Dear Residents, As we enter our new fiscal year in North Palm Beach, I am very excited about the future of our Village. Home prices have risen, and should continue in that trend. Water Club has begun construction, and new businesses are moving into our Village. We are currently working on a vision for our Country Club that will provide a diversity of services to our residents. Starting in November, the Country Club Restaurant will be open form 7 am—7 pm, 7 days a week. If you have not done so already, please stop in to sample our menu. You will not be disappointed! In that same train of thought, please take an opportunity to frequent our local restaurants and businesses. Your patronage assures their vitality, and helps to attract new businesses to our Village. Starting this month, I will be at the Country Club Restaurant on Tuesday, October 14th and 28th at 8 am, and Thursday, October 9th and 23rd at 5:30 pm to meet for a cup of coffee or conversation with interested residents. Lastly, Saturday, October 4th is Touch a Truck and Fire Safety Fair at the Community Center. Your chil- dren and grandchildren will love it. I look forward to seeing you there!

A Message from the Village Manager—Jim Kelly SUPPORT OUR TROOPS FOR THE HOLIDAYS Village of North Palm Beach “The Best Place to Live Under the Sun” SAVE THE DATE: Veterans Memorial Park Ceremony November 11, 2014 A sampling of some of the Memorial Bricks ordered by residents for the new Veterans Memorial Park. Please contact Joanna Sharp in the Village Manager’s office at (561) 904-2122 for more information. Last year’s Grand Opening Ceremony of the Veterans Memorial Park was a huge success, with over three hundred veterans, residents, and public officials in attendance. On Veteran’s Day, the Village of North Palm Beach will be hosting its second annual ceremony. County Commissioner Hal Valeche, will be the keynote speaker this year. Mr. Valeche is a highly decorated combat veteran who flew 85 combat missions in Vietnam, logged 230 carrier landings, and received six awards of the Air Medal while serving in the U.S. Navy. He is also a Yale Graduate. We are honored to have him as our local County Representative as well as a veteran who has valiantly served our country. Please save the date on November 11th, Veteran’s Day, at 10:00 a.m. for this solemn ceremony. It will provide an opportunity for the community to recognize the service and sacrifice of our veterans, but it will also be an opportunity for families and friends of deceased and living veterans to recognize them for their individual contributions in defense of our country. We have a number of ways that you and your family can recognize someone special to you, by creating a lasting monument to their service as a part of the memorial. We have selected an array of options that are priced from $100 for an engraved paver brick, benches, trees and other options. NORTH PALM BEACH RANKED ONE OF THE TOP 20 SAFEST CITIES TO LIVE IN!

Solodar volunteered for the Planning Commission in 2009, and currently serves as Vice Chair. Don’s prior service as President of the Old Port Cove Property Owners Association, as well as President of the Lake Point Tower Condominium Association, made offering his services in the interest of the Village a natural transition. Don hails from New York City, where he was a senior executive with the New York Stock Exchange until his retirement in 1999. Don and his wife Carrie have a son and daughter and five grandchildren. In addition to his love of the theatre, Don is a sports enthusiast and avid National Football fan. Don is a graduate of the Advanced Management Program at Harvard Business School and received his BA from the American University School of Government and Public Administration in Washington, DC. As a student, Don was able to combine education with his love of travel by completing a comparative government workshop abroad, which afforded him the opportunity to visit Dachau concentration camp and brought him to East Berlin and West Berlin four weeks before the Berlin Wall was erected in 1962. First paying job and what you learned from it? Accounts Receivable Clerk. I learned the importance of job timeliness, completeness, and group interaction; and the importance of being in a firm that is the acquirer rather than the firm being acquired. Best business, career, or other advice you’ve received? Stay “in” with the “outs;” don’t bet against the inevitable; and, don’t get caught between a dog’s hind legs and a fire hydrant! Advice you’d give to high school students? Challenge yourself; reach for the highest rung on the ladder. Favorite childhood memory or activity? Enjoying summers at Fire Island, New York. Favorite restaurant? Entre Nous Bistro. With whom would you like to have dinner? 1. Leonardo da Vinci. 2. Benjamin Franklin. What do you see ahead for North Palm Beach? NPB has a number of challenges – an aging Country Club facility; an unnecessarily large footprint at the site of the former Panama Hattie’s, which could negatively impact traffic and congestion in the northeast portion of the Village; and a waterfront that is becoming more and more the potential drop off point for unwanted dredging materials from outside projects. A strong balance sheet and dedi- cated Council members should be able to work with staff to address these challenges in the weeks and months ahead. In his own words: “I have had the opportunity in the past to serve on the Boards of a number of organizations – business related and philanthropic – and have always believed that giving is the greatest of gifts.” Parks and Recreation News PAGE 5 The Recreation Department is registering runners/walkers for the 5K Ghost Run to be held on Saturday, Oct. 18th.

