service, program improvements, and staffing
and capital project expenditures for their respective areas.
This document is intended to make our Village budget process more
meaningful to officials, the Administration / Management staff and to
our residents. With our ongoing efforts to maintain an open exchange
of municipal information, understanding how Village resources are
received and expended is of great importance. As part of our continuing
effort to give access to all citizens, the Village Administration will place
this budget document on the Village website (www.village- npb.org).
Budget Goals
The Village obtains a major portion of its annual general fund financial
resources (56.41 %) from ad valorem property taxes. The Village does
not assess many of the traditional taxes that other municipalities use for
generating revenue. Rather, it primarily depends on ad valorem taxes to
fund services. As a result, residents are not assessed additional taxes for
utility, solid waste, storm water, or fire rescue.
Improved property valuations and an improved state and national
economy make the 2014/15 budget year the most promising in recent
memory. The following is a brief synopsis of those legislative reform
bills that have continued impact on the Village's budget over the past
few years:
HB 1B: Which was enacted in FY 2007/08 limits the authority
of local governments to levy ad valorem taxes for the budget
years 2007/08 and beyond. For the FY2008/09 budget and
beyond, ad valorem taxes will be capped at the rolled back rate
plus an adjustment based on the growth of the per capita
personal income.
Amendment One: In FY 2007/08 this amendment increased
the homestead exemption from $25,000 to $50,000 (for property
values $50,000- $75,000), except for school district taxes.
Amendment One also allows property owners to transfer (make
portable) up to $500,000 of their Save Our Homes benefits to
their next homestead when they move within the state.
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 10 of 294
With respect to non - homestead property, Amendment One
limits (caps) the annual increase in assessed value for non-
homestead property to ten percent, except from school district
taxes. The amendment also provides a $25,000 exemption for
tangible personal property.
The FY 2014/15 budget was developed collaboratively with assistance
from a wide array of the Village supervision and staff. This collaborative
effort allowed the Administration to consider past and current practices
and procedures. In partnership with our Village staff, opportunities
were identified for new and improved services, programs, and projects.
During this review, the Administration held several discussions with
members of our Village team to consider and develop enhanced services
and projects for the coming fiscal year. Many of these projects are
summarized in the "General Fund Expenses" section following this
narrative. The details of our Department operating plans, projects and
improvements may be found in each respective Department's budget
narrative. Using a collaborative budget preparation approach, the
Administration maintained a balanced focus between high quality
resident service, operating effectiveness and fiscal responsibility.
In setting goals during the budget planning process, our staff team
maintained an awareness of balancing our many levels of municipal
service with our valuable and scarce Village financial resources. In all
cases, the Administration placed the highest priority on services that are
most valued by our residents — with a commitment to provide these in
an effective and efficient manner. Our budgetary emphasis centers on
the Council's budgetary goals:
1. Protect the Financial Integrity of the Village
a. Seek alternative sources of funds including grants.
b. Seek to influence Florida legislature in areas of
unfunded mandates, taxation, and revenue sharing.

Budget Objectives
A general listing of our Village's annual budget Objectives are reflected
in the following bullets. From a financial viewpoint, the Village's gross
taxable property values have increased this year to $ 1,609,188,844.
The following budget Objectives have been developed by the
Administration and are reflected in this Budget:
• Provide sufficient funding to maintain the Village infrastructure,
roadways and facility maintenance.
• Ensure that Village equipment is replaced in a timely and
consistent fashion allowing staff to achieve and maintain high
levels of quality and service.
• Evaluate current staffing levels in all Village Departments to
ensure the best and economically provided for community service.
• Explore "outsourcing" opportunities of service related components
within the respective departments as a cost savings measure.
• Maintain a balanced budget while providing for needed non-
recurring capital project and equipment expenditures.
• Implement a program of improvements in employee
compensation, benefits, personnel administration, and employee
appraisals in accordance with discussions and agreements
reached with Council.
• Implement changes in both procurement and project
management as recommended by staff and external auditors.
The Administration encourages establishing a minimum designation
of Village General Fund Balance or core investments equal to
approximately 35% to provide an important and meaningful
financial balance that would be available in the event of unforeseen
occurrences. The General Fund Unassigned Fund Balance at
September 30, 2013 is $11.34 million, which represents 57% of the
Fiscal Year 2014/15 General Fund Budget. Note: The actual fund
balances for fiscal year 2013 -2014 will be available upon
completion of the Village's annual audit in early 2015.
The Village's primary investment objective, in priority order of
investment activities, shall be: safety; principal liquidity; and the
maximizing of investment income. The Village's investment
portfolio will be broken into two primary categories, Operating and
Core investments. The Village Administration will maintain local,
liquid funds equal to a minimum of one - twelfth of the adopted
budget. Administration will follow established investment strategies
in accordance with the prevailing investment policy of the Village.
The Administration has continued to refine and develop the
Village's organizational structure to help shape and focus staff's
responsiveness, accomplishments, training, supervision, and
performance. Village employee compensation and benefits account
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 12 of 294
for roughly 71.47% of the Village FY 2015 General Fund budget, a
decrease from 75% in the Village FY 2014 General Fund budget.
Budget Highlights:
The FY 2014/15 budget reflects a renewed commitment and
predictable funding for community infrastructure in areas such as
roadways, neighborhood sidewalks and lighting, public buildings,
and park facilities.
The Community Development Department will focus on meeting
the demands of our Village's business and neighborhood
redevelopment. Community Development will continue to concentrate
staff resources in areas of construction, permitting, licensing, and
community planning while reinforcing improvements in customer
service. The continuing analysis and pursuit of annexation opportunities,
zoning and redevelopment enhancements and improvement of our
business and development regulations is also a function of the
Community Development Department. This Department will better
align our Village with statutory development guidelines and help to
meet steadily growing expectations of homeowners and developers.
The Parks and Recreation Department will renew its focus on
enhancing programs to all age groups and at each of the six facilities.
Anchorage Park will host a variety of events in this upcoming year
to include: movies in the park; organized volleyball leagues; the
Village's annual fishing tournament; and Heritage Day. The parks
continue to be maintained by an outside service, which has been
funded under the "contractual services" line. The new Veterans
Park was completed in time for the Veterans Day observance. The
park has also been configured so that it was the focal point for our
Holiday celebrations in December.
The Public Works Department has oversight of Village sanitation,
infrastructure, streets, facilities, equipment, and roadways. This
Department will play a major role in maintaining and expanding our
focus on community appearance during the coming year. Roadway
appearance will be emphasized with improved median and swale
plantings. Public Works will also play a key role in our expanded
emphasis on both project management and procurement.
Additionally, Public Works will begin a three year project to reduce
electrical costs to the Village.
The Public Works Department will also continue to evaluate the
way we collect our trash. In the last year, a total of 4 accidents with
Jitneys have occurred and we need to develop a safer and more cost
effective approach to trash collection. With the scheduled
replacement of one of our large packer trucks, we see an opportunity
to implement a new concept on a test basis that will reduce the risk
of injury and ultimately be more cost effective. The Village of North
Palm Beach was selected to be a pilot recycling program with the
Solid Waste Authority (SWA).
The Police Department has continued improvements in
neighborhood outreach, crime suppression and crime clearances.
Communication between neighboring police departments has and
will continue to enhance crime prevention, response and solution.
For the second consecutive rating period (3 years), the Village's
Police Department received the coveted CALEA National
Accreditation for law enforcement agencies.
Through diligent efforts of Council and staff, the Country Club
finances have stabilized, from the standpoint of both golf and
restaurant operations. Village Administration will continue to
evaluate both financial and operational aspects of this facility with
an aim toward delivering high quality service and an enjoyable
recreation experience. Administration and Council commissioned a
market analysis project that solicited input from residents on a
variety of issues including the future of the County Club facility.
Information from that research will help us create a vision for the
future which we can integrate into planning for both programs and
facility improvements at the clubhouse.
The Administration continues with implementation of an optical records
storage system, which will be an ongoing project. This system will
be used by all Village operating departments (Community Development,
Finance, Human Resources, and Country Club). Optical record
storage systems are now widely used by governments and meet all
State record storage requirements. This allows the Village to transition,
over time, from paper records to optically stored records. Optical storage
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 13 of 294
permits digital "look up" of any optical record "at will" through the
convenience of a simple computer search.
Optical storage systems are commonly used by many local governments
and the cost is relatively modest when considering the time - savings
and customer service improvements they offer.
The Village's operating millage rate would increase to $7.3300 mils
(The current millage rate is $68731 mils). The Village has no
outstanding general obligation bond debt; therefore, the combined
total millage rate of the Village would equal $7.3300 mils. Much of our
Administration's budget deliberations reflect judgment "trade- offs"
between increasing costs, desired service improvements and the need
for capital items.
Capital budget needs over the next five (5) years will be leveled
off to avoid the bow effect that has caused the budget to
fluctuate at extreme levels in past years. In FY 2015, the
Council has set aside two - tenths (2/10) of a mil (or $305,746.00)
to be dedicated to future Capital Improvement Plan needs.
The Police Department's CAD, Dispatch and 911 functions will
be transitioned to the North County Dispatch Center. This
allowed the Village to reduce the budget by seven (7)
Dispatcher positions, and realize an estimated net cost savings
of $2.01 million over the next five years.
Personnel Staffing and Benefits
The preparation of this portion of the budget continues to be
challenging based on continuing increases in the cost of employee
compensation and benefits. The Village implemented the
compensation plan completed by Evergreen Consultants in the FY
2013/2014 budget. The revised compensation plan increased the
base of the employee compensation pay plan by 8.5 %.
The Village will continue to apply more resources toward training
staff, in order to make sure employees are equipped with the tools
they need to offer exemplary service. We will continue emphasis on
succession planning to encourage staff to develop their skills and
capabilities in preparation for growth within the organization.
There are isolated personnel changes recommended to provide for
improvements to our organizational structure, and meet Council
Goals.
Retirement contribution levels for the General Employee "Defined
Benefit" Retirement Plan will decrease from 20.82% to 19.54% in
the coming year while employee contributions remain at 6 %.
Retirement rates for Police & Fire will increase from 21.08% to
21.49% in the coming year. Police employee contributions
increased from 2% to 2.67% in Fiscal Year 2014 and will continue
to increase by .67% for the next two years for a total employee
contribution of 4% by Fiscal Year 2016. The Collective bargaining
agreement with the Fire union is still in negotiations.
The Village's required contribution for the "Defined Contribution"
plan, available through ICMA -RC, is fixed at 15% with a required
3, 5, 10 or 15% contribution by the participating employee. FPE
and Police & Fire pension matters are subject to the Village's
collective bargaining negotiations.
Debt Administration
The Village, in FY 2009/10, paid -off its last remaining General
Fund debt obligation and is now debt -free. This move was made
possible through cost saving measures to include: workforce
reduction strategies and the utilization of the General Fund
Unassigned Fund Balance. In the Country Club Enterprise Fund,
loan repayments are reflected as appropriate and have been provided
for in this budget as required by each existing Village loan agreement.

Budget Conclusion
The FY 2014/15 Budget reflects continued improvement to citizen
services, public safety, public facility maintenance, and emphasizes
improved community appearance and financial stability. The
budget plan promotes the administration of the Village in an
effective, efficient manner. Most importantly, the budget provides
necessary resources for the Village of North Palm Beach to maintain
and further improve services to our 12,184 residents.
Several operating and capital improvement project highlights are
planned in the FY 2014/15 budget that supports the goal of
continually improving our Village using a "Resident Service" focus.
Many of these budget highlights are shown on tables in the
following pages.
In summary, the FY 2014/15 budget recommends the following
operational funding:
• Establish the Village Operating "Millage Rate" at $7.3300
mils
• Utilization of $102,000 from the General Fund Reserve for
Future Tax Relief to reduce the millage rate
The millage rate of $7.3300 mils includes an appropriation of two -
tenths of a mil for a total of $305,746.00 to be transferred to the
Capital Projects Fund to finance the General Fund's Capital
Improvement Plan.
The preparation of this Annual Budget document could not have
been accomplished without the tireless collaboration of all Village
departments and the notable assistance of our Finance Department staff.
The Village Administration would also like to acknowledge and
thank Village Council for their collective guidance, diligence,
perseverance, and stewardship during this difficult budgetary process.
With respect to the workforce reduction strategies, decisions made,
were neither easy or without tremendous heartache. All available
options were exhaustively explored with a steadfast goal to improve
service delivery levels while reducing costs.
Several budget workshop meetings were held during the months of
July, August, and September where Council has meticulously pored
through the substance and content of this Budget. All refinements
are incorporated in this "Final" FY 2014/15 Annual Budget
document.

