MEMORANDUM
To: Village Council
Michael R. Couzzo, Village Manager
From: Catherine A. Harding, Community Development Director
Date: September 24, 2008
Subject: Draft of Village's Comprehensive Plan Evaluation and Appraisal Report
INTRODUCTION AND EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This report is comprised of 13 applications for amendments to the Village of Tequesta's
Comprehensive Plan. The Village's Comprehensive Plan Evaluation and Appraisal
Report was adopted in May 2007, and found sufficient by the Florida Department of
Community Affairs on July 23, 2007. These amendments are intended to: implement
the recommendations contained in the Village's adopted Evaluation and Appraisal
Report; generally update the Plan and its goals, objectives-and policies, and; address
subsequent changes in State growth management legislation. The proposed
amendments are collectively referred to as Evaluation and Appraisal Report-based
amendments.
The Village of Tequesta is a municipality of 5,871 residents located in northeast Palm
Beach County. Incorporated in 1957, the Village occupies 2.28 square miles (1,456
acres) bounded by: Martin County to the north; the Town of Jupiter, Jupiter Inlet Colony,
unincorporated Palm Beach County, and the Loxahatchee River to the south; the
Atlantic Ocean, unincorporated Palm Beach County, and the Intracoastal waterway to
the east, and; the northwest fork of the Loxahatchee River to the west.
Residential development is the primary land use in the Village, comprising 548 acres,
38% of the total land area. Residential canals and water bodies comprise 300 acres
(21 %), recreation and open space uses comprise 254.3 acres (17%), and conservation
areas comprise 7.1 acres (.5%). Commercial uses comprise 79.09 acres (5%), and are
primarily concentrated along US-1, Cypress Drive South, and the Village center area.
Public buildings and lands comprise 21 acres (1.5%), while transportation facilities,
including public rights-of--ways, streets and roadways, comprise 215 acres (14.9%).
Only 14.7 acres (1 %) in the Village are vacant and available for future development.
These areas include ten vacant single family lots, a 4.2 acre site in the Mixed Use
District that could be development at up to 18 units per acre, and discontinued
commercial uses along US-1.
With its extensive waterfront property, high quality residential development, extensive
park system; and natural beauty, the Village of Tequesta offers it residents a high
quality of fife and small town ambiance in a major metropolitan region. Within the five,
ten and 20 year planning periods, the Village does not project significant new
development or redevelopment to occur within its boundaries, or significant population
growth. Redevelopment needs are minimal, and are primarily limited to streetscape
improvements in the strip commercial areas along US -1. Because of these factors, no
major issues were identified in the Evaluation and Appraisal Report. The amendments,
while significant in number, are generally intended to update dates and references,
delete obsolete objectives and policies, provide new or amend existing objectives and
policies to address new statutory requirements or changing conditions, -and improve
readability and organization.

INTRODUCTION AND EXECUTIVE SUIVIIIAAf~Y
This report is comprised of 13 applications for amendments to the Village of Tequesta's
Comprehensive Plan. The Village's Comprehensive Plan Evaluation and Appraisal
Report was adopted in May 2007, and found sufficient by the Florida Department of
Community Affairs on July 23, 2007. These amendments are intended to: implement the
recommendations contained in the Village's adopted Evaluation and Appraisal Report;
generally update the Plan and its goals, objectives and policies, and; address
subsequent changes in State growth management legislation. The proposed
amendments are collectively referred to as Evaluation and Appraisal Report-based
amendments. Only goals, objectives, policies and text for which amendments are
recommended, or new goals, objectives and policies, are included. Additions are
denoted by underline; deletions by st~ik~.
The Village of Tequesta is a municipality of 5,871 residents located in northeast Palm
Beach County. Incorporated in 1957, the Village occupies 2.28 square miles (1,459.25
acres) bounded by: Martin County to the north; the Town of Jupiter, Town of Jupiter
Inlet County, unincorporated Palm Beach County, and the Loxahatchee River to the
south; the Atlantic Ocean, unincorporated Palm Beach County, and the Intracoastal
waterway to the east, and; the northwest fork of the Loxahatchee River to the west.
Residential development is the primary land use in the Village, comprising
approximately 548 acres, thirty-eight percent (38%) of the total land area. Residential
canals and water bodies comprise approximately 299 acres (21 %), recreation and open
space uses comprise approximately 254 acres (17%), and conservation areas comprise
approximately seven (7) acres (.5%). Commercial uses comprise approximately 82
acres (5%), and are primarily concentrated along US-1, Cypress Drive South, and the
Village center area. Public buildings and lands comprise approximately 21 acres
(1.5%), while other public facilities comprise approximately 39 acres and transportation
facilities, including public rights of ways, streets and roadways, comprise approximately
214 acres (14.9%). Only approximately 14 acres (1 %) in the Village are vacant and
available for future development. These areas include ten vacant single family lots, a
4.2 acre site in the Mixed Use District that could be developed at up to 18 units per
acre, and discontinued commercial uses along US-1.
With its extensive waterfront property, high quality residential development, extensive
park system, and natural beauty, the Village of Tequesta offers its residents a high
quality of life and small town ambiance in a major metropolitan region. Within the five,
ten and 20 year planning periods, the Village does not project significant new
development or redevelopment to occur within its boundaries, or significant population
growth. Redevelopment needs are minimal, and are primarily limited to streetscape
improvements in the strip commercial areas along US-1. Because of these factors, no
major issues were identified in the Evaluation and Appraisal Report. The amendments,
while significant in number, are generally intended to update dates and references,
delete obsolete objectives and policies, provide new or amend existing objectives and
1
policies to address new statutory requirements or changing conditions, and improve
' readability and organization.
The 13 applications contained in this report correspond to the Comprehensive Plan
' elements and subelements to which amendments are recommended.