Instructor: Lexi Lautzker SCHOOL NEWS Appliance Safety in Your Home From all around us, we hear safety messages and it is easy to forget the impact these simple reminders have in making our home a safe place to live. Fires can happen to any of us, but the good news is that most fires are predictable and preventable. Electrical haz- ards cause up to 150,000 fires per year, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. Take a few valuable moments, go room-to-room and do a quick safety check. See if you are doing all you can do to prevent an appliance fire in your home. Kitchen and Bathrooms: Do you unplug appliances that are not needed when they are not in use; especially ones that have a heat source? Keep the stove and oven surfaces free of grease, as well as, the stove vent/fan cover. Clean it monthly. Keep all things that can burn, 3 feet from these sources of heat. Put a lid on a pan with a grease fire. Turn off the heat and let the fire put itself out because of the lack of oxygen. Turn the vent off when there is a fire to pre- vent it going into the ducts. If there is a fire in a microwave or conventional oven, close the door. Hit the “off” button. Let the fire go out. Never leave cooking unattended; an appliance is only as safe as it’s operator. Dryer, Furnace and Water Heater: Remember dryers are large sources of heat. Don’t put things on top the dry- er when using it. Empty the lint trap after every use, clean out the dryer vent from the house to the outside (per manufacturer instructions) at least eve- ry year. Have your water heater set 120 de- grees or less, to prevent burns and scalds. Have the water heater checked by a professional once a year. Any appli- ance that burns fuel inefficiently has the potential of leaking carbon mon- oxide into the air around you. Remember that natural gas appliances have open flames. Be sure the areas around gas appliances and vent pipes are kept clear of combustible materials like laundry, paper, paints, solvents and propane cylinders. Call your gas company if you smell the odor of natural gas when the ap- pliance is off. Living Room and Bedrooms: If you use a space heater, remember to keep anything that can burn, at least 3 feet away. Never leave a room with it on. If you have a torchiere lamp, consider it a heat source. General All Over the House: Check all the cords for cuts, fraying or burn spots. Don’t let them get in knots or let pets chew on them. It is generally recommended that there not be more than 2 cords per outlet, unless it is made for more. Overloading carries too much electrici- ty, which generates heat in undetecta- ble amounts. The heat causes wear on the internal wiring system and can ignite a fire. Remember only use extension cords for temporary use, never permanent. Never place cords under rugs or place where you could be walking on them. This can break down the normal insu- lation, putting you at risk. Always dry your hands before touching electric appliances. Appliance safety with children: Pause and ask yourself, is my child old /tall enough to use this appliance safely? Can they read and understand the graphics, knobs or dials? Do they have adult supervision? Do you have safety systems in- stalled to keep smaller children from turning on appliances or playing with the outlets in your house? Teach them to unplug cords by the plug, not the cord. This could cause a burn or fire. It only takes one tragic moment to change your life when you have a fire. Time better spent, is in preventing one.

Tuesday, Oct. 21 @ 7:00 PM LIBRARY NEWS Halloween Safety Tips Do not allow a child to go “Trick or Treating” alone. An adult should accompany young children and older children should take a friend. Be certain to accompany young children to the door of every house they approach. Do not stay in the car. Make sure that parents are familiar with every house and all people from which the children receive treats. Children should be cautioned that they SHOULD NEVER enter any home without prior permission from their parents. Children should be cautioned NEVER to approach any vehicle, occupied or not, unless they are accom- panied by a parent. Make sure that all children carry a flashlight and/or wear reflective clothing. (Reflective tape and striping can be added to a costume or Trick or Treat bag for increased visibility.) When using facial masks, make sure that children can see properly. Remember to remove the mask prior to crossing a street, driveway or alley. Children should be warned NEVER to approach any house that is not well lit and does not have a porch or “outside” light on. Children should be cautioned to remember any suspi- cious incidents and report them to their parents and/ or the police. Children should be cautioned to run away from peo- ple who try to trick them with special treats (especially if the person is in a vehicle). Follow us on Facebook!