Village History
North Palm Beach Area before Incorporation:
1892 Albert Sawer was given a warranty deed by the State of
Florida with the stipulation that he improve, cultivate or sell
the land before 1907. This land included Lake Park and
North Palm Beach. Sawyer died in 1903 and willed the trust
to his son, Albert. The 1907 deadline was extended to 1927.
1919 Albert Sawyer, Jr. sold the deed to Barton Peck in 1915 for
$1140. Peck sold the deed to Harry & Mabel Kelsey for
$100,000. Kelsey moved to Silver Beach and bought 14
miles of oceanfront and lakefront property between Miami &
Jupiter, including 100,000 acres which later became Kelsey
City/Lake Park and North Palm Beach. He purchased the
Florida East Coast Canal, which is part of the Intracoastal
Waterway, and operated it as a toll waterway with a toll chain
across the intracoastal to stop boats and collect a fee. Dredg-
ing became costly so Kelsey sold the waterway to the state.
1923 Kelsey City was incorporated in 1923 after Kelsey had laid
out his carefully zoned town. Over 100 houses were built by
him and these homes sold quickly.
1926 Kelsey, with the help of Paris Singer (Singer Island is named
after him), built an 18 hole golf course and Winter Golf Club-
house ( "The Winter Club ") on the land where the NPB Coun-
try Club sits now.
"Golfers at the Winter Club"
"The Winter Club late 1920's"
1928 A hurricane with 130 mph winds caused Lake Okeechobee
to overflow its banks and drown 3000 residents who lived
near the lake. The hurricane wrenched the concrete Far-
man River bridge from its mooring, demolished all but a
few of the 100 Lake Park homes, uprooted and leveled
Kelsey's 3 timber mills, and the entire Park Avenue shop-
ping district, and ruined the vital credit rating of this once
thriving town.
"The Earman River Bridge"
Many of the pioneer families who had purchased homes in
Kelsey City fled North, abandoning their demolished
homes, defaulting on their mortgage payments and causing
the Kelsey City Bank to fail. In Florida, if property taxes
went unpaid for 2 years, the state took title to that land.
The unpaid taxes totaled $300 per lot and went up for sale.
Kelsey, very disillusioned that his carefully planned town
was in ruins, abandoned his first original home on the
southwest corner of U.S. Highway One and Park Avenue
and left Kelsey City.
1929- Sir Harry Oaks purchased the Winter Club and all the NPB
1930 land from Kelsey. Oaks added a south wing to the Winter
Club. Oakes opened the golf course to winter visitors but
closed it shortly after the stock market crash of 1929 -30.
Oaks moved his family to Nassau and spent considerable
time in London.
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 23 of 294
1926-
1955
In the period of time from 1926 when Kelsey built the
Winter Club and 1955, the land consisted of 7 square miles
of sugar sand and scrub palmetto and fewer than 100 individ-
uals living between Lake Park &
Jupiter. The Tesdem Company, `
formed by Harry Oakes' Estate,
held trusts of over 1000 lots in
Lake Park and all the land in
NPB including both sides of U.S.
Highway One.
"Bus from Palm Beach to the
Winter Club"
1951 Harry Oaks' widow sold NPB land to Ralph Stolkin. Stol-
kin used this land as collateral for a loan from John D. Mac -
arthur. When Stolkin defaulted, MacArthur became sole
owner of NPB and Lake Park. However, MacArthur was
more interested in developing Palm Beach Gardens.
1955 Richard and Herbert Ross purchased the NPB
properties from MacArthur's Bankers Land
for $5 million.
Herbert Ross
1956 Before NPB was incorporated, the Ross brothers had these
services in place: a utilities general manager, a Village Hall,
a Village Council consisting of pioneer first council
members: Charles Cunningham, our first Mayor,
Richard Ross, Jay White, John Schwencke and John
D. MacArthur, a Fire and Police Chief, Anchorage
Park Marina and ramp, 75 miles of sewer pipes, a
bulkhead and dredged 20 canals and 3 lakes and a
John Schwencke Village Manager.
08/13/1956... Together with Seward Mott Associates of
Washington, D.C., a master plan was drawn and the Village
of North Palm Beach was incorporated by Tallahassee.
North Palm Beach after Incorporation:
1957
The first business to be issued an occupancy permit was the
Pantry Pride / Food Fair at 101 U.S. Highway One. The
first three permits for occu-
pancy were issued to: 402
S. Anchorage Dr., 406 S.
Anchorage Dr. & 410 S.
Anchorage Dr.
"402 S. Anchorage Dr."
1958 The developers donated ten acres of land to the school board
and NPB Elementary opened for classes.
The National Association of Home Builders out of Chicago,
chose NPB as an award winning community. This was the
first time a Florida town had won! The criteria used includ-
ed excellence in: landscaping, planning, schools, recreation,
zoning, shopping, variety of home styles and public services
in place. The layout for our Village had superior planning,
and credit for this award - winning plan goes to Richard &
Herbert Ross.
1961 The Village purchased 145 acres around the NPB Country
Club for $1,250,000 by issuing general obligation bonds.
NPB voters approved spending $400,000 to build a new
clubhouse and Olympic size swimming pool. These im-
provements opened in 1963 and the bond was paid off in
1988.
1969 NPB Library, off Anchorage, was dedicated. Old Port Cove
condominium complex with over 1,000 units was started.
1971 Twin City Mall opened at the corner of Northlake Blvd and
U.S. Highway One as Palm Beach County's second en-
closed shopping mall. This Mall was built onto the previous
grocery store /strip mall completed in 1959. The Mall was
demolished in the mid -1990s and has gradually been re-
placed by a mid -sized strip mall anchored by Publix.
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 24 of 294
1973 The University of N.C. chose NPB as an example of "one of
the few well planned communities its size in the U. S.A."
1980 1.5 miles of oceanfront land, which lay within the NPB
boundaries, was sold to Palm Beach County for $23 million.
It is now called John D. MacArthur Beach State Park.
George Delacorte, a NPB resident, donated $600,000 toward
building our second Community Center. The Delacorte Rec-
reation Building on Prosperity Farms Road was built with the
stipulation that no fee ever be charged for use of the building.
Harriet Nolan was elected as the first female NPB Council
Member.
1981 Additional condominium complexes completed
2004 during these years.
1989 Judy Pierman elected as the first female Mayor of NPB.

time, it had the most technologically
advanced equipment.

charged the Village $1 for his services.
Who
2008 The North Palm Beach Police Department

escalating real estate, local government, efficient
public services, and no commercial buildings

Budget Preparation Process
The budget process incorporates the development, implementation
and evaluation of a plan for the provision of services and capital
assets. The budget is to serve as a management and control tool by
measuring actual performance against budget standards, focus
attention on future operations and plans and improve
communication of goals, objectives and plans.
The Village's budget process relies on a timetable of tasks and the
planning of steps and meetings that must be maintained in order to
comply with state requirements for Truth in Millage (TRIM) as
well as internal requirements for sound planning and fiscal
responsibility. The budget process begins with setting a calendar
of tasks for the coming months that meets all requirements and is
approved by the Village Council. Below is the Village's Budget

Through the budget process, an annual budget is developed that
integrates priorities and short and long -term goals as established by
Council in order to meet the needs and goals of the Village and
establish annual resource allocations. These resource decisions
address desired quality of service; staffing levels; technology
needs, equipment and capital improvements; and programs
considered to be priorities by the Village Council. The Village's
fiscal year starts on October 1 and runs through September 30.
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 31 of 294
The Village's Budget Process can be divided into five phases:
• Policy & Strategy Phase
• Assessment Phase
• Development Phase
• Review Phase
• Adoption Phase
Each phase is described below.
Policy & Strategy Phase
Setting priorities for the Village is one of the most important
responsibilities of Village Council and these goals and directives
set the tone for the development of the budget. In this phase,
Village Council and staff has the opportunity to reassess the goals
and objectives within the strategic framework in order to provide
direction to the resource allocation and budgetary decision - making
process.
Annually, the service priorities and objectives for each fiscal year
are evaluated and the long -term financial plan is monitored and
updated in order to set direction for the development of the budget
that is properly aligned with the broad goals and strategic
directives. This includes an assessment of services, capital needs,
issues and challenges, opportunities as well as a review of
economic trends and financial forecasts.
Assessment Phase
As part of the budget process, departments evaluate performance
towards meeting current and past goals and objectives and assess
current conditions, programs and needs. Various financial
analyses, as well as productivity and staffing analyses, are
performed. Programs and services are also reviewed thoroughly to
assess their value and the subsequent priority to the residents of the
Village. These internal analyses are necessary to determine service
needs and delivery improvements, cost savings and opportunities,
and required staffing levels.
Development Phase
Each department's budget package includes forms and instructions
to aid in the preparation of their budget requests. The forms
contain two prior years' actual data, the current year estimated
actual, current year budget, requested amount for the coming year.
The departments describe the expenditures on the line item
justification form which follows the departmental breakdown of
the line items. In addition to requesting dollars, the departments
must submit departmental objectives that provide a strategy linked
to the Village's overall goals and policy agenda. The departments
must also provide current year achievements and organization
charts that identify changes from the previous year. The above
mentioned items are included in both the proposed and final budget
documents.
In a separate package, the departments submit requests for
necessary capital outlay and capital improvement projects. Each
department submits requests in order of priority. These include
cost and description, as well as justification for the need. Capital
Improvement Projects are forecast in the 5 -year Capital
Improvement Program (CIP) document. This allows the need to be
known in advance. The department must re- submit and re justify
the need for the project during each subsequent budget process.
The projects include cost and description.
Review Phase
The Village Manager and Finance Director review the
departmental requests, meet with the departments, and fund what is
deemed necessary.
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 32 of 294
Public Adoption Phase
In July, the Village Manager presents a proposed budget for the
fiscal year commencing October 1 to the Village Council for
consideration and further input. This proposal includes all
proposed operating and capital expenditures and the means of
financing it. Council reviews the budget and conducts budget
workshops to provide an opportunity for Village management and
departments to offer additional information. Changes are made to
the budget as per the Council's instructions. The proposed budget
is then revised incorporating these changes.
The budget is adopted in compliance with requirements found in
the Village's Charter as well as with the State Statute known as
TRIM (truth in millage). The law includes strict requirements and
a timetable guide for noticing budget hearings and ensuring
residents have an opportunity to be heard before final action takes
place.
TRIM Compliance
Florida Department of Revenue sets a schedule for local
governments to follow in adopting tax roll information in
accordance with the county property appraiser offices.
Accordingly, there are two public hearings scheduled to openly
discuss the budget, millage rate and reason for any tax increase.
By July 1St each year the Property Appraiser certifies the tax rolls
for the Village on form DR -420. This roll is used in formulating
the proposed millage rate for the coming year. Thereafter the
following timetable must be adhered to:
• Within 35 days the Village Manager must have submitted
the proposed budget to Council and delivered the DR -420
and DR -420 MM -P to the Property Appraiser (August 5th)
• Between 65 -80 days from date of certification the Village
must hold a tentative budget and millage hearing. This
hearing cannot be held sooner than (10) days following the
mailing of notices by the Property Appraiser (August 24th)
• Within fifteen (15) days of the tentative budget and millage
hearing the Village must advertise a final hearing on the
budget.
• Not less than two (2) or more than five (5) days after the
advertisement, a final hearing adopting the budget and
millage is held.
• Upon completion of the public hearings and prior to
October 1st, a final operating budget is legally enacted
through the passage of an ordinance.
• Within three (3) days after adoption, the Village must
certify the adopted millage to the Property Appraiser and
Tax Collector.
• Within three (3) days after receipt of final value, as
discussed below, the Finance Director completes form DR-
422 and returns to the Property Appraiser.
• Within thirty (30) days of final millage and budget
adoption, the Village must certify compliance with Section
2000.065 and 200.068, F. S., to the Department of Revenue.
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 33 of 294
Implementing, Monitoring & Amendment Phase- Bud2etary
Control
Upon the final adoption of the budget, staff implements the new
fiscal year budget and begins the process of continuous monitoring
and ensuring budgetary control throughout the fiscal year. The
objective of budgetary controls is to ensure compliance with legal
provisions embodied in the annual budget approved by the Village
Council. The level of budgetary control (that is, the level at
which expenditures cannot legally exceed the appropriated
amount) is established at the fund level.
Reports are generated monthly to keep Department Directors
informed and to monitor revenues and expenditures in order to
achieve effective control over their departmental budgets.
Department Directors are accountable for over /under expenditures.
The Village maintains an encumbrance accounting system as one
technique of accomplishing budgetary control. All expenditures,
other than personal services, are controlled by a procurement
system which encumbers purchase orders against the budget prior
to issuance to vendors. Purchase orders are not issued until
appropriations are made available. All appropriations lapse at year
end; however, encumbrances specifically designated to be carried
over to the subsequent year are re- appropriated in the following
year.
During ongoing monitoring, staff may note that corrective action is
needed to help accomplish planned or needed programs and
activities and request budget amendments. Changes or
amendments to the budgeted amounts at the fund level must be
approved by the Village Council; however, the budget may be
amended in the following three ways:
1. A transfer over $10,000 may be authorized only by
ordinance /resolution adopted by Council.
2. Transfers up to $10,000 can be made with
authorization by Village Manager.
3. A transfer from the Village's Unassigned Fund
Balance Account or the Council Contingency
Account, which may be authorized only by
ordinance /resolution adopted by the Council.
All budget amendments, once approved, are processed by the
Finance Department.

Basis of Presentation, Basis of Budgeting and Budgetary Accounting
Basis of Presentation
The accounts and the budget of the Village are organized and
operated on the basis of funds and account groups. To better
understand the budget, a basic understanding of this financial
structure is required.
A fund is an independent fiscal and accounting entity with a self -
balancing set of accounts. Fund accounting segregates funds
according to their intended purpose and is used to aid management
in demonstrating compliance with finance - related legal and
contractual provisions. Account groups are a reporting
requirement to account for certain assets and liabilities of the
governmental funds not recorded directly in those funds. The
funds are classified for reporting purposes into three basic fund
types; governmental, proprietary and fiduciary funds. The purpose
of the Village's funds and account groups are described in the
following paragraphs.
Governmental Fund Types:
Governmental funds are those through which general
governmental functions of the Village are financed. The
acquisition, use, and balances of the Village's expendable financial
resources and the related liabilities (except those accounted for in
Proprietary Funds) are accounted for through Governmental Funds.
The following are the Village's Governmental Fund types:
• General Fund — The General Fund is the main operating
fund of the Village. This fund is used to account for all
financial resources except those required to be accounted
for in another fund. All general property taxes, fines,
various permits, property rentals and certain
intergovernmental revenues are recorded in this fund.
General operating expenditures, fixed charges and capital
improvement costs that are not paid through other funds are
paid from the General Fund. There can only be one
General Fund.
• Special Revenue Funds — Special Revenue Funds account
for the proceeds of specific revenue sources that are legally
restricted to expenditures for specified purposes.
• Capital Projects Funds — Capital Projects Funds account for
financial resources to be used for the acquisition or
construction of major capital facilities or improvements
(other than those financed by proprietary funds) being
financed from general long -term debt, grants, or transfers
from other funds.
In the Governmental Fund Type category, the Village adopts an
annual operating budget and appropriates funds for the General
Fund only. The Capital Projects Fund and the Special Revenue
Funds involve multi -year projects so annual budgets are not
adopted for these funds. Instead, appropriations in these funds
remain open and carry over to succeeding years until planned
expenditures are made, or until they are amended or cancelled.
Proprietary Fund Types:
Proprietary funds distinguish between operating and non - operating
revenues and expenses, and the principal revenues are derived
from charges to customers for sales and services. The Village's
sole proprietary activity is the operation of a golf and country club,
which is an enterprise fund.
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 36 of 294
• Enterprise Funds —Enterprise Funds account for operations
(a) that are financed and operated in a manner
similar to private business enterprises where
the intent of the governing body is that the
costs (expenses, including depreciation) of
providing goods or services to the general
public on a continuing basis be financed or
recovered primarily through user charges; or
(b) where the governing body has decided that
periodic determination of revenue earned,
expenses incurred, and /or net income is
appropriate for capital maintenance, public
policy, management control, accountability,
or other purposes.
The Village adopts a non - appropriated operating budget for its
Country Club Fund at the same time it adopts the General Fund
Budget.
Fiduciary Fund Types:
Fiduciary Fund types are used to account for assets held by the
Village in a trustee capacity or as an agent for individuals, private
organizations, other governments and /or other funds. The funds in
this category are the Village's Pension Trust Funds and Agency
Funds. Annual budgets are not prepared for these fund types.
• Trust Funds — To account for assets held by the Village in a
trustee capacity. The pension trust funds are accounted for
in essentially the same manner as proprietary funds since
capital maintenance is critical.
• AjZency Funds — To account for assets held by the Village.
The Village retains no equity interest in these funds.
Account Groups:
Account groups are not funds since they don't reflect available
financial resources and related liabilities. Instead, they are used
to establish accounting control and accountability for the Village's
general fixed assets and general long -term debt. The following is a
description of the account groups of the Village:
• General Fixed Assets - To account for all fixed assets of the
Village, except fixed assets of Proprietary Funds.
• General Long -Term Debt — To account for all the
outstanding principal balances of any general and special
obligation bonds or notes, capitalized leases, installment
purchases, and compensated absences of the Village,
except long -term obligations of Proprietary Funds.
Basis of Budgeting
The basis of budgeting includes the following two elements
(measurement focus and basis of accounting) that measure and
account for transactions the Village reports in the respective fund's
budget and operating statement.
Measurement Focus
Measurement Focus refers to what transactions are recorded. The
accounting and financial reporting treatment applied to a fund is
determined by its measurement focus. There are two different
measurement focuses that are used in the preparation of financial
statements for governments:
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 37 of 294
• Economic Resources Measurement Focus — This
measurement focus is used in the preparation of the
government -wide financial statements and in the fund
financial statements of proprietary funds. With this
measurement focus, all assets and all liabilities associated
with the operation of these funds are included on their
statement of net assets and the reported fund equities (total
reported assets less total reported liabilities) provide an
indication of the economic net worth of the funds.
Operating statements of these funds report increases
(revenue) and decreases (expenses) in total economic net
worth.
• Current Financial Resources Measurement Focus — This
measurement focus is used in the fund financial statements
of governmental funds. With this measurement focus, only
current assets and current liabilities generally are included
on the balance sheet. Accordingly, the reported
undesignated fund balances (net current assets) are
considered a measure of available, spendable or
appropriable resources. Operating statements of these
funds present increases (revenue and other financing
sources) and decreases (expenditures and other financing
uses) in net current assets.
Account Groups are concerned only with the measurement of
financial position. They are not involved with the measurement of
results of operations.
Basis of Accounting
Basis of accounting refers to when revenues and expenditures are
recognized in the accounts and reported in the financial statements.
The basis of accounting relates to the timing of the measurements
made, regardless of the measurement focus applied.
The government -wide financial statements are reported using the
economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of
accounting, as are the proprietary fund financial statements.
Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded
when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash
flows. Property taxes are recognized as revenues in the year for
which they are levied. Grants and similar items are recognized as
revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements imposed by the
provider have been met.
Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the
current financial resources measurement focus and the modified
accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized as soon as
they are both measurable and available. Revenues are considered
to be available when they are collectible within the current period
or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period.
For this purpose, Ad valorem taxes and charges for services are
considered to be available if they are collected within 60 days of
the end of the current fiscal period, provided that amounts received
pertain to billings through the fiscal year just ended.
Intergovernmental revenues, which include state revenue sharing
allotments, local government one -half cent sales tax, and county
shared revenue, among other sources, are recorded in accordance
with their legal or contractual requirements if collected in the
current period or within 60 days after year -end.
Interest is recorded when earned. Licenses and permits, fines and
forfeitures and all other revenue items are considered to be
measurable and available only when cash is received. Business
Tax Receipt revenues collected in advance of periods to which
they relate are recorded as deferred revenues.
Expenditures are recorded when a related fund liability is incurred.
However, debt service expenditures, as well as expenditures
related to compensated absences and claims and judgments, are
recorded only when payment is due.
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 38 of 294
The proprietary fund and pension trust funds are accounted for
using the economic resources measurement focus and the full
accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recorded when earned
and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless
of the timing of related cash flows. Membership fees of the
proprietary fund that are collected in advance of the period to
which they apply are recorded as deferred revenue.
The table below summarizes the measurement focus and basis of
accounting for each reporting element and type of fund mentioned
above:

The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) shows the
status of the Village's finances on the basis of "Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles" (GAAP). In most cases, this
conforms to the way the Village prepares its budget, with the
following exceptions:
• Depreciation expense is not a budgeted expense.
• Expenditures for capitalizable fixed assets are budgeted as
expenses.
• Compensated absences are not included in the budget.
• Expenditures for principal payments on outstanding debt
are budgeted as expenses.
Budgetary Accounting
State of Florida statutes require that all municipal governments
establish budgetary systems and approve balanced annual
operating budgets. The Council annually adopts an operating
budget and appropriates funds for the General Fund. The
Village also adopts a non - appropriated operating budget for the
enterprise fund (Country Club) at the same time it adopts the
General Fund Budget. The procedures for establishing budgetary
data are as follows:
• In July of each year, the Village Manager submits a
proposed operating budget to the Council for the next fiscal
year commencing the following October 1St. The proposed
budget includes expenditures and the means of financing
them. The Village also advises the County Property
Appraiser of the proposed millage rate and the date, time
and place of the public hearing for budget acceptance.
• Two Public hearings are conducted to obtain taxpayer
comments.
Upon completion of the public hearings and prior to October 1St, a
final operating budget is legally enacted through the passage of an
ordinance. Estimated beginning fund balances are considered in
the budgetary process.
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 39 of 294
Financial Policies
Operating Budget Policies:
• The Village will comply with all Federal, State or local
legal requirements pertaining to the operating budget. A
balanced budget is achieved when the amounts available
from taxation and other sources, including amounts carried
over from prior fiscal years, equals the total appropriations
for expenditures and reserves.
• The Village will employ a structured budget preparation
and formulation process that will ensure adequate citizen
input and participation.
• The Village will employ a structured expenditure and
revenue forecasting system to allow for effective financial
planning.
• Essential services will receive first priority for funding.
The Village will attempt to maintain current service levels
for all essential services.
• The Village will identify low priority services for reduction
or elimination, if necessary, before essential services.
• The Village will consider the establishment of user fees as
an alternative to service reductions or elimination.
• The Village will pay for all current expenditures with
current revenues.
• The Village will avoid budgetary procedures that balance
current expenditures at the expense of meeting future years'
expenses.
• The budget will provide for adequate maintenance and
repair of capital plant and equipment and for their orderly
replacement.
• The budget will provide sufficient funding to cover annual
debt retirement costs.
• The budget will provide for adequate funding of all pension
plans, as determined by the Village's actuary.
• The Village will maintain a budgetary control system to
ensure adherence to the budget and will use a
budget /encumbrance control system to ensure proper
budgetary control.
• The Village administration will prepare regular reports
comparing actual revenues and expenditures to budgeted
amounts.
• Where possible, the Village will integrate service levels
and performance measures within the budget.
• The goal of the enterprise fund operation is to be self -
supporting and to pay administrative and other appropriate
service charges to the General Fund for administrative
support.
• The total number of employment positions approved in the
annual operating budget may not be exceeded without prior
approval of the Village Council.
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 40 of 294
• The Village will annually seek the Distinguished Budget
Presentation Award offered by the Government Finance
Officers Association (GFOA)
Fund Balance and Reserve Policies:
• The Village will establish an adequate fund balance in the
General Fund to indicate that it is in sound financial
condition. This reserve will be maintained at a minimum
level of 35% of current year general fund budgeted
expenditures, unless otherwise determined by the Village
Council.
• Fund Balance will only be used for expenditures that are
either non - recurring in nature or that have a benefit period
longer than one operating period, unless otherwise
determined by the Village Council. Village Council
approval is necessary for this type of expenditure.
• Maintain a contingency reserve in the General Fund and the
Country Club Fund to address unexpected needs that occur
throughout the year, subject to approval by the Village
Council.
Revenue Policies:
• The Village will take active measures to encourage
economic development, thereby developing a diversified
and stable revenue system to shelter it from short-run
fluctuations in any one revenue source.

closely related to the full cost of providing the services (i.e.
direct, indirect and capital costs); taking into consideration
similar charges /fees being levied by other organizations.
• The Village will aggressively seek Federal and State grant
and capital improvement funds and evaluate future local
fiscal impact.
Debt Policy:
• The Village Charter and the Constitution of the State of
Florida do not provide for a legal debt limit. However, In
making or providing of capital improvements, The Village
shall not incur a general obligation debt requiring the full
faith and credit and taxing power of the Village that
exceeds five (5 %) of the property tax base of the Village.
The Village has no general obligation debt outstanding.
• The Village will analyze the impact of debt service on total
annual fixed costs before any long -term debt is issued.
• Any loan obligation above $500,000 shall require review
and comment by the Village's Audit Committee prior to
Council Action.
• The Village will not use proceeds from long -term debt for
current, on -going operations. Long -term borrowing will be
confined to capital improvements too large to be financed
from current revenues.
• The Village will utilize the form of borrowing that is most
cost - effective, including not just interest expense but all
costs, including up front costs, administrative and legal
expenses, prepayment penalties, and reserve requirements.
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 41 of 294

• The Village will adopt the first year of a multi -year plan for
capital improvements, update it annually and make every
attempt to complete all capital improvements in accordance
with the plan.
• The Village will coordinate the development of the CIP
budget with the development of the operating budget to
ensure future operating expenditures and revenues
associated with new capital improvements will be projected
and incorporated into the current and future operating
budgets.
• The Village will maintain its physical assets at a level
adequate to protect the Village's capital investment and
minimize future maintenance and replacement costs.

FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 42 of 294
Debt Administration
The Village has limited its borrowing to prudent levels that are able
to be covered through existing revenue and cash flow projections.
The Village utilizes debt financing on large expenditures for capital
projects. When establishing debt, there are a number of factors to be
considered in the process. These factors include:
• the long -term needs of the Village
• the amount of resources available to repay the debt
There are a few ways for the Village to achieve debt financing. The
Council considers the asset's useful life and current economic
conditions to determine the appropriate financing instrument. Some
financing options available to the Village include:
• bank loan
• lease agreements (capital lease or operating lease)
• issue special revenue bonds (pledged by a specific revenue
source and limited by available revenue)
• issue general obligation bonds (require voter referendum
approval)
The Village Charter and the Constitution of the State of Florida do
not provide for a legal debt limit. However, in regards to capital
improvements, the Village has adopted a policy to limit general
obligation debt (debt pledging payment from ad valorem taxes which
must be approved by referendum) to an amount that does not exceed
five (5 %) percent of the property tax base of the Village. For Fiscal
Year 2014 -2015 this would amount to $80.45 million (tax base of
$1.6 billion) in available general obligation debt. The Village has
no outstanding General Obligation debt.
The Village's outstanding debt (principal only) as of September 30,
2013 consists of the following:
General Fund:
The Village's General Fund is debt -free!
Country Club:
Promissory Note $ 3,357,875
Capital Lease 396,055
Total Country Club $ 3,753,930
Total Debt $3,753,930
A brief description of each outstanding debt instrument and its
annual debt service requirement to maturity is listed below:
General Fund:

Fund Balance Overview
Fund Balance is generally defined as the difference between a fund's
assets and liabilities. Changes in fund balance are based on the
difference between revenues and expenditures for a given fiscal year.
An adequate fund balance is necessary for numerous reasons, such as
to have funds available in cases of emergencies, unexpected events,
cushion economic cycles and special projects. It is also used to
maintain or enhance the Village's financial position and related bond
ratings, to provide cash for operations prior to receipt of revenues and
to maintain investment earnings.
Over past years, the Village has been able to generate healthy reserves
through growth management, strategic planning, and cost containment
measures. The goal of the Village has been to use surplus reserves in
ways that positively affect its financial plan by reducing long -term
obligations. The Village does not use surpluses to offset the
subsequent year's budget, unless otherwise determined by the Village
Council.
The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) released
Statement 54 — "Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund
Type Definitions" on March 11, 2009. The Village implemented
GASB 54 in its fiscal year 2011 annual financial reports. This
statement impacts only governmental funds; it has no impact on
proprietary (r� enterprise) funds or fiduciary funds.
The requirements of this statement are intended to improve financial
reporting by providing fund balance categories and classifications that
will be more easily understood and applied. The categories are more
clearly defined to make the nature and extent of the constraints placed
on a government's fund balance more transparent by isolating that
portion of fund balance that is unavailable to support the following
year's budget.
GASB 54 eliminates the previous categories of "Reserved" and
"Unreserved" for all Governmental Fund balances, and replaces these
with five new reporting categories. These categories create a
hierarchy of constraints that control how specific amounts can be
spent. The five new reporting categories are as follows:
• Non - spendable — amounts that are not in a spendable form or
are required to be maintained intact (inventories, prepaid items,
interfund loans)
• Restricted — amounts constrained to specific purposes by their
providers (debt covenants, grant proceeds)
• Committed — amounts constrained to specific purposes by the
government itself (disaster recovery, rate stabilization,
insurance, encumbrances)
• Assigned — amounts a government intends to issue for a
specific purpose
• Unassigned — amounts that are available for any purpose
Fund Balance tables for the General Fund and the Enterprise Fund
(two major/budgetary funds) are on the following pages. These tables
represent the Village's actual fund balances as of October 01, 2013.
The actual fund balances for fiscal year 2013 -14 will be available upon
completion of the Village's annual audit in early 2015. The reserves
shown in these tables are based on conservative revenue estimates and
one hundred percent (100 %) of the budgeted expenditures being
expended.
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 45 of 294
General Fund:
The fund balance of the general fund, one of the governmental funds, is of significance because it is the primary fund financing most functions of the
Village. It is used by rating agencies as a measure of the financial strength of the government.

Strategic Planning
Strategic Planning is a structured and coordinated approach for
developing long -term organizational goals and for developing
strategies to accomplish them. It is typically used to facilitate
communication, to accommodate divergent interests, and to foster
decision making through leadership and consensus building. In
municipal government, one of the primary purposes is to set the
state for the annual budget process, providing a roadmap for
annual resource allocations.
Vision
The initial step in the strategic planning process is the
establishment of a collectively shared vision for North Palm
Beach's near -term future:
North Palm Beach will be known for our unparalleled
amenities and innovative approach to meeting the needs of
our safe and secure community through continuous
improvement in infrastructure and service delivery as
identified by our stakeholders.
Mission
The mission statement provides the foundation for all remaining
portions of the strategic planning process:
We sustain North Palm Beach as the "best place to live under
the sun" through:
• Superior services
• Timeless traditions
• Quality amenities
Core Values
The core values of an organization are the values it holds that
form the foundation on which it performs its work and conducts
itself. They describe how an organization believes it should act,
and how those beliefs should be reflected in its actions:
We create exceptional public service through:
❖ Our People
We care about our people and actively advocate diversity,
safety, and personal growth
❖ Continuous Improvement
We are committed to excellence and professionalism.
❖
Integrily
We are transparent, honest, ethical, and have mutual
respect for all people.
Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats
Critical to the strategic planning process is the understanding of
the forces, both positive and negative, that impact the Village's
ability to achieve its mission.
The Village, as an organization, has certain internal attributes that
are recognized as beneficial assets; its strengths. However, the
Village also has some internal attributes that are negative; its
weaknesses. There are those external forces in the outside world
that are beyond the Village's control or influence. Some of these
forces create favorable conditions for achievement of the
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 48 of 294
Village's mission; they are opportunities. Of course, some of the
external forces are contrary, and potentially damaging to the
Village's interests; these are threats.
The internal organizational strengths and external opportunities
represent sources of positive achievement and provide a launching
point for development of strategies designed to accomplish the
Village's vision.
The internal weaknesses and external threats represent barriers to
success but understanding them can also provide inspiration for
new strategies.
The results of the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and
Threats (SWOT) analysis are listed on the following page.

