FROM: Jeffery C. Newell, Director of Community Developme
- ,
DATE: April 4, 2002
SUBJECT: Bank Atlantic
101 U.S. One North
Site Plan Review for Conversion of Existing 20' High Bank Sign
Attached are nineteen (18) sets of packets for the above subject project. Please place this item on
the agenda of the April 11, 2002 Council meeting for consideration.
Community Savings has been acquired by Bank Atlantic. The applicant wishes to convert the
existing 20' high Community Savings freestanding sign to a 20' high pole sign for Bank Atlantic.
The Sign Code requires that signs not in a shopping center, located within the C-2 Community
Commercial district, meet the following criteria:
• Maximum 20' in height from finished grade
• Have a minimum setback of 10' from property line
• Not exceed 60 square feet in area
• Must be located within the middle one-third of the property fronting on the public street.
The structural portion of the sign will remain and be incorporated into the new sign. This is
being done because, without the applicant seeking a variance, there is no way to meet the
requirement to locate the sign in the middle one-third of the property and meet the 10' setback
requirement.
Staff recommends approval.

"Preliminary Annexation Report"
The Village Council has placed on its April 11, 2002, agenda an item to discuss
the feasibility and potential for future annexations into the Village. Village
staff and consultants have been working cooperatively with County Planning
Division staff to identify existing unincorporated enclave areas that are adjacent
to Tequesta's corporate limits and which might be logical potential areas for
annexation into Tequesta. Four areas have been initially identified for
investigation: Bermuda Terrace, Pine Tree Drive, Jupiter Manor and
Anchorage Point. A "Preliminary Annexation Report" has been prepared for
discussion at the April 11, 2002, Village Council meeting (copy enclosed). It
analyzes the costs and benefits of annexation to both the residents of the
potential areas and the Village of Tequesta. The report analyzes only the
financial/fiscal implications of annexation. Village staff hopes to receive the
following direction from Council:
1) to meet formally with each of the neighborhoods identified in
the report to present the cost/benefit analysis to them, and to
identify any other issues or concerns of annexation that the
neighborhoods may have; and
2) If, after these neighborhood meetings the Village Council
decides to pursue annexation of any or all of these areas, that
they do so pursuant to entering into an interlocal agreement
with the Board of County Commissioners as part of the
County's Annexation Incentive Program.
The Village and Palm Beach County have a unique opportunity to provide an
incentive to the residents of these potential annexation areas by cost sharing an
upcoming special assessment for facility improvements made to these areas.