Long Term Goals
In the annual strategic planning process, Village Council revisits
and refines goals to continually adjust to the current social and
economic environment. Overall the general Village goals remain
consistent as follows:
1. Protect the Financial Integrity of the Village
2. Maintain a High Quality of Life in the Village
3. Maintain and Improve all Recreational Facilities of the
Village
4. Foster the Spirit and Participation of our Community
5. Improve the Overall Appearance of the Village
6. Continuously Improve the Way We Work
7. Implement the Pay for Performance System
The Annual Budget has been developed with these goals in mind.
The budget goals provide the overall framework for the budget
process. Village departments have reviewed their department
goals for the upcoming year to assure that the overall long -term
Village goals were addressed in their priorities for program,
service and facility requests.
Performance Measures
Performance measures form the foundation for the strategic
planning process because they are really what assure goal
accomplishment. Some measures track outputs or number of units
of service delivered over time. Others measure efficiency or how
well resources are leveraged. Each type of measure is significant
within the performance measurement system.
Village departments have included performance measures in their
department plans. Performance measures allow Village
departments to monitor implementation of projects, programs,
initiatives, and services funded through the budget; measure their
success in meeting the targeted performance; identify
opportunities to improve service delivery; inform Council as they
make strategic adjustments; and provide data to support decisions
for future resource allocation.
C'nnelncinn
The Village integrates the annual budgeting process with the
strategic planning process. The Strategic Plan helps to prioritize
how the Village will use current and future resources to achieve
identified goals. In this way the strategic plan drives budget
preparation decisions and service delivery implementation.
The Village's ongoing strategic planning process is an affirmation
and continuation of a time honored credo that we are the "best
place to live under the sun."
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 51 of 294

Each element of the plan provides an inventory of existing
conditions, an analysis of needs along with goals, objectives and
policies to guide the growth of the Village. Levels of Service
(LOS) are also established in the comprehensive plan to ensure
that infrastructure and services will be available to accommodate
new residential and commercial developments. The LOS analysis
and resultant capital expenditures are included in the Capital
Improvement element which provides the continuity between the
goals and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan and the Annual
Budget through the five (5) year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP).
The CIP identifies projects and their associated costs and is
reviewed and updated annually in both documents.
Long -Term Financial Plan
The Annual Budget contains a five year CIP and an analysis of
total projected revenues and expenditures for the same time
periods as the CIP. The projections assist management in the
planning and allocation of resources to achieve the Village
Council goals of maintaining a financially secure municipal
government.
The results of the long -range financial plan for the major
operating funds (General Fund and Country Club) are provided on
the following pages. The long -range financial plan should not
be confused with the Village's budget. The budget is the
Village's legal authority for spending. The budget focuses on
the near -term future; it is very detailed, and it must be
balanced between resources and requirements. In
comparison, the long -range financial plan has a longer time -
frame, is less detailed and is only used to help management
develop budget strategies and prioritize the use of limited
resources.

General Fund Revenues
This section includes a discussion regarding revenue sources for the
Village's FY 2014/15 General Fund Budget, how much of the total
budget it comprises, revenue trends, factors influencing the trends,
projections provided by the Florida Department of Revenue and
assumptions used in determining the projections.
Ad Valorem Taxes $11,205,587
Property taxes are the single largest revenue line item in the General
Fund Budget, making up approximately 56.41% of the total budget.
The taxable property value increased from $1.524 billion to $1.609
billion. At the millage rate of 7.3300 mils, this will generate gross
taxes for FY 2014/15 of $11.8 million. But, due to discounts for
prompt payment, state law requires that only 95% of the gross taxes be
budgeted as revenue - equating to $11,205,587.
This class of revenue has historically provided a stable source of
revenue and normally displays an increasing trend based on significant
new construction and development. However, this is no longer the
case, due to current economic conditions and the fact that the Village is
primarily a built -out community.
Millage Options:
On June 1, 2014 Palm Beach County notified the Village that the
preliminary taxable valuation was $1,592,546,177. The final taxable
valuation received on July 1 showed a valuation of $1,609,188,844.
This includes $10,987,287 in new construction.
Based on this final taxable value and current legislation, the millage
options, with respect to voting and advertising requirements for
FY 2014/15, are discussed in the following paragraphs. Please note
that the Village's current millage rate is 6.8731 mils.
$1998639106
Methodology for increasing Millage Rate:
As per current tax law (FS 200.185) the Village is required to follow
these procedures for FY 2014/15 when setting its millage rate:
6.5574 Mils (Rolled -Back Rate):
A simple majority vote is all that is required to approve the rolled -back
millage rate of 6.5574 or less. The rolled -back rate is the rate required
to produce the same amount of ad valorem tax revenues this year as the
previous year, excluding the effect of new construction. The typical
example is that as assessments increase, the millage rate decreases
proportionately to equalize the revenues.
65575 — 8.6199 Mils (Malty Vote Maximum Millage Rate):
A simple majority vote is also all that is required to approve a rate
above the rolled -back rate, up to 8.6199 mils (This rate is calculated by
adjusting the rolled -back rate by the growth in Florida per capita
personal income). However, since this is higher than the rolled -back
rate, it must be advertised as a tax increase.
8.6200 — 9.4819 Mils (Two- Thirds Vote Maximum Millaw Rate):
A super majority vote is required to increase the millage rate by up to
110% of the majority vote maximum rate.
9.4820— 10.0000 Mils (Unanimous Vote Maximum Millage Rate):
A unanimous vote is required to increase the millage rate by more than
110% of the majority vote maximum rate. However this is subject to
an overall legal ceiling for municipalities of 10 mils.

To counter the decrease in revenue brought about by property tax
reform and the economic downturn, The Village Manager asked
Department Directors to reduce spending in a manner that would
minimize the impact on our residents. This required seeking new
ways to serve our customers. While Directors did an admirable job
identifying areas to cut, a sizable portion of each department's
budget (employee cost) is not entirely within the control of its
Director.
This section includes a discussion regarding appropriations for the
Village's FY 2014/15 General Fund budget, how much of the total
budget it comprises, and assumptions used in determining the
projections.
Personal Services $14,196,952
Employee salary and benefits represent 71.47% of the total
General Fund Expenses. These costs are allocated on a per
employee basis. Assumptions used in budgeting for the major
employee costs are discussed below:
Calariae-
Performance based merit increases for FPE- eligible and non -union
personnel are budgeted at an average of 3.75% based on a 0% - 5%
scale. Salary increases for PBA and IAFF- eligible employees are
budgeted in accordance with the step -plan increases as negotiated
in their collective bargaining agreements (The IAFF Collective
Bargaining Agreement is still in negotiation).

Debt service payments are the series of payments of principal and
interest required on a debt over the fiscal year. The Village began
accelerating its debt refunding in order to pursue "debt -free status"
in 2009. The last outstanding loan instrument was paid off in
Fiscal Year 2010 and therefore there is no debt service budgeted in
the upcoming year.

Village Council
Mission Statement
To provide the highest quality of service to the residents of
North Palm Beach in the most efficient, effective, and fiscally
responsible manner by providing sound, clear policy guidance that
encourages, promotes, protects, and improves the welfare of the
Village of North Palm Beach, ensuring that North Palm Beach
remains "the best place to live under the sun."
Service Levels Narrative
Serving as the legislative branch of Village government, the Council
is comprised of five (5) officials elected Village -wide serving
two -year terms each. Councilmen in Groups 1, 3 and 5 are elected
in even years and Groups 2 and 4 are elected in odd years. At the
first Regular Session after the March election, the Council selects a
Mayor, Vice Mayor, and President Pro Tem. The Village Council
meets on the second and fourth Thursday of the month, and holds
other meetings as needed to conduct the business of the Village.
Council members keep abreast of legislative developments through
the Florida League of Cities (FLC), the Palm Beach County League
of Cities, and meetings with federal, state, and local officials.
Council members represent the Village on these boards:
• FLC Finance /Taxation/Personnel Legislative Policy Committee
• Palm Beach County League of Cities Board of Directors
• PBC Multi - Jurisdictional Issues Coordination Forum
• North County Governmental Committee
• Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council
• Regional Hazardous Materials Oversight Committee
• Lake Worth Lagoon Initiative Board
• Southeast Florida Ocean Reef Task Force
• Northlake Boulevard Corridor Task Force
Council members attend monthly meetings of Village boards on a
rotation basis in order to remain apprised of the recommendations
and activities of board members.
The Council establishes Village goals and objectives in its annual
budget and evaluates services and projects throughout the year.
The Council annually establishes tax millage rates and service fees.
Current Year Accomplishments and New Initiatives
During Fiscal Year 2013/2014, the Council enacted legislation, set
policies, and approved projects and expenditures that met its goals
and objectives and provided for the health, safety, and welfare of
Village residents.
• Created a General Fund Reserve for Future Tax Relief and
committed year -end surplus funds from FY 2013 General Fund
Budget to this reserve account. These funds may only be
used to offset a potential increase to the millage rate.
• Creation of the Future Tax Relief Fund allowed reduction of
the millage rate from 6.9723 to 6.8731 mils, the lowest rate
since 2009, while still maintaining services levels.
• Opened the new Veterans Memorial Park next to the Library.
• Funded capital expenditures from Capital Improvement Plan
(CIP) Funds, including the purchase of Police vehicles,
Public Works vehicles and equipment, thermal imaging
cameras and cardiac monitors for Fire Rescue and a lightning
detection system for Anchorage Park.
• Enhanced leisure activities by purchasing a 25 passenger bus
for Recreation trips and tours and installed new bleachers at
the Community Center. Golf Course Projects (driving range,
bunker work, and drainage) to be completed in Summer 2014
will improve the golfing experience.

Service Levels Narrative
The function of the Village Manager is to serve as the Chief
Executive Officer of the Village. The Village Manager is
responsible to the Village Council for:
• Creating a strategic focus for the organization that incorporates
goals of the Council;

New Initiatives and Goals for FY 201412015
the Police and Fire and the General Employee Pension Funds
have dramatically increased their plan funding over the past
two years. Part of the reason for this is a policy change that
prohibits employees from getting a cash payout at retirement.
The other factor has been the marked improvement in investment
results. Consequently, the Police and Fire fund is now at the
79.34 funded GASB 25 benchmark, which is an industry
standard depicting the actuarial financial health of a plan. The
General Fund is currently at 78.8 %; this represents an increase in
funded value of approximately 30% over the past couple of
years. Council is committed to continued monitoring of this
critical financial benchmark.
• Business Friendly Environment This project was part of the
Council's objective to Enhance the Spirit and Participation of
our Community. The Business Advisory Board and staff have
begun various initiatives to encourage the continued growth
of existing businesses and attraction of new firms to our
community. The relocation of the Community Development
Department to 420 US Highway 1 is more user friendly, and
customer service oriented.
In 2014, Council and staff implemented a strategic plan, which
identified 6 specific objectives, and 19 improvement projects that
support those objectives. Many of those improvement projects are •
underway and many will be commissioned if not completed in
2014/2015. Following is a review of those improvement projects.
• Unfunded Liabilities This project was part of the Council's
Financial Integrity objective and dealt with evaluating the status
and health of each of our defined benefit retirement plans.
We have had extensive discussions with the actuaries and
investment advisors for each plan and have found that both
Ordinance Update This project is a specific element of Council's
objective to Maintain a High Quality of Life in the Village.
As a complete re -write of all ordinances would be cost prohibitive
for one budget year, our goal for FY 2014/2015 is continue to
develop a plan that addresses land use codes in 2015 and
provides funding for contract and legal support.
Anchorage Park, Phase H This project relates to Council's
objective to Improve all Recreational Facilities of the Village.
The Administration has been evaluating various approaches to
improvements in storage of boats and trailers at the park. A
key to this project is to minimize the reduction in green space,
while at the same time enhancing the set of amenities that are
available for recreation. The Village Administration will be
seeking approval from Council in 2014 with the design
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 82 of 294
concept for this project. The Village has been approved for
two grants in 2014 and has applied for four additional grants
to defray the cost of this project; the first such grant will be
used, in part, to accomplish final design and the development
of bid specs for the project. We plan to proceed with that
work in 2014 with construction following in late 2015 and
2016.
• Work Process Improvements This project and all remaining
improvement projects are part of a new Council objective that
Continuously Evaluates the Way We Work. Our plan is to
involve one department at a time in mapping of work
processes. Public Works is the first department that will
accomplish this task in Fiscal Year 2014/2015.
o Appraisals and Evaluations A new web -based appraisal
system is included in this year's budget and, if approved,
will be applied in Fiscal Year 2014/2015.
o Wellness Wellness programs provide excellent benefits
for individual employees and result in significant
savings to an organization. With that in mind, we will
continue to provide initiatives to employees in an effort
to keep our insurance costs minimized. Events held
included a pedometer challenge in January;
Wellness/Heart Healthy Employee Picnic in April;
Health and Wellness Fair in May with increased vendor
and employee participation.

Human Resources
Mission Statement
To deliver customer focused services and support to all Village
departments and employees with competency, care, and quality in
support of the Village's mission and strategic priorities.
Service Levels Narrative
The Human Resources (HR) Department supports all other Village
Departments through the implementation and management of
comprehensive employee benefit programs, development and
administration of safety and workers' comp programs, ensuring of
current and compliant personnel policies and procedures, supervision of
performance and compensation programs, and support of all
employee relations issues. Development and administration of these
programs in one office ensures consistency and objectivity in their
administration.
Human Resources works to ensure all other Village departments have the
necessary resources and support to best manage their human capital. Our
department provides centralized personnel administration and record
keeping, background screening, training and development programs,
collective - bargaining support, workers' compensation case
management, and uniform application and consideration of State and
Federal labor laws and of the Village's Personnel Rules and
Regulations. Our department strives to stay abreast of all state and
federal legal changes in order to ensure full compliance across the
Village.
The Village employs 144 full -time and 131 part-time (both year -round
and seasonal) positions. Additionally, the Village offers a benefits
package to all full -time staff. Our health and welfare benefits consist of
employer- funded medical and dental coverage to all employees, as well
as optional employer- subsidized dependent coverage.
The self - funded retirement plan options offered by the Village are
extremely generous. In addition, we offer a Flexible Spending
Account, Life and AD &D insurance, Long -Term Disability, Vision, and
other optional insurance programs. The Village also offers
Education Assistance and a completely confidential Employee
Assistance Program. HR is responsible for delivering these programs
equitably across our full -time employee workforce and in full
compliance of all Federal and State healthcare regulations, (i.e.,
FLSA, PPACA, COBRA, HIPAA, ERISA, etc.).
Currently the HR Department is staffed with one (1) Director of
Human Resources, one (1) full -time Human Resources Coordinator, and
one (1) Human Resources Administrative Coordinator. The HR
Director oversees and supervises all areas of HR and risk
management. This includes providing advice and guidance regarding
personnel support and regulation, policy development and legal
compliance, employee benefit management, hiring administration,
development of training programs, objective investigation and analysis of
personnel matters, disciplinary actions, and employee complaints, to
ensure that Village policies are enforced fairly and consistently.
The HR Director is also the Village's designated Safety Coordinator
under its Village Safety Policy. As such, the HR Director chairs all
Safety Committee meetings, and ensures OSHA —level standards are met
for reporting, accident investigations, and safety improvements.
The HR Coordinator works closely with the HR Director to develop and
implement full- employment cycle support programs for all employees,
and helps to ensure the maintenance of a neutral and confidential
environment for all Village Employees. The Human Resources
Coordinator serves as a front -line liaison for the department, administering
new -hire orientation, answering employee and vendor inquiries,
maintaining confidential department records, providing project
support, resolving employee issues, and educating employees
regarding their rights and responsibilities.
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 87 of 294
The HR Administrative Coordinator also serves as a front -line liaison for
the department, answering employee and vendor inquiries,
maintaining confidential department records, providing
administrative support, reconciling billing statements, generating
correspondence, reports, producing a monthly employee newsletter,
and scheduling interviews as well as department meetings and
events.
The Human Resources Department maintains the Village's
Comprehensive Pay and Classification Plan and position descriptions
for all Village jobs. Accordingly, HR conducts market - research on
these issues and recommends modifications to Village methods and
programs as appropriate.
In addition to the duties already mentioned, the HR Department is
responsible for the following functions:
• Renewal of workers' compensation and group insurance plans;
• Labor relations and collective bargaining with Federation of
Public Employees (FPE), Police Benevolent Association (PBA),
and International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF) unions;
• Administering Employee Assistance Plan Support;
• Collaborating with the Village Clerk regarding personnel related
records requests;
• Managing all workers' compensation cases with workers'
compensation carrier and health clinic /providers; and
• Coordination of all annual employee performance evaluations.
Federal and State Human Resource Laws are in a constant state of flux.
This being the case, it is imperative that the Village HR Department
keeps a pulse on the current regulatory changes in order to ensure
that these changes are consistently communicated and implemented
across all departments. Our staff attends regular human resource and
benefit training sessions to stay up -to -date and support the Village
accordingly.
HR has partnered with the Village's Agent of Record (and health
insurance broker) to keep abreast of the changes in healthcare
regulations as mandated by the federal Affordable Care Act,
including noticing, coverage, and minimum levels of care
requirements. HR continues to work closely with the Village's
broker to negotiate the best pricing for group health insurance with a
quality carrier that has a viable network and a balanced benefits
package.
The Village currently provides full health insurance coverage to its
employees which offers a wide combination of network discounts and
in -and out -of- network pricing. The average cost for single (employee -
only) coverage has risen steadily for several years. These increases
are due to a combination of market - related inflation and the Village's
claims experience.
With less than 500 full -time employees, the Village is not a large
enough employer to be rated by the carriers on claims experience
alone. However, we recognize that keeping a positive claims
experience can help to reduce the rate at which premiums increase. In
the coming year, HR has developed an emerging Employee Wellness
Program in order to foster a cultural shift that develops employee
engagement with regard to health and wellness.
An agency's workers' compensation experience modification rating
(MOD) measures the ratio of expenses to premiums paid and is often
used as an indicator of an employer's safety record. The norm would be
a rating of 1.0 with ratings over 1.0 indicating a high ratio of workers'
compensation expenses (i.e. injury- related payments) and a rating under
1.0 indicating a low ratio of expenses. MOD ratings also affect
workers' compensation premiums; with MOD ratings over 1.0
increasing an agency's premiums and ratings under 1.0 discounting
them. The Village's MOD for the current year is 1.29 due to two large
presumption claims. The first large presumption claim will roll off at
the end of the 2014 -2015 fiscal year, and it is vital to focus on
employee safety practices and safety programs in order to lower our
Workers Comp premiums to manageable levels.

As illustrated above, the Village's workers' compensation experience
modification rating (MOD) was .92 in Fiscal Year 2012, and began to
creep up to 1.02 in Fiscal Year 2013. Catastrophic shock losses
brought it to 1.14 in 2014 and the new rate of 1.29 for the 2015
Fiscal Year, causing an anticipated 15% premium increase. The
Village needs to focus on safety training and programs for the
coming year in order to control Workers' Compensation Costs.

As a result of the costs mandated by the Affordable Care Act Medical
Act, medical premiums across the country have been increasing
exponentially over the past several years. The Village's continuous
efforts to enforce wellness in an effort to maintain a positive claims
experience has led to a lower than expected premium increase of less
than 5% for Fiscal Year 2014/15.

Mission Statement
To establish and maintain adequate internal controls that
safeguard the Village's assets and ensure they are efficiently and

Police Department
Mission Statement
To provide the highest quality of police services by maintaining
respect for individual rights and human dignity and by
empowering our members and the community to work in
partnership with the goal of improving the quality of life within
the Village of North Palm Beach.
Service Levels Narrative
The Police Department consists of thirty-one (3 1) sworn law
enforcement officers, one (1) Records Clerk and one (1) Clerical
Specialist, one (1) Police Service Aide, one (1) Crime Intelligence
Analyst and one (1) Administrative Coordinator. The Department
currently has thirteen (13) part-time personnel (one who serves as
the CALEA Manager /Captain of Professional Standards and
twelve School Crossing Guards). We have twenty three (23)
Reserve Officers and three (3) non -sworn volunteers. Patrol
officers work a twelve -hour shift schedule with a minimum
staffing requirement to provide appropriate law enforcement
coverage.
Orizanization
The Chief of Police serves as part of the Village Management
team reporting to the Village Manager and is responsible for the
overall operation and performance of all Police personnel. The
Chief communicates on a regular basis with the Village Manager,
other Village Department Directors and Village Council on all
police related matters.
The Administrative Coordinator is responsible for all secretarial
duties required by the Chief of Police. The Coordinator also
performs duties related to payroll, purchasing, and Criminal
Justice Standards and Training Commission requirements.
The Police Department consists of three (3) divisions:
• Operations/Patrol Division
• Operations Support/Criminal Investigations Division.
• Professional Standards / CALEA
Each Division is commanded by a Police Captain who is
responsible for overseeing: Patrol; Criminal Investigations;
Specialized Units; Records; and other administrative duties. The
current organizational structure has streamlined internal
communications and processes thereby improving responsiveness
and overall customer service.
Uniform Patrol
The Patrol Division consists of four (4) teams assigned to work
two (2) shifts with a minimum of four (4) police officers assigned
to each team. The minimum staffing level is three (3) police
officers and one (1) sergeant for each shift to provide the
necessary coverage 24 -hours per day.
Criminal Investigations _
Criminal Investigations section consists of one (1) sergeant, one
(1) Crime Intelligence Analyst, three (3) detectives, and one (1)
Detective /Crime Scene Technician, who are primarily assigned to
investigate and process evidence of both crimes against property
and persons and to analyze criminal activity to allow the
Department to maximize the use of personnel to prevent and deter
criminal activity.
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 116 of 294
Marine Unit
The Village of North Palm Beach, being a boating community,
has a number of waterways within its jurisdiction. Since the
Village borders Lake Worth, the Intracoastal Waterway and
Earman River, a Marine Unit is deployed to provide for the safety
of the boating public and to investigate any marine related issues.
Community Policing - Crime Prevention
A Police Sergeant is certified as a crime prevention practitioner
and is responsible for coordination of community programs,
residential and business security surveys, and acts as primary
advisor to our Police Explorers.
Training
The Police Department continues to work diligently to improve its
training programs with the realization that by providing staff with
the best training possible, their performance will be enhanced and
the delivery of services will be improved. The Training Section is
exploring new initiatives for officer development and the
Department now hosts regional classes to provide them the tools
to be successful. Officers receive regular high liability training,
along with various other classes to develop their abilities.
Traffic Safety
The Police Department continues to closely monitor its response
to traffic crashes within the Village. Because citizen safety is
paramount, the Department is always looking for ways to decrease
traffic crashes. An analysis of accident data identifies causation,
frequency, location, and time of day allowing the Department to
focus its education and enforcement efforts. In addition, the
Department deploys traffic monitoring devices to pinpoint and
verify traffic complaint issues. This proactive approach enables
the Department to maximize the use of our resources and to have
the greatest impact on the identified problem areas.
Traffic Crashes:
• 2012 total is 314
• 2013 total is 355
Enforcement Initiatives:
• 2012 3,726 citations, 654 warnings
• 2013 1,255 citations, 120 warnings
Crime Crene
The Department's fully functional crime scene component, which
began with the conversion of a retired EMS vehicle and the
assignment of a trained investigator, continues to develop. The
Crime Scene van has the needed equipment to process almost any
scene and to collect evidence that may assist in the apprehension
of a suspect or suspects. The vehicle is also outfitted to serve as a
mobile command post if the need arises.
Technology
The Department continues to research methods for staff to work
"smarter" not necessarily "harder." The Village Information
Technology Department worked with crime prevention officers to
deploy surveillance technology at key locations to assist the
Department with crime prevention and detection. Each police
vehicle is equipped with its own laptop for report writing and easy
access to crime and records information. In -car technology
includes a CAD alert system, which details significant events.
National Accreditation
The Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement
Agencies, Inc. (CALEAR) proudly announced that on July 30,
2011 the North Palm Beach Police Department received its first
national re- accreditation by meeting the commission's highly
regarded and broadly recognized body of law enforcement
standards established by CALEA.
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 117 of 294
In April 2014 the North Palm Beach Police Department completed
the third national re- accreditation on -site assessment. The
Department has been re- accredited for the 3rd term as of at the
July 2014 at the Commission Conference.
The North Palm Beach Police Department continued in the re-
accreditation process, which began six (6) years ago after
receiving the initial accreditation in 2008. The accreditation core
team continued the daunting challenge of reviewing and ensuring
compliance with all policies as well as completing inventories and
task analyses to bring the police department into compliance with
the high standards set by CALEA.
By choosing to be accredited through CALEA, the Police
Department voluntarily accepted the challenge to meet the most
rigorous set of standards designed for law enforcement in the
United States. The Police Department agreed to meet all the
standards applicable to the largest size agency defined by CALEA,
and to prove compliance with those standards on a continual basis
through documentation and inspection. Inspections occur both
internally and every three years by a team of law enforcement
professionals chosen by CALEA from non - bordering jurisdictions.
CALEA standards apply to patrol, investigations, administration,
crime prevention, property and evidence, the Reserves, the
Explorers programs, and all areas of Police Department operations.
Community Programs:
Explorer Program
The Explorer program is for individuals between the ages of 14
and 21. The participants are introduced to the many facets of law
enforcement and emergency services.
The Explorers work hand -in -hand with the Police Officers and
assist them in community policing philosophy. The program is
directed toward people who have an interest in the field of law
enforcement. Each Explorer must meet certain requirements
before being accepted into the program. The program currently
has six (6) participants.
Police Reserve Program
The Reserve program is for adult individuals who have an interest
in serving their community as part of the Law Enforcement
Department. Upon successful completion of applicant processing,
candidates must attend an Academy and pass a state exam to
become certified as Reserve Officers. They assist full -time
officers in every aspect of their jobs and provide assistance during
special events. The program currently has twenty three (23) Reserve
Officers.
Volunteers in Policing
A trained group of volunteers assist with recent victim re- contact
in the detective bureau and other administrative tasks throughout
the agency. This program currently has three (3) participants.
Securi . Surveys/Home and Business
The Department's specially trained Community Policing /Crime
Prevention staff offer free residential and business security
surveys to reduce the chances of a break -in at a residence or
business. The officer provides tips about door locks, alarm
systems; lighting, landscaping, and other areas that may help
prevent the property owner from becoming a victim. The
Department completed nineteen (19) security surveys in 2013.
Trespass Program
This program allows business owners to sign an affidavit giving
consent for police officers to act as an agent, thereby giving them
the authority to request people to vacate the premises. After the
affidavit is signed, the owner installs, (at their own expense)
specifically worded "No Trespass" signs in visible locations.
Police Officers must advise persons found on the premises that
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 118 of 294
failure to leave the area may result in arrest. Currently there are
thirty eight (38) properties involved in this program.
Combat Auto Theft (C.A.T.) Program
The C.A.T. program is used to fight back against auto theft. Upon
registration (including proof of vehicle ownership and driver's license)
the vehicle owner signs a consent form authorizing Police Officers
to conduct a traffic stop on their vehicle if the vehicle is being
operated between the hours of 1:00 A.M. and 5:00 A.M.
A yellow C.A.T. sticker is placed on the rear window notifying
Police Officers of participation in the program. Currently there are
one hundred and eighty five (185) participants enrolled in the C.A.T.
program.
Alert Program
Crime and information bulletins are distributed to residents and
business owners to notify them of current crime trends and
prevention strategies. The philosophy is to create an atmosphere
of awareness that reduces the chances of residents and business
owners becoming victims of crime. This prevention strategy is
accomplished by a park, walk, and talk technique and by distributing
flyers, faxes, and e -mail. The Department distributed twenty five
hundred (2,500) flyers in 2013.
Cell Phones to Seniors
Cell phones are collected and then given out to senior citizens
throughout the area for emergency use. The Department distributed
twelve (12) cell phones in 2013.
Crime Opportuni . Cards
A card is issued to a citizen /vehicle /residence if a law enforcement
officer observes the opportunity for a potential crime to occur
(i.e. valuables left in plain view, doors unlocked, etc). This is done
in an effort to eliminate the criminal's opportunity to commit
crime and prevent the citizen from becoming a victim.
Gun Lock Program
Free gun locks are given to residents to keep their homes safe through
secured firearms. The Department distributed four hundred (400) gun
locks in 2013.
Crime Prevention Meetings
Officers conduct crime prevention meetings throughout the
community to learn and discuss what problems may be occurring and
ways to help one another combat crime. This is an open dialogue
between all parties involved, finding solutions to issues. This program
also helps to organize neighborhoods into Crime Watch groups. The
Department conducted one hundred and twelve (112) meetings in
2013.
Neighborhood Watch Meetings
Preventing crime in the community is a shared responsibility
between the police and residents. Neighborhood Watch has been
entrusted with the responsibility of empowering Village residents
to keep their neighborhoods safe. Safe neighborhoods and crime
prevention education of Village residents is the Department's challenge
and goal. The program encourages Village citizens to become
actively involved with the department through practicing crime
prevention techniques and reporting crime or suspicious activity.
The Department attended thirty -nine (39) meetings throughout 2013.
Safety Awareness Training Seminars
The concept behind Safety Awareness training is to empower
individuals and to encourage them to work as a team with police
officers. Participants are taught how crime prevention relates to them
and how to anticipate and recognize their crime -risk potential.
Citizens are educated and provided information on a variety of topics
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 119 of 294
including personal safety, child safety, internet safety, gun safety,
identity theft, and how to protect their home and vehicle from
burglary. The Department conducted thirty-two (32) seminars in
2013.
Workers On Watch (WOW)
This program encourages the many employees of the Village to
remain vigilant and immediately report any suspicious activity to
the police. This program is a cooperative effort between the
Department and the other entities within the Village to help
prevent crime and assist with quality of life issues. The
department conducted four (4) Workers' on Watch meetings in
2013.
Child Identification Program
This program is designed to promote the safety of children by
focusing on prevention strategies. The equipment allows the capture
of a child's contact, medical information, photograph and fingerprints.
This allows law enforcement to provide quick and accurate response in
the event of a crisis. A total of two hundred and thirty (230) children
were fingerprinted in 2013.
D.A.R.E. Program
Drug Abuse Resistance Education (D.A.R.E.) is offered in
community schools by specially trained officers. In 2013 we
graduated 100 sixth grade students from the program.
Personnel Chan
The personnel /title changes for Fiscal Year 2014/2015 are:
• Title change from "CALEA Manager" to "CALEA
Manager /Captain of Professional Standards" for one (1)
part-time position;
• Title change from "Public Safety Aide" to "Police Service
Aide" for one (1) full -time position;
• Addition of one (1) full -time Crime Intelligence Analyst
position/Deletion of one (1) full -time Public Safety Aide
position;