"PRELIMINARY ANNEXATION
REPORT"
VILLAGE OF TEQUESTA
January, 2002
PREFACE
Iri looking toward the future growth and development of the Village of Tequesta, Village
staff and consultants have b-eeri directed to investigate the feasibility of future
annexations. There are a myriad of factors that can influence future annexations
including various financial and nonfinancial considerations. Property owners almost
always want to know what the cost of annexation will be. Likewise, the Village needs to
understand the fiscal impacts on their local government. There are other non -fiscal and
intangible costs and benefits that must be considered when pursing annexation (e.g.
quality of life considerations such as increased police and fire protection, easy access to
local government, code enforcement, etc.) However, this preliminary annexation report
analyzes only, the fiscal and financial implications of annexation.
The Village may have a very unique opportunity to provide a viable incentive to property
owners that was not available to them in past annexation attempts. The Palm Beach
County Board of Commissioners has adopted an Annexation Incentive Program. The
primary purposes of the program are to reduce the assessment for facility improvements
for owners of real property within an enclave or pocket area; to encourage municipal
acceptance of the annexation of unincorporated enclaves and pockets; and to eliminate
the remaining unincorporated enclaves and pockets. Recently, the Village and ENCON
have made substantial facility improvements including water, sewer, paving and other
improvements to areas currently located within the Village corporate limits, and to areas
located within unincorporated enclave areas; all of which are located within the Village
water system service area and ENCON's service area. The areas lying within
unincorporated enclaves are Bermuda Terrace, Pine Tree Drive, Anchorage Point and
Jupiter Manor.
ENCON will be levying a sewer assessment estimated to be approximately $7,500 per
lot. D iscussions w ith P alm Beach County Planning have generated an interest in cost
sharing the assessment as an incentive to annexation of the enclave areas. ENCON staff
has indicated that this arrangement would not create any significant problem to theta
The Village and County would have to agree, through Interlocal Agreement pursuant to
the Annexation Incentive Program, to this cost share incentive. This Preliminary
Annexation Report analyzes the costs and benefits to both property owners and the
Village of Tequesta before and after annexation.
It is important to note that the County's objective in exercising the Annexation Incentive
Program is to eliminate enclaves and pocket areas; not to reduce them in size. Therefore,
Bermuda Terrace and Pine Tree Drive would have to be annexed as one (1) area to
eliminate the entire existing enclave that they currently create. Likewise, Anchorage
Point and Jupiter Manor would have to be similarly annexed as one (1) area.
COST / SAVINGS ANALYSIS
w
COST/SAVINGS ANALYSIS
Four (4) different areas have been identified as potential Annexation areas. They are
Bermuda Terrace, Pine Tree Drive, Anchorage Point and Jupiter Manor. The last attempt
at annexing these areas into the Village of Tequesta was unsuccessful, but the Palm
Beach County Annexation Incentive Program may provide the vehicle to encourage
annexation o f these areas. A 11 four (4) areas have recently been provided with water,
sewer, paving and other improvements. While the County's Annexation Incentive
Program is designed for provision of infrastructure improvements and is supposed to be
initiated prior to the actual improvements, the Palm Beach County Planning staff has
indicated that there would be an interest in cost sharing the ENCON Sewer Assessment.
Pursuant to the Annexation Incentive Program, if agreed upon by Interlocal Agreement
between the County and Tequesta, the County would bear 1/3 of the assessment cost, the
Village would bear 1/3 of the assessment cost and the resident would pay 1/3 of the cost.
Obviously, this would create a cost savings incentive to the resident. The Village would
have to decide whether or not bearing 1/3 cost of the total ENCON Sewer Assessment
would be a good investment for Tequesta.
All four (4) potential annexation areas are analyzed based on costs and savings unique to
their particular area. A brief description of each area and its respective cost/savings
analysis is provided herein. Please note that the Cost/Savings Analysis sheets have been
marked PRELIMINARY and "Not Official" — To be used for discussion purposes only,
because the costs and savings are based on certain assumptions and could vary somewhat.
Bermuda Terrace
Bermuda Terrace subdivision contains 127 lots with an average taxable value per lot of
$91,500. The taxable value represents the assessed value minus the homestead
exemption and any other allowable exemptions. A property owner in the unincorporated
Bermuda Terrace subdivision currently pays 20.0304 mils in countywide and other ad
valorem taxes per annum. If annexed into the Village, the same property owner would
pay the 20.0304 County mils minus 3.0500 mils of PBC Fire Rescue service tax that
would be eliminated after annexation; plus the 6.7305 mils levied by the Village.
There are certain non -ad valorem taxes that property owners pay as well. For example,
property owners in the unincorporated Bermuda Terrace pay for refuse and recycling
services provided by the Palm Beach County Solid Waste Authority (PBCSWA). These
services cost $201.00 per year for property owners in the unincorporated County. if
annexed in the Village, Bermuda Terrace property owners would pay a lesser annual fee
of $198.55; thus, realizing a small savings for these same services. Property owners in
Bermuda Terrace are not currently assessed for the Tequesta Stormwater Utility.
However, if annexed into the Village, property owners would pay the annual Tequesta
Stormwater Utility non -ad valorem assessment of $35.52 per lot.
Various utility taxes, franchise fees and surcharges are levied by local governments and
at different rates. For purposes of this cost/savings analysis, the only utilities analyzed
2
are water and electricity because they represent the most significant cost differences to
individual property owners in terms of taxes, fees and surcharges. The Village of
Tequesta already provides water services to Bermuda Terrace as part of its overall
system. Today, because they reside in the unincorporated area, Bermuda Terrace
property owners pay a 25% surcharge to the Village for the provision of water. If
annexed into the Village, the surcharge would be eliminated. However, a 9% utility tax
is levied on all Village users of the water system; so, there would be a net savings (16%)
in taxes and surcharges after annexation.
The annual cost for electricity is also analyzed. A property owner living in the
unincorporated County currently pays a 10% utility tax and a 6 % franchise fee for
electrical power that is reflected in the monthly billing. Tequesta levies a 9% utility tax
and a 6% franchise fee. Although this only represents a 1 % difference, the total annual
cost difference in taxes and fees becomes significant. An average $100/month cost for
electricity is used for analysis purposes.
Palm Beach County Rescue serves areas that lie within its MSTU (Municipal Service
Taxing Unit). Of the total 20.0304 County ad valorem millage, 3.0500 mils are assessed
for fire rescue services. The Village of Tequesta has its own Fire Department and is not
part of the MSTU. When an area annexes into Tequesta, it no longer is a part of the