Current Year Accomplishments and New Initiatives
Department staff is continually encouraged to think outside of the
box, utilize their initiative, and remain ever diligent in the ongoing
quest for better service delivery methods. As a result, the Department
continues to identify those areas requiring process refinement and
remains open to new methodology, innovative ideas, and other
enhancements to existing programs. Many of the Department's
ongoing, successful and newly proposed programs are represented
in this summary.
North Coun . Dispatch Center (NCDC)
The NPB Police Department is transitioning its CAD, dispatch
and 911 functions to NCDC. Joining NCDC not only provides
substantial cost savings in FY 2015 and subsequent years, but also
provides an infrastructure for more efficient and effective Policing
of our Village.
Transitional Neighborhood Teams
Transitional Neighborhood teams (TNT) consist of one captain,
two sergeants, two detectives, one K -9 Officer, eight police
officers and one code enforcement officer working part-time
towards the goal of addressing those transitional neighborhoods
identified through crime trends and quality of life issues as being
at -risk portions of the community.
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 120 of 294
• The focus of TNT is to address Section 8 housing fraud in
partnership with HUD and the County housing authority.
This approach yields positive results in removing felons
from our community.
• Increased traffic enforcement in targeted transitional
neighborhoods, which leads to other offense enforcement.
• Truant interdiction partners TNT with school police and
parents engaging on truants who become at risk for
committing property crimes when absent from school.
The desired outcome of TNT is neighborhood stabilization and
improved quality of life.
During Fiscal Year 2013 -2014, the Police Department achieved
the following new initiatives and improvement goals:
• Increased community participation /meetings;

Fire Rescue
Mission Statement
The North Palm Beach Fire Rescue Department is committed to
providing exceptional life safety services through the delivery of
quality, professional fire suppression, emergency medical
services, fire code enforcement and community education.
Service Levels Narrative
The Fire Rescue Department consists of a fire chief, fire captain, a
fire inspector, three fire rescue lieutenants, seventeen
firefighter /paramedics, one firefighter/EMT and eighteen volunteers.
The Fire Chief serves as part of the Village management team
reporting to the Village Manager. The Fire Chief manages the
resources of the Fire Rescue Department, performing
administrative duties such as budget preparation and long term
planning. The Fire Chief coordinates with other Village
departments, most often Community Development, to minimize
conflicts between code issues that might affect projects within the
Village. The Fire Chief may serve in any capacity up to and
including incident commander during a man -made or natural disaster.
The Fire Captain serves as training officer and liaison to other fire
and EMS organizations. As such, the Captain represents the
department at various countywide association meetings. The
Captain arranges training required to maintain certification and
skills, and maintains the training records necessary to comply with
county and state laws.
The Fire Inspector is responsible for all annual existing business
inspections as well as inspecting new construction for code
compliance. In addition, the Fire Inspector reviews all building
plans and permits for code compliance.
The Fire Rescue Lieutenants are each assigned a six - personnel
shift. Each shift works a 24 -hour on duty /48 -hour off -duty
schedule with each member having an additional scheduled day
off every three weeks; this averages to a 48 -hour work week.
Mandatory minimum daily staffing is five people, with two on an
ambulance and three on a fire engine. The Lieutenants are
responsible for the day -to -day operations; responding to
emergency calls, in -house training drills, apparatus and equipment
maintenance and station maintenance. The Lieutenants are also
called upon to provide public /group tours of the fire station and
present fire safety information to school groups and citizen
organizations.
Our volunteers are required to hold the same certifications as our
career personnel; Firefighter II and EMT or paramedic
certification. They are also required to attend at least two monthly
fire drills and ride a minimum of twenty -four hours per month
with our career personnel. They can be assigned any duty for which
they are certified, and supplement, but never replace career personnel.

During Fiscal Year 2014, the Fire Rescue Department achieved
the following new initiatives and goals for improvement:

Public Works
Mission Statement
To provide the highest quality of service to our citizens and
businesses by maintaining Village facilities, grounds, and
roadways with the most effective and cost efficient methods and
by enhancing the safety of the community.
Service Level Narrative
Public Works is comprised of four divisions: Public Works
Administration; Fleet & Facilities Maintenance; Street & Grounds
Maintenance; and Sanitation. It is the responsibility of each of
these divisions to facilitate maintenance of the Village
infrastructure while maintaining a focus on the needs, concerns,
and safety of the residents.
The Public Works Administration is comprised of the Director of
Public Works and one (1) full -time Administrative Coordinator.
The Director of Public Works oversees and supervises all areas of
the Public Works Department, provides professional managerial
oversight to the department, and assistance to Village Administration
and the public. The Director is responsible for staffing, scheduling,
budgetary controls, and maintaining appropriate customer service
levels in the department while overseeing the workflow of staff.
The Director enforces Village and departmental policies and
guidelines to ensure adequate safety procedures are followed and
that the Public Works staff is operating as efficiently and productively
as possible.
The Administrative Coordinator assists the Director with the day -
to -day operations of the department including processing payroll
and invoices, correspondence with contractors and consultants,
and answering inquiries from the public.
The Fleet and Facilities Division is comprised of one (1)
Supervisor, one (1) Senior Trades Mechanic, three (3) Trades
Mechanics, and two (2) Mechanics.
The Division's Trades Mechanics are responsible for the repair,
maintenance, and overall appearance of Village buildings and
facilities including Village Hall, Public Safety, Library, the
Community Center, Anchorage Park and Marina, Osborne Park,
Lakeside Park, Public Works Complex, Tennis Facility, Country
Club clubhouse, and all Village- maintained street lights. The
Facility Maintenance staff constructs and assembles furniture,
completes minor office remodeling, monitors building operations,
performs preventive maintenance and makes repairs to HVAC
equipment, electrical, lighting, plumbing, and street lights.
Facility staff is also responsible for the appearance (painting and
repair) of all Village buildings and assists in the repair of irrigation
pump motors.
The Facilities Division provides general maintenance for the Golf
Pro Shop, Restaurant/Lounge and Country Club Administrative offices.
These labor charges are submitted to the Country Club Administration
for reimbursement to the General Fund. No tax dollars are
utilized for facilities at the North Palm Beach Country Club,
which are included in the Enterprise Fund operations.
Major Facility Maintenance priorities include:
• Continuing to upgrade HVAC systems, replacing older
systems to take advantage of newer energy saving models
and reducing the impacts of equipment failure; and
• Developing a street lighting enhancement plan for neighborhood
areas without or with limited nighttime lighting. Lighting
themes, style, color and materials would enhance safety and
improve the Village's identity; and
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 132 of 294
• Investigate energy saving equipment and devices to reduce
electrical consumption throughout the Village; and
• Complete the transition to asset management; and
• Continuing the program of preventative maintenance for
facilities to maintain a high quality of appearance.
The Division's Fleet Maintenance staff maintains and repairs
vehicles and equipment utilized by the Public Safety, Community
Development, Public Works, and Parks & Recreation Departments
to ensure that all Village -owned vehicles are maintained at or above
levels recommended by manufacturers.
The Village fleet/equipment consists of 104 licensed vehicles and
numerous pieces of off -road and small equipment (i.e. chain saws,
generators, grinders, pumps, etc.). Another aspect of the division is
the renovation of the three wheel carts that are utilized for the
collection of garbage in the Village. Fleet provides fabrication and
welding for the various departments. This division also maintains
various carts used in the driving range operations at the Country Club.
Those labor charges are then reimbursed by the Country Club.
Major Fleet Maintenance renovation priorities for the proposed
budget include:
• Oversight of vehicle purchases to ensure equipment is
compatible with its intended use.
The Sanitation Division currently consists of one (1) Supervisor,
six (6) Sanitation Driver /Operators, and eleven (11) Sanitation
Collectors.
The Division provides side door garbage collection 3 -times a
week, curbside vegetation and bulk trash items 2 -times a week,
and curbside recycling once a week. The Village's Monday
through Friday, 5- days -a -week sanitation service is a unique and
costly level of service when compared to surrounding municipalities.
Sanitation continues to be impacted by substantial rises in fuel
costs, vehicle maintenance costs, personnel injuries, and the cost
of capital equipment.
Acting on the Village Council's goal of evaluating the way in
which we work, the Department will seek during this fiscal year to
transition from rear -load to front -load commercial collection
vehicles. The transition includes a full route conversion of
commercial dumpsters. The transition will reduce operating costs
and increase revenue generation.
The Sanitation Division recognizes the rising costs and impact to
customer service created by workers' compensation claims. In an
effort to positively affect these areas, the Sanitation Division will
continue to discuss, train, and promote safety practices and to hold
safety programs for staff throughout the year.
The Street Maintenance Division is comprised of one (1) Supervisor,
two (2) Equipment Operators, two (2) Street Maintenance
Workers, one (1) Grounds Maintenance Worker, one (1) Senior
Irrigation Tech, and one (1) Irrigation Tech.
The Street Maintenance Division is responsible for the maintenance
and repair of the infrastructure throughout the Village. Work
includes preparation of streets for the Village's annual overlay
program; patching potholes; repair and replacement of sidewalks;
repair or replacement of traffic signs; addressing line of sight
issues at all intersections within Village limits, maintenance of the
Village storm drainage system; and administration of NPDES
permitting, inspections and reporting requirements.
This Division oversees the work of the landscape contractor who
is responsible for all landscape maintenance of Village properties,
including the various parks. This Division also installs new
vegetation as part of the Village's revitalization program. Further
responsibilities include the replacement of landscape material that
is damaged as the result of automobile accidents or vandalism.
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 133 of 294

improve the overall appearance of the Village. These projects
include:
• Develop a median revitalization plan to provide for visually
attractive landscaping while reducing water consumption;
• Introduce annual /seasonal color to Village parks, grounds,

• Improve landscape at Village gateways, Lighthouse Drive,
Prosperity Farms Rd., and U.S. Highway 1.
• Continue with the very successful outsourcing of maintenance

Proramming
The Parks & Recreation Department offers a wide variety of
activities, classes, workshops, and leisure opportunities for all
ages. Classes, workshops, clinics, and lectures are offered by 45+
independent contractors. Winter, Spring and Summer Camp
programs are conducted for youths 7 — 15 years of age. Activities
are also offered on days the public schools are not in session.
The Parks & Recreation Department largely utilizes independent
contractors to provide these services. These contractors have
agreements with the Village, but are not Village employees and
are not eligible for benefits. Additionally, because the fees paid to
these contractors are off -set by the revenues they bring into the
Village, and due to the fluctuating nature of the services they
provide, an exact count of these positions is not represented on the
Department's organizational chart.

Mission Statement
This Division of the General Fund is for the express purpose of
accounting for expenditures that cannot be directly associated with or
easily identified to any other particular department/division. Some of
the items accounted for within this Division include the following:
• General Fund Debt Service payments
• General Fund Council Contingency /Transfers to other funds
• General Fund Property/Casualty & General Liability Insurance
allocation
Debt Service
The Village began accelerating its debt refunding in order to pursue
"debt -free status" in 2009. The last outstanding loan instrument was
paid off in Fiscal Year 2010 ... the Village's General Fund is debt free!
Contingency
A contingency is a reserve that is set aside to accommodate
unanticipated expenditures. For the FY 2014/15 budget, the Village
Council opted to remove this item from the budget and will utilize
unassigned fund balance for unanticipated expenditures.
Transfers
In FY 2015, the Council has set aside two - tenths (2/10) of a mil (or
$305,746.00) to be transferred to the Capital Projects Fund to
finance the General Fund's Capital Improvement Plan.
Property /Casualty & General Liability Insurance
Effective October 1, 2006, the Village discontinued its participation
in the Southeast Risk Management Association (SERMA) and joined
the Florida Municipal Insurance Trust (FMIT). However, as a
former participant in SERMA, the Village is liable for claims
incurred through September 30, 2006.
In 2010, the Village initiated a Request for Proposals (RFP) to
provide a property/casualty and general liability insurance program
for the Village. As a result of this RFP process, the Village joined
Public Risk Management (PRM) effective October 1, 2011.

North Palm Beach Country Club
Mission Statement
The North Palm Beach Country Club (NPBCC) is committed to
offering a quality recreational facility to its residents, members and
customers. Its mission is to do so by maintaining self - sustaining
operations through an integrated combination of pricing, marketing
and operating controls that capitalize on the facility's ideal locale
adjacent to the Intracoastal Waterway, the golf club's Jack Nicklaus
"Signature" course design, and exemplary customer service that reflects
the high ideals of the Club amenities, special functions and users.
Service Levels Narrative — Golf Operation
In November 2006, the North Palm Beach Country Club opened its
newly renovated golf course, becoming only the second public
municipal golf course in the United States to bear the prestigious
moniker of a Jack Nicklaus "Signature" Golf Course. Our Nicklaus
"Signature" course offers six (6) sets of tees so each golfer may
challenge the course in a manner that is equal to their individual
game. The course will play up to 7,071 yards at a par 71. A putting
green is located by hole number one and a pitching /chipping green
is located by hole number 15 for golfers to perfect their "short game."
The club also has a members -only short game area on the north
side of the maintenance facility.
Club golf operations are open seven (7) days -a -week offering
individual, group and clinic instruction from on -staff PGA
professionals, monthly tournaments for all levels of skill and
experience, and a lighted driving range. The golf shop offers a
variety of soft goods, golf accessories, and golf clubs for sale.
The Golf Operation is headed up by the Director of Golf Operations.
The Director is assisted by one (1) full -time First Assistant Golf
Professional, one (1) full -time Outside Service Coordinator, one (1)
part-time Member Relations Coordinator, one (1) part-time Sales
and Marketing Representative, eight (8) part-time Outside Service
Attendants, eleven (11) part-time Ranger/Driving Range
Attendants, and seven (7) part-time Golf Shop Attendants. The
operation also has one (1) full -time Accounting Clerk located in
the Finance Department at Village Hall. This staffing arrangement
best reflects the customer service needs of the golf club.
The Golf Course Maintenance Division of the Golf Operation is
outsourced to International Golf Maintenance (IGM) of Orlando,
Florida. This partnership allows a higher level of conditioning on
the Nicklaus "Signature" course layout and realizes a significant
monetary savings to the Village. The maintenance of the buildings
falls under the supervision of the Public Works Department.
Outsourcing the maintenance of the golf course and having Public
Works oversee the clubhouse maintenance is the most prudent and
fiscally responsible way to operate the facility.
The Village Administration anticipates new golfers applying for
membership to the Nicklaus "Signature" golf course in the
upcoming year. In order to provide reasonable member access to
course play while preserving access to "walk -in" guests during
high season and holidays, a maximum of 375 annual golf
memberships will be allowed for the upcoming Fiscal Year.
Available memberships will continue to be prioritized as follows:
• Renewal of existing club members;
• Residents of North Palm Beach;
• New members sponsored by existing members in our
membership initiative program; and
• Non - resident applications.
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 193 of 294
In order to maintain the "Signature" course, the proposed Golf budget
reflects funding for additional trees and sod. These items will be
needed to continue the "fine tuning" of the golf course as it moves
into its ninth season of play.
Personnel Changes — Golf Operation
The personnel /title changes for Fiscal Year 2014/2015 are:
• Addition of one (1) part-time Golf Shop Attendant.
Service Levels Narrative — Food & Beverage (F &B) Operation
The Country Club Food & Beverage (F &B) Operation is a division
of the North Palm Beach Country Club. F &B works cooperatively
with the Golf, Tennis, and Pool Operations to enhance tournaments,
special events and the overall Club experience. F &B serves the
general public and provides banquet services for private special events.
North Palm Beach Country Club "Village Tavern" Restaurant, Bar and
Banquet operations are conducted by Village staff under the guidance
of the Director of Food & Beverage. The Food & Beverage Director
is assisted by one (1) full -time Kitchen Manager /Chef, two (2) full -
time Assistant Restaurant Managers, one (1) part -time Banquet
Event Coordinator, Twenty (20) part-time F &B Service Personnel,
six (6) part-time Dishwashers, four (4) part-time Snack Bar
Attendants, and six (6) part-time Line Cooks.
The Restaurant and Bar is open to the public, serving the membership
and community seven (7) days -a -week with modifiable hours of
operation predicated upon seasonal activities and overall profitability.
Restaurant hours and daily staffing levels are modified in accordance
with seasonal and other business factors to provide attentive and
friendly service with a suitable ratio of service personnel to customers.
Quality food at a competitive value and friendly professional service
is a cornerstone of the Restaurant operation. The Village Tavern serves
freshly - prepared quality cuisine, that is targeted to appeal to a variety
of consumers. The Village Tavern serves daily specials, quick food
for golfers, and offers a menu on the golf cart for convenient
call -ahead service.
The Snack Bar, located adjacent to the Pool deck, services both the
patrons of the pool as well as golfers seeking to purchase quick
food and beverage items during the summer months.
Beverage Cart services are provided for the Golf Course. Cart
service provides a variety of snacks, sandwiches, and beverage
options, including alcoholic beverages, 7 days a week (season) and
modifiable hours (off season).
The sale and distribution of alcoholic beverages, both on the golf
course and within the facilities, will be strictly regulated in
accordance with the prevailing beverage laws.
The Banquet Room is available for business meetings, parties, and
special events. Food and beverage services are available and are
coordinated through the F &B Operation. Banquet services are critical
to the overall success of the F &B Division. The facility fills a
niche within the community by offering a welcoming atmosphere,
beautiful setting, quality food, and great service at an affordable cost.
The F &B Division will focus its marketing efforts in the upcoming
fiscal year to target the Northern Palm Beach County market area.