MSTU, and the property owners realize a savings equivalent to the 3.0500 mils of tax.
This savings is reflected in the Bermuda Terrace cost/savings analysis.
Real estate taxes can be written off by property owners against their annual federal
income taxes. It doesn't matter whether or not a property owner lives in the
unincorporated area of Tequesta to realize this savings. Therefore, the tax savings is
shown before annexation and after annexation to reflect the net increase in real estate tax
savings. This analysis assumes a 28% tax bracket. Obviously, the amount of savings
will vary, if the property owner is in a higher or lower tax bracket.
The Sub -Total illustrates the annual cost or savings to a property owner in Bermuda
Terrace both before annexation and after annexation. If the Village and County enter into
Interlocal Agreement and cost share the ENCON Sewer Assessment, the annualized cost
and savings can be factored into the analysis. ENCON is estimating the assessment will
be approximately $7500 per lot. Property owners will have various options to pay off the
sewer assessment. They may opt to pay the entire assessment upfront or pay it off over
time. ENCON will also structure a 20-year, 6 7/8% interest payoff opportunity for
property owners. The annualized payment on the 20-year sewer assessment is estimated
to be approximately $700. The cost/savings analysis assumes that property owners
would opt for the 20- e� ar payment plan If Bermuda Terrace annexed into the Village
pursuant to the Annexation Incentive Program, property owners would realize a
substantial annual savings on the sewer assessment. Property owners would actually save
approximately $300 per year if they annexed into Tequesta under this scenario.
3
Pine `free Drive
A few lots on Pine Tree Drive are already within the Tequesta corporate limits, but 24
lots are still in the unincorporated County. The taxable value of properties vary greatly
on Pine Tree Drive; ranging from $100,000 to $500,000. R ather t han a nalyze a nnual
costs on an "average" taxable value, three (3) separate valued properties are analyzed
($100,000, $250,000, and $500,000). This approach provides a more realistic analysis of
costs and savings to property owners before and after annexation.
If annexed, into the Village, Pine Tree Drive property owners would incur the Tequesta
Stormwater Utility non -ad valorem assessment that they do not currently pay. Property
owners would save a small amount per year for refuse and recycling services provided by
the PBCSWA.
A random analysis of monthly water billings for a one (1) year period indicated that
water usage was a very difficult cost to average because some property irrigation systems
are on the VDT water system, while others are on private wells. It was decided that a
$40/month water bill was a reasonable average expenditure to use for properties of
$100,000 taxable value to calculate the 25% water surcharge while $100/month water bill
was a reasonable average expenditure to use for calculating the Surcharge for properties
of $250,000 - $500,000 taxable value. After annexation, property owners would no
longer pay the 25% surcharge, but they will incur the 9% utility tax charged to Tequesta
residents.
The annual cost for electricity is based on a $100/month bill and is used for properties of
$100,000 taxable value, and a $150/month bill is utilized for properties of $250,000 and
$500,000 taxable value. Property owners would realize the 3.0500 mils savings they
currently pay for PBC Fire Rescue service by annexing into the Village.
The analysis of Pine Tree Drive indicates that property owners of properties with a
taxable value of $100,000 and $250,000 would typically realize an annual savings by
annexing into Tequesta, as part of the Annexation Incentive Program. Property owner;,
of $500,000 properties would most likely realize additional costs if annexed into the
Village. This additional cost would have to be weighed against other benefits of
annexation.
Anchorage Point
Anchorage Point is currently an unincorporated subdivision containing 32 lots. The
taxable value of properties in the Anchorage Point subdivision varies greatly as well.
Values range from $150,000 to over $800,000. Therefore, analysis was performed for
properties valued at $150,000, $500,000 and $800,000 to present as accurate an analysis
as possible.
The Tequcsta Storrnwater Utility ran -ad valorem assessment is assumed to be $111.18
per year if Anchorage Point were annexed. The same minimal savings for refuse and
recycling services after annexation is also reflected in the analysis.
Similar to the Pine Tree Drive analysis, there was no direct relationship, necessarily,
between property value and water usage. Again, this is probably attributable to whether
or not irrigation systems are on the VOT water system or on private wells. Therefore,
reasonable water usage estimates were made for analysis purposes to calculate the 25%
water surcharge cost before annexation, and the 9% utility tax cost after annexation.
Likewise, the electric costs are best estimates established for analysis purposes.
Based on the assumptions and best estimates used in the Anchorage Point analysis,
property owners with taxable value properties in the $150,000 to $500,000 would
probably show an overall annual savings, if annexed into the Village as part of the
Annexation Incentive Program, and if utilizing the long term, low interest plan to pay for
the ENCON Sewer Assessment. Those properties valued at $800,000 or greater would
most likely incur an overall increase in costs if annexed into Tequesta. tD
Jupiter Manor
Jupiter Manor is classified as an unrecorded subdivision in the unincorporated Palm
Beach County lying adjacent and north of Anchorage Point subdivision. Jupiter Manor
only contains 5 lots, but it is crucial to the annexation of Anchorage Point because if not
annexed with Anchorage Point an enclave would still exist. Therefore, Jupiter Manor
and Anchorage Point must be part of one (1) annexation referendum.
The taxable value of building and land in Jupiter Manor vary greatly; from $350,000 to
nearly $1,000,000, It is easier to analyze the annual cost factors before and after
annexation here because there are only five (5) lots. Each lot was analyzed to derive the
cost and savings to property owners regarding the annexation issue. Two (2) of the lots
were in the $450,000 range so they were analyzed as one. Therefore, there are four (4)
cost/savings analysis sheets provided for properties valued at $350,000, $450,000,
$560,000 and $950,000. This allows for a very accurate analysis of the subdivision.
Similar to t he o ther s ubdivisions analyzed, Jupiter M anor p roperty owners, i f a nnexed
into the Village would pay the Tequesta Stormwater Utility non -ad valorem assessment;
however, they would have the same small savings for refuse and recycling s ervices i f
annexed into the village.
Water usage varies greatly from lot to lot in Jupiter Manor. However, the costs reflected
in the analysis for water usage are actual costs taken from past water billings for each of
these properties. Again, the variation in water usage is probably attributable to whether
or not irrigation systems are on the, Village water system or are private wells. The costs
5
for electric uses are strictly a reasonable est-irnate. The analysis shows that all property
owners in Jupiter Manor would probably realize an increase in cost if annexed into the
Village, even as part of the Annexation Incentive Program. Other non -fiscal benefits
would have to be weighed against the additional cost.