Member Tournaments and Events: Country Club Administration
understands the amount and type of events our members desire.
The number of events will increase slightly and the offerings will be
more aligned with demand, thus adding value to our memberships. The
Administration has successfully raised the Club's visibility, and
consequently revenue, by offering more outside events, outings,
clinics, and camps. Junior golf options were substantially expanded,
which will build a more stable financial future.

Banquet and Special Events: The number of banquets and special
events is a good indicator of the overall health of the F &B Operation,
as about 56% of total revenue comes from banquets and special events.
Golf Memberships: The number of golf members is a good indicator
of the Club's overall health, as members account for 40% of total play.
Since most members renew at the beginning of the fiscal year, a
substantial amount of 1st quarter revenue is derived from memberships,
which helps cover operating expenses throughout the year.

Country Club Revenues $399169041
The Country Club is operated as a self - supporting enterprise for
which fees charged to users are intended to pay for the full cost of
operations. This section includes a discussion regarding revenue
sources for the Village's FY 2014/15 Country Club Budget. The
major source of Country Club revenues (approx 69 %) are derived from
golf memberships, cart rentals, walking fees, greens fees, and the
driving range.
The budgeted revenues are estimated based on the number of
memberships, plays, and cart rentals over past years; fees for these
items are adjusted yearly to accommodate the estimated budgeted
expenses of the Country Club Operations.
The following assumptions were used when preparing the Country
Club Golf Revenue Estimates:
• 44,850 anticipated rounds
• 256 memberships
Membership $578,045

Pension:
The Village's annual employer contribution increased for both the
General Employee Pension Plan and the Police & Fire Pension Plan
for Fiscal Year 2014/2015. The Village's ICMA -RC pensions remain
constant at an employer contribution of 15 %.
Last year, the Village's required employer contribution for the General
Employee Pension Plan was 20.82 %. For Fiscal Year 2014/2015, the
Village's annual required employer contribution is 19.54 %, or down
by 1.28 %. For the Police & Fire Pension Plan the required annual
employer contribution for Fiscal Year 2014/2015 increased from
21.34 %, to 21.49% or up by .70 %. The reasons for these increases are
based on asset returns and actuarial experience.

Health / Dental Insurance:
Due to costs incurred by the pending Patient Protection and
Affordable Care Act legislation and significantly large claims
experience in the past year, our current vendor Cigna originally quoted
an estimated renewal increase of 20.5 %. In order to secure the most
advantageous renewals possible for the Village and its employees,
Village Administration worked with our insurance broker to send out
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 219 of 294
an RFP for our employee health and welfare benefits in May of 2014.
After strong negotiations the Village was offered a comparable plan from
Cigna at a favorable medical benefits increase rate of 3 %, and slight
increases for a few auxiliary benefits.
Increases in medical insurance are driven by both the Village's
individual claims experience rating and the increasing costs within the
health care industry as a whole. The best way to combat these rising
costs is to continue to augment and build upon our successful
employee wellness program. With the support of the Sr. Management
Team, the Village will continue to partner with CIGNA to build upon
our current wellness program and encourage wellness awareness for all
of our employees and their dependents.
The Village covers the full premium cost of the health plan and lower
cost dental plan for all employees. For dependent coverage, the
Village funds 80% of the premium for the medical plan and lower cost
dental plan, with the balance paid by the employee. Employees
choosing higher cost dental plan options pay 100% of the premium
cost difference between the higher and lower cost plans.
With single coverage, for both the health and dental insurance plans,
the lower cost plan is paid entirely by the Village. For employee plus
one (health insurance only) and the family coverage options (for health
and dental insurance), the lower cost plan is paid 80% by the Village
and the balance by the employee. Employees choosing higher cost
plan options will pay 100% of the cost difference between the higher
and lower cost plans.
Projected monthly employee costs are as follows:
Health Insurance:
CIGNA HMO Plan
Employee Only Coverage $ 0.00 per month
Employee + One Coverage $ 110.28 per month
Employee + Family Coverage $ 226.68 per month
Dental Insurance:
CIGNA HMO Plan

CIGNA PPO Plan
Employee Only Coverage
Employee + Family Coverage
$ 0.00 per month
$ 5.58 per month
$ 13.48 per month
$ 52.98 per month
The above monthly employee rates are based upon total monthly plan
costs to the Village as follow:
Health Insurance:
Cigna HMO Plan
Employee Only Coverage $ 612.63 per month
Employee + One $1,053.75 per month
Employee + Family Coverage $1,519.36 per month

Employee Only Coverage $ 18.01 per month
Employee + Family Coverage $ 47.26 per month

RECOMMENDATION:
The Administration recommends Council consideration and
adoption of the Village's Comprehensive Pay and
Classification Plan as follows and with the above incorporated
changes.
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 220 of 294
FISCAL YEAR 2014/2015
VILLAGE OF NORTH PALM BEACH
COMPREHENSIVE PAY AND
CLASSIFICATION PLAN
SECTION 1. ESTABLISHMENT
A Comprehensive Pay and Classification Plan for the Village of
North Palm Beach (the "Pay Plan "), pertaining to all positions,
including those that may be specified elsewhere in negotiated
collective bargaining agreements or individual employment
contracts, is hereby established. This document will supersede and
replace the pay related provisions of the Village's Personnel Rules
and Regulations.
SECTION 2. DEVELOPMENT OF PAY RANGES
The Pay Plan establishes pay ranges (grades) for each classification.
Such established salary ranges of pay have been determined with due
regard to ranges of pay for other classes, relative difficulty and
responsibility of positions in the class, prevailing rates of pay for
similar positions, and the financial position of the Village and other
economic considerations. Appendix A sets forth the pay ranges
(grades) with minimum and maximum levels. Base pay is, by
definition, the pay level within pay range for each position
classification. Base pay may not exceed the maximum pay rate for
the position classification. For General (non- bargaining unit)
Employees the Pay Plan provides for a pay range, without regard to
specific pay level within that range. Adjustments shown to salary
ranges for FPE, PBA and IAFF positions are reflected for budgeting
purposes and will be subject to bargaining.
SECTION 3. APPLICABILITY
All employees of the Village of North Palm Beach, except as
provided elsewhere, shall be compensated in accordance with this
plan and the exempt (salaried) and non - exempt positions, depending
upon job classification.
SECTION 4. IMPLEMENTATION
The new pay plan will be implemented October 1, 2014. No general
(non- union) employees will receive a cost of living adjustment
(COLA) effective October 1, 2014. The pay range (grade) of each
General Employee shall remain the same as Fiscal Year 2013/2014,
as reflected in the attached classification plan. Bargaining unit
employees shall receive base wage increases only in accordance with
their collective bargaining agreement.
SECTION 5. HIRING PAY RATES
The minimum rate established for a job class shall be paid upon
employment, except that the "New- Hired" rate in amounts above the
minimum may be authorized if the department head submits
adequate written justification and such action is approved by the
Village Manager. Approval will be based on the exceptional
qualifications of the appointee or inability to employ adequate
personnel at the minimum rate.
SECTION 6. MERIT INCREASE
All employees of the Village of North Palm Beach, except as
provided elsewhere, shall be eligible for a merit increase on their
employee anniversary date. The anniversary date shall be defined as
the employee's entry date into his /her present position. After the one
(1) year period in their present position, employees shall be eligible
for a merit increase, as defined herein, and shall be eligible at their
annual anniversary date every year from that time forward.
Employees may be granted such merit increase from zero to five
percent (0 -5 %) of salary, based upon documented and demonstrated
workplace performance as recommended by the employee's
Supervisor and Department Director. All merit increases shall be
submitted to the Village Manager (or Human Resources Department)
for review, consideration and written approval prior to discussion or
delivery to the employee.
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 221 of 294
Merit increases are not automatic. Such merit increase is contingent
upon receipt of a satisfactory performance evaluation. Employees
who are at the maximum or exceed the maximum pay for their
classification will not be eligible for a merit increase in their present
Pay Plan classification, but may be eligible for a lump sum
performance bonus. The Village Manager shall approve merit
increases equal to or greater than 4.5 %. Contractual provisions will
govern bargaining unit employee merit increases.
Lump Sum Performance Bonus: Employees whose compensation
is equal to the maximum annual pay range for their position shall be
eligible for the annual performance incentive bonus program.
Annual performance review bonuses would be paid lump -sum based
upon written recommendation and documentation from the
Department Head; subject to written approval of the Village Manager
or designee as follows:
Exceptional Level II performance review rating - $ 1,200
Successful Level I through Exceptional Level I performance
review rating - $ 900
Development Required through Below Standards
performance review rating - $ 0
The bonus payment shall not be included in an employee's regular
base rate of pay and shall not be carried forward in subsequent years.
SECTION 7. PROMOTIONS, DEMOTIONS, TRANSFERS,
AND RECLASSIFICATIONS
In the event of a promotion to a higher pay range (grade), employees
will be placed in the new position's pay range (grade) at a base pay
level that does not exceed more than 10% of the base pay level they
occupy in their current pay range not to exceed the pay range
maximum. Upon the written recommendation of the Department
Director and written approval by the Village Manager, an employee
that is within two (2) months of their existing anniversary / annual
review date may receive a merit increase prior to the implementation
of their recommended promotion. Bargaining unit employees shall
receive promotional increases in accordance with their respective
collective bargaining agreement, unless otherwise negotiated.
In the event of an involuntary demotion an employee will be placed
in the same relative position for the lower position grade as he /she
enjoyed in the previous classification, as long as the pay does not
decrease more than 10 %. For a voluntary demotion to a lower pay
range (grade), employee shall be placed in the same relative position
for the lower position grade while having their current pay "frozen"
at their current level — with future pay adjustments being used to
"offset" this higher pay level until fully absorbed.
In the event an employee is transferred to a position with the same
pay grade, their rate of pay will remain the same.
The Village retains the right to evaluate and if appropriate, make
personnel classification changes (reclassifications) when appropriate
in support of providing the most cost effective and efficient delivery
of municipal services to the residents of the Village.
SECTION 8. PART -TIME PAY & MERIT INCREASE
Part-time employees shall be paid the hourly wage as outlined in the
attached Pay Plan, at the pay range (grade) minimum unless
otherwise recommended by the Department Director, and approved
by the Village Manager.
Permanent Part-Time employ (who must be scheduled annually
for work in more than 46 or more weeks) shall be eligible for a merit
increase upon receipt of a satisfactory evaluation. Part-time
employees who leave Village employment and are subsequently
rehired, are not considered to have continuous service, and are only
eligible for a merit increase annually based upon their rehire date.
Seasonal part-time employ (scheduled during a 12 -month period
work for less than 46 weeks), who have worked during the past
season and return for the upcoming season, may be eligible for a
merit increase at the beginning of the upcoming season, when prior
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 222 of 294
employment ended due to Village operational direction. Those
employees who leave employment prior to the end of the season and
may later be rehired by the Village, are considered new employees
and not eligible for a merit increase upon their rehire date.
SECTION 9. OVERTIME /COMPENSATORY TIME
Overtime is authorized by the Village Manager or Department
Heads. Overtime is paid to hourly employees at one and one -half
(11/2) times the hourly rate for all hours worked in excess of forty (40)
hours per week. Upon prior approval of the Department Head or the
Village Manager hourly employees may receive compensatory time
off for any work performed in excess of the regularly scheduled
hours in a normal work week at one and one -half (11/2) hours for
every hour for overtime hours worked. Compensatory time for
hourly employees shall accrue to no more than sixty (60) hours.
Unused accrued compensatory time shall be paid upon termination of
employment. Bargaining unit employees shall receive overtime and
compensatory time in accordance with their respective collective
bargaining agreement, unless otherwise negotiated.
SECTION 10. WORK ASSIGNMENTS — HIGHER PAY
GRADE
The Village administration recommends creating a pay system for
General employees who work in an established higher pay grade
classification. If a General employee is authorized and directed by
the Village Manager or designee to temporarily work in an
established higher pay grade classification, the employee shall be
paid five percent (5 %) above their base pay rate for the period of
time worked in the higher pay grade classification. Increases for
temporary work assignments that do not conform to established pay
grade classifications are handled on a case -by -case basis at the
discretion of the Village Manager.
SECTION 11. BENEFIT ELIGIBILITY
Employees in full -time, budgeted positions [regularly scheduled to
work thirty (30) or more hours per week or an excess of 1,560 hours
within the fiscal year] are eligible for participation in the Village's
pension plans, health and dental insurance, long -term disability
insurance, and employer paid life insurance programs according to
the requirements of these plans /programs.
Permanent part-time employees [who work less than thirty (30) hours
per week or less than 1,560 hours per fiscal year] are not eligible to
participate in the Village's pension plans, health and dental
insurance, long -term disability insurance, employer paid life
insurance programs, and sick leave incentive programs.
SECTION 12. MISCELLANEOUS BENEFITSANCENTIVES
Pension Contributions — The Village's annual required employer
pension contributions for General Employee Pension employees will
be 19.54% of payroll, 21.49% of payroll for Police & Fire Pension
employees, and 15% of payroll for ICMA -RC Pension employees.
The definition and limitations of earnings shall be as outlined in each
respective Village Pension Plan.
457 Deferred Compensation Contributions — The Village will
match a non - union, full -time employee's 457 Deferred
Compensation plan through ICMA -RC based on a contribution rate
of 50 -cents for every dollar of employee contribution — up to a
monthly Village contribution limit of $60 mo. ($720 yr.) and paid on
a bi- weekly basis. Bargaining unit employees shall receive deferred
compensation accordance with their respective collective bargaining
agreement, unless otherwise negotiated.
Long Term Disability Insurance — The Village's long -term
disability shall continue for all full -time employees, unless otherwise
negotiated.
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 223 of 294
Life Insurance — The Village life insurance program for all full -time

compensation ($50,000, or $25,000 after the age of 70), unless
otherwise negotiated.
Sick Leave Incentive Award Program — Regular full -time (non -
probationary) general employees who do not use any sick leave
within any continuous (6) six -month period are eligible to earn eight
(8) hours annual leave time as incentive for not using sick leave.
Bargaining unit employees shall receive sick leave incentive(s) in
accordance with their respective collective bargaining agreement,
unless otherwise negotiated.
Certification Incentive - The certification incentive program will
continue to provide certification pay for job related certifications as
recommended by the Department Head and approved by the Village
Manager. Certification incentive pay will be issued as follows:
• Certifications requiring an examination and continuing
education -$1,000
• Certifications requiring continuing education and no
examination -$1,000
• Certification requiring an examination with no continuing
education -$500
The maximum number of certifications eligible for the certification
incentive will be three (3) per individual. The certification incentive
will not be included in the base pay rate, and payment will be
prorated based on the standard pay cycle. Employees whose base
pay plus other types of pay compensation has reached the pay range
maximum will be ineligible for certification pay above the pay range
maximum. For certification requiring renewal or continuing
education, the employee is required to meet the appropriate renewal
and to have the certification renewed in order to continue receiving
the certification incentive pay. In addition, if an employee receiving
EMT certification is promoted to a Paramedic position, the EMT
certification pay will be removed.
Health/Dental Insurance Benefit - For all full -time employees, the
Village will pay full cost of the lower -cost single coverage and 80%
of the lower -cost employee plus one ( +1) for health insurance and
family coverage for health and dental insurance. Employees shall
pay all costs above the Village payment of above coverage including
any increased premium expense of the higher -cost health/dental plans
the employee may choose to select. Employees will have health and
dental insurance premiums taken through the payroll process on a
twice monthly basis.