COSUBENEFIT ANALYSIS
a
COST/SAVINGS ANALYSIS
The cost/benefit implications to the Village if Bermuda Terrace, Pine 'free Drive,
Anchorage Point and Jupiter Manor were to annex into the Tequesta are analyzed herein.
This analysis is premised on the Village of Tequesta entering into Interiocal Agreement
with the Palm Beach County Board of Commissioners as part of the Annexation
Incentive Program. Per the Interlocal Agreement, the Village and the County would
agree to cost share the ENC-7ON Sewer Assessment with property owners in the annexing
areas; 113 of the cost would be borne by the County, 113 of the cost would be borne by
the Village and 1/3 of the assessment would be paid by the property owner,
It is important to note that the County's objective in exercising the Annexation incentive
Program is to e liminate enclaves and pocket areas; not to merely reduce them in size.
Therefore, Bermuda Terrace and Pine Tree Drive must be annexed as one (1) annexation
area to eliminate the entire existing enclave that they currently create. Likewise,

DATE: 3/15/02
In response to the above referenced, I have the following comments.
Anchoraee Point
There will be no impact to the Utilities Department due to this area already being
serviced by our water system.
The Stormwater Division would receive approximately $3558.00 per year in non ad -
valorem assessment. No upgrade to the stormwater system is anticipated at this time.
Jupiter Manor
There will be no impact to the Utilities Department due to this area already being
serviced by our water system.
The Stormwater Division would receive approximately $556.00 per year in non -ad
valorem assessment. No stormwater improvements are anticipated at this time.
Bermuda Terrace
There will be no impact to the Utilities Department due to this area already being
serviced by our water system.
The Stormwater Division would receive approximately $10,862.00 per year in non -ad
valorem assessment. No stormwater improvements are anticipated at this time.
Pinetree Drive
The Utilities Department recently expanded the water system on a portion of Pinetree
Drive. We currently have a permit to install water main for the remaining area. The costs
for this expansion are already covered in the Phase II contract in the Tequesta Country
Club with Asphalt Consultants Inc.
The Stormwater Division would receive approximately $2669.00 per year in non ad -
valorem assessment. There currently is no stormwater conveyance system in this area.
We would have to do a study on this area to see if it would require stormwater
improvements.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any additional concerns.

Memorandum
TO: Michael Couzzo, Village Manager
FROM: Stephen J. Allison, Chief of Police{
Subject: Annexation Impact on the Police Department
Date: March 15, 2002
I have reviewed the "Preliminary Annexation Report" dated January 2002. The
following is my evaluation of the impact on the police department.
If all four areas listed in this report were annexed, we would need to hire one
dispatcher to cover the peak hours of activity. The current starting salary for a
dispatcher is $27,990.00 plus benefits. (It may be possible to save the cost of
benefits by using part-time dispatchers.)
A benefit of our current work schedule is an increase in the man-hours available
for response to calls for service. I do not believe that the proposed annexation
would require an increase in police personnel based on the current call volume
we have in Tequesta. A worst -case scenario would be the requirement to hire
one officer to work during peak periods of activity. (Starting salary - $33,188.00
plus benefits)

Date: March 14, 2002
Subject: Proposed Annexation Cost to the Public Works Department
In accordance with your request of March 8, 2002 concerning the above referenced, please be
advised of the following:
Bermuda Terrace
The roadways are in excellent condition. The only anticipated Public Works cost would be for
signs replacement in the amount of $800.00.
Pine Tree Drive
Pine Tree Drive is a .35 mile shell rock roadway. The proposed cost for improvements to meet
Village roadway standard is approximately $300,000.
Anchorage Point
The roadways are in excellent condition. New signage cost would be less than $150.
Jupiter Manor
No cost to the Village.

ANNEXATION INCENTIVE
PROGRAM
AN OPTIONAL PROGRAM BY THE
PALM BEACH COUNTY BOARD
OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
PLANNING. ZONING AND BUILDING DEPARTMENT