Account provides employees the ability to voluntarily set aside tax -
deferred compensation for authorized personal expenses such as
medical and child care expenses.
Education Assistance Program — The Village shall follow an
education assistance program that provides a maximum benefit of
$5250 per fiscal year. The assistance amount is based on the per
credit rate established by the State of Florida University at the time
of course enrollment, and depends on the cost of the class and the
grade received. Employees must request approval for a course prior
to the start of the course (at the time of enrollment) along with a
notarized promissory note and then must submit their official grade
report within thirty (30) days of successful completion of the
course(s). The Village will make all approved payments within sixty
(60) days of receipt of the necessary paperwork.
Employee Assistance Program (EAP) - The Village offers an
Employee Assistance Program through the McLaughlin Young. The

Capital Improvement Plan
INTRODUCTION
Municipal government provides needed and desired services to the
public and in order to provide these services, the Village must
furnish and maintain capital facilities and equipment. This is
accomplished through the use of a Capital Improvement Plan (CIP).
The CIP is a five year projection of future improvements to existing
facilities, the acquisition of land and buildings, construction of new
facilities and major equipment purchases. This includes the regular
replacement of equipment such as vehicles and computer
hardware /software. The Village Council adopts the five year plan as
a part of the annual budgeting process. The first year of the plan is
the only year for which funding is authorized. The remaining
four years of the CIP lists the capital proiects that will be done in
the future and their estimated cost ... funding requirements are
identified, but are not authorized.
The Village of North Palm Beach defines a "capital outlay" as the
cost(s) associated with the acquisition of land, land improvements,
buildings, building improvements, construction in progress,
machinery and equipment, vehicles and infrastructure, and other
tangible or intangible assets that are used in operations and that have
an initial useful life extending beyond a single reporting period.
Capital assets and infrastructure are capitalized and depreciated as
outlined in the capitalization table below:
Caaitalization Threshold Table:
The plan places projects in priority order, and schedules the projects
for funding and implementation. As presented, it is a five -year
forecast that allows the Village to plan ahead for its new capital and
renewal and replacement needs.
Programming capital requirements over time can promote better use
of the Village's financial resources, reduce costs and assist in the
coordination of public and private development. Careful
management of its assets keeps the Village poised for flexible and
responsive strategic planning that allows the Village to proactively
prepare the groundwork for capital projects so when funding
opportunities arise, a plan is ready to be implemented. By looking
beyond year -to -year budgeting and projecting what, where, when

management of its assets keeps the Village poised for flexible and

beyond year -to -year budgeting and projecting what, where, when
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 231 of 294
and how capital investments should be made, capital planning
enables the Village to maintain an effective level of service for the
present and future population.
THE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN (CIP)
The result of this continuing planning process is the CIP, which is
the Village's five -year roadmap for creating, maintaining, and
funding present and future capital requirements. The CIP serves as a
planning instrument in conjunction with the Village Comprehensive
Plan and the Village Council's Goals to identify needed capital
projects and coordinate the financing and timing of improvements in
a way that maximizes the return to the public. It provides a planned
systematic approach to utilizing the Village financial resources in the
most responsive and efficient manner to meet its service and facility
needs. It serves as the "blueprint" for the future of the community
and is a management and planning tool.
The underlying strategy of the CIP is to plan for capital expenditures
necessary for the safe and efficient provision of public services in
accordance with Village policies and objectives adopted in the
Village's Comprehensive Plan. It involves conducting needs
assessments and allowing for flexibility to take advantage of
opportunities for capital investment. Capital planning decisions are
made based on an analysis of each project which includes: cost
versus benefits, capital renewal strategies, repair- versus - replacement
costs and new service demands. A critical element of a balanced
CIP is the provision of funds to both preserve or enhance existing
facilities and provide new assets to respond to changing service
needs.
While the program serves as the long range plan, it is reviewed and
revised annually in conjunction with the budget. Projects and their
scopes are subject to change as the needs of the community become
more defined and projects move closer to final implementation.
Priorities may be changed due to funding opportunities or
circumstances that cause a more rapid deterioration of an asset.
Projects may be revised for significant costing variances.
The adoption of the CIP is neither a commitment to a particular
project nor a limitation to a particular cost. As a basic tool for
scheduling anticipated capital projects, it is a key element in
planning and controlling future capital financing. When adopted, the
CIP provides the framework for the Village's management team and
the Village Council with respect to investment planning, project
planning and managing any debt.
CIP REVIEW
The Village Manager is responsible for reviewing capital project
requests and providing recommendations to the Village Council.
Each department submits requests for its capital funding
requirements to the Village Manager. These requests could be for
something as minor as the purchase of a piece of equipment to the
complete rebuild /new installation of a piece of infrastructure.
The Village Manager, along with the Finance Director and
Department Head, conduct an in -depth analysis of the impact of the
CIP on cash flow and financial obligations, as well as the Village's
ability to finance, process, design and ultimately maintain projects.
The fiscal impact for each individual project (including future
maintenance and replacement costs), is also analyzed. The overall
goal is to develop CIP recommendations that:
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 232 of 294
• Preserve the past, by investing in the continued upgrade of
Village assets and infrastructure;
• Protect the present with improvements to Village facilities
and infrastructure;
• Plan for the future.
CIP CRITERIA & CATEGORIES
The CIP is developed through input by professional staff, citizens of
North Palm Beach, and elected Village officials. There are typically
more proposals than can be funded in the five -year CIP period, so
the projects are evaluated and ranked in order of priority according
to the following guidelines:
a) Whether the proposed project is financially feasible, in terms
of its impact upon Village budget potential;
b) Whether the project is needed to protect public health and
safety, to fulfill the Village's legal commitment to provide
facilities and services, or to preserve, achieve full use of, or
increase the efficiency of existing facilities;
c) Whether the project represents a logical extension of
facilities and services within a designated Village Planning
Area; and
d) Whether or not the proposed project is consistent with plans
of State agencies and the South Florida Water Management.
Further, the projects are broken down into the following categories:
1. The project is urgent and /or mandated, and must be
completed quickly. The Village could face severe
consequences if the project is delayed, possibly impacting the
public health, safety, and welfare of the community, or
having a significant impact on the financial well being of the
Village. The project must be initiated or
financial /opportunity losses will result.
2. The project is important and addressing it is necessary. The
project impacts safety, law enforcement, public health,
welfare, economic base, and /or quality of life in the
community.
3. The project would enhance the quality of life and would
provide a benefit to the community. Completion of the
project would improve the community providing cultural,
recreational, and /or aesthetic effects.
4. The project would be an improvement to the community, but
need not be completed within a five -year CIP.
Based on the criteria and category, the project is either included in
the CIP or excluded.
CIP POLICIES
• The Village will adopt the first year of a multi -year plan for
capital improvements, update it annually and make every
attempt to complete all capital improvements in accordance
with the plan.
• The Village will coordinate the development of the CIP
budget with the development of the operating budget to
ensure future operating expenditures and revenues associated
with new capital improvements will be projected and
incorporated into the current and future operating budgets.
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 233 of 294
• The Village will maintain its physical assets at a level
adequate to protect the Village's capital investment and
minimize future maintenance and replacement costs.
• In making or providing of capital improvements, The Village
shall not incur a general obligation debt requiring the full
faith and credit and taxing power of the Village that exceeds
five (5 %) of the property tax base of the Village. For Fiscal
Year 2015, this amounts to $80.45 million. The Village has
no general obligation debt.
CIP FINANCING/FUNDING ALTERNATIVES
Capital improvements may be funded by a variety of means
depending on the nature of the project, availability of funds, and the
policies of Village Council. Financing decisions are made based on
established Village policies and available financing options directly
related to project timing and choice of revenue sources. The funding
methodology for the CIP is reliant upon available resources
including regular operating funds, funds from grants and user fees,
useful life of the improvement, and sharing the costs between current
and future users. While some projects can be delayed until funds
from existing revenues are available, others cannot. The Village
explores all options such as ad valorem taxes, grants, developer
contributions, user fees, bonds, loans, and undesignated reserves to
fund improvements. The following financing sources are available
to fund the CIP:
• Ad Valorem Taxes: The Village does not use these funds as a
debt security due largely to the required electoral approval
(voter referendum) prior to issuance. Property taxes are
directly linked to the assessed value of individual property,
not to the consumption of specific goods and services.
• Non -Ad Valorem Revenues: These types of revenues can be
pledged to support various types of bond issues. Such bonds
are similar to general obligation bonds in that proceeds are
often used for general government purposes and repayment is
unrelated to the revenue generating capacity of the project
being financed. However, unlike general obligation bonds,
non -ad valorem revenue bonds are payable solely from
revenues derived from the pledged revenue (such as sales tax,
local option fuel tax, and the guaranteed portion of municipal
sharing).
• User Fees and Charges: These revenues include a variety of
license and permit fees, facility and program fees, and fines.
They are rarely used as debt security for non - Enterprise Fund
capital projects, but could be a source of direct funding of a
small capital improvement.
• Enterprise Fund User Fees: These revenues are derived from
self - supporting business enterprises (Country Club) which
provide services in return for compensation. The enterprise
revenue used to secure debt is commonly termed "net -
revenue" consisting of gross revenues less operating costs.
• Note: A written, short-term promise to repay a specified
amount of principal and interest on a certain date, payable
from a defined source of anticipated revenue. Usually notes
mature in one year or less. Rarely used by the Village.
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 234 of 294
• Commercial Paper: Generally defined as short term,
unsecured promissory notes issued by organizations of
recognized credit quality, usually a bank. Rarely used by the
Village.
• Grant: Contribution or gift of cash or other asset from
another government to be used or expended for a specific
purpose, activity or facility.
• Developer Contributions: Monies paid by developers in lieu
of land dedications. These contributions are used for parks
and recreational purposes.
• Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) Funds: Periodically,
General Fund budgetary savings at fiscal year -end are
transferred to the Village's Capital Projects Fund as "CIP
Funds ". These savings roll over from year to year and are
utilized for funding the Five -Year Capital Improvement Plan
(CIP); this process reduces the impact of the CIP on the
Village's Annual General Fund Budget and millage rate.
Village Council approval is required for both the transfer and
use of CIP Funds.
• Unassigned Fund Balance: Fund balance that has not been
assigned to other funds and has not been restricted,
committed or assigned to specific purposes within the general
fund.
• Bond: An issuer's obligation to repay a principal amount on
a certain date (maturity date) with interest at a stated rate.
Bonds are distinguishable from notes in that notes mature in
a much shorter time period.
General Obligation Bonds: A bond secured by the
full faith and credit of the Village's ad valorem taxing
power. These are not used by the Village due to
the requirement for a voter referendum.
Revenue Bonds: Bonds payable from a specific
revenue source, not the full faith and credit of an
issuer's taxing power and require no electoral
approval. Pledged revenues are often generated by
the operating or project being financed.
The administrative ability to seek and utilize the best possible
source, or combination of sources, from the various alternatives for
financing Capital Improvements can maximize the Village's Capital
Improvement Plan, saving the cost of inefficiencies, which occur
from not adequately addressing capital needs. The future
development, growth and general well being of our citizens are
directly related to an affordable and realistic Capital Improvement
Plan.
THE CIP SCHEDULE AND PROJECT LISTS
The CIP includes a comprehensive listing of all projects contained in
the Five -Year CIP. Projects included in the CIP were evaluated
based on the criteria mentioned above. Application of these criteria
ensures that each project recommended for Council consideration
does indeed support the policy objectives of the Village's long -term
planning documents and identifies a basis for scheduling and
allocation of resources. The Fiscal Year 2015 -2019 CIP
recommends a total investment of $9.3 million in the Village of
North Palm Beach's capital facilities and equipment during a
five -year period.
FY 2015 Adopted Budget Page 235 of 294
The first year (2015) is the most active and important year of the CIP. The total budget request for capital improvements in FY 2015 is $3,753,500;
however, $10,000 will be funded in the General Fund Annual Budget. The remaining amount ($3,743,500) will be funded as follows: $2,100,000
will be funded with Grant Funds and $1,643,500 will be funded with CIP Funds ($1,643,500 was transferred from the General Fund Unassigned
Fund Balance to fund the FY 2015 portion of the CIP). A brief summary of the first year of the plan (2015) is as follows:

In conjunction with the Sanitation Division fleet conversion, it will be necessary to complete a full route
conversion from rear -load
to front -load dumpsters. The route conversion would eliminate the costly
expense to businesses
and multi - family buildings in purchasing and maintaining dumpsters.
Additionally, the conversion
will reduce Public Works annual operating expenses and allow for the
development of a new
revenue source. Salvage value for replaced dumpsters is anticipated to be
$20,000.

Public Works Streets & Grounds Division vehicle 434 is a 2000 Ford F450 Crew Cab Flatbed.
Reduction in annual maintenance
expense associated with this
equipment.
Additionally, due to changes in operational means and methods, this vehicle is operationally obsolete.
The proposed replacement vehicle is a 2014 Ford F450 Crew Cab High -Wall Dump -Bed. The
replacement vehicle has a greater towing capacity, high -wall aluminum bed, and the ability to dump the
bed. These options provide greater capability and reduce staff time dedicated to tasks. We anticipate
recovering $7,000 with the surplus sell of the existing vehicle.