ANNEXATION INCENTIVE PROGRAM
Introduction
Paint Beach County recognizes that there are many unincorporated developments with
infrastructure deficiencies substantially contiguous to or in some cases, largely surrounded by
municipal boundaries, creating enclaves. pockets or finger areas. These situations hinder the
County s ability to effectively and efficiently provide services and facilities to those areas. In many
instances, these unincorporated enclave and pocket areas would best be served by a neighboring
municipality. Such action would be mutually beneficial to both jurisdictions in terms of service
delivery and compactness of municipal boundaries.
To promote logical annexation, an optional Annexation Incentive Program is created to eacourap
municipalities to annex substandard developments in enclave or pocket areas east of Military Trat1.
The program utilizes the existing MSTU ordinance to fund infrastructure improvements to
substandard developments by a maxim am one-third cost sharing gmernent between the Counter,
iunicipality and landowner. Once infrastum improvements are made• the development is
annexed into a municipality. The County and municipality benefits from this optional program in
the following ways:
• County maintenance cost of grading and clearing substandard roads and
drainage areas is eliminated
• County retrieves two thirds the cost of facility improvements, thus
allowing the MSTU program to expand its funding capabilities
• inadequate facilities are brought up to county standards
• logical annexation is achieved
• program furthers the goals, objectives and policies of the County's
Comprehensive Plan
• program enhances intergovernmental coordination
Although annexations under this program may result in revenue loss to the County such as utility
tax and franchise fees, the County has an opportunity to leverage funds by paying forlust one third
the cost for facility improvements. The program also increases the homeowners ability to pay the
assess;nent fees by decreasing the actual cost of improvements. In many cases, the program will
also improve service efficiency and delivery to areas that lacked adequate services in the past (Le.
isolated enclaves).
This program is not intended for all annexation proposals but is limited to enclave and pocket areas
in severely deficient substandard developments which property is a logical extension of municipal
boundaries and within the municipality's future annexation area.
.To address service delivery problems and compactness issues, many municipalities have identified
potential annexation areas during the planning process and have initiated aggressive annexation
programs to expand municipal boundaries to include enclaves and pockets at some future time.
Many of the residents who reside within these enclave and pocket areas are, however, reluctanc to
agree to annexation because of tax increases associated with municipal incorporation. Conversely,
many of the municipalities may not strongly favor immediate annexation of enclave and pocket

areas as such action may unduly burden the municipality in the provision of service, especially the
rimintenance cost of servicing the enclave and pocket areas. once incorporated.
Floret, the Annexation Incentive Progrtnl is intended to encour.�gt annexation through assessment
reduction for impMvemcnts to unincorporated, substandard developments in enclave or pocket
areas. Priority for these improvements are given to areas located east of Military Trail pursuant to
the County's policy of directing growth into the eastern communities.
Purpose
The purpose of the program is to: a) reduce the assessment for facility improvements for
owners of real property within an enclave or pocket; b) encourage municipal acceptance of the
annexation of an .unincorporated, enclave or pocket area once the existing infrastructure is
brought up to County standards or standards acceptable to the annexing municipality; and c)
eliminate the remaining unincorporated enclaves and pockets.
Eligible Improvements
Under this program, eligible improvements to an enclave or pocket area include, but are not
limited to, both individually and in combination, improvements such as:
• pavement, grassing. landscaping. storm drainage facilities, traffic control devices,
driveways, earthwork and all engineering and administrative expenses in connection with
the project. The term landscaping includes the installation and maintenance, pursuant to
the County's Landscaping Ordinance.
• street highway improvements such as poles, wires. lines, cables, lamps, muter boxes and
all other components of a street lighting system and all engineering and administrative
expenses in connection with the design, implementation and construction as well as the
maintenance expenses, including electric utility company charges for the supply of
elccmc power to said improvements.
• in neighborhoods of special environmental concern with special problems requiring
facilities for water services, sewage collection and disposal, or drainage, the Board of
County Commissioners may provide any or all improvements..
All provisions above are subject to the MSTU Ordinance 91-41..
Participation Requirements
Based on the MSTU ordinance and the Annexation Review Policy provisions, the participation
requirements are set forth below:

or within a municipality when a project was initiated while located in unincorporated
Palm Beach County.

area to bring roadways up to County standards. or to standards acceptable to the
annexing municipality (County Standards art determined by the County Engineer).
- the proposed annexation area shall meet the statutory requirements of Chapter 171 F.S. as
established in the County's Annexation Review Policy.

improvements have been made and approved by the County Engineer, except when a
project was initiated while located ui unincorporated Palm Beach County and the
t municipality consents by ordinance to participation in the Municipal Service Taxing Unit.
• enclave and pocket areas shall be located within a future municipal annexation reserve area
as identified in the municipal land use plan or other official documents.
Cost Incentive Option and Benefits
An assessment incentive option is available to municipalities and landowners who seek to use
this program to improve fatalities in developments which would significantly benefit from
infrastructure improvements. This option is designed to reduce the facility cost assessment to
landowners, but requires municipalides to financially contribute to the cost of improvements
The program is based on up to one-third cost sharing agreement between. the County,
municipality and landowners, with the assessment cost spread over a maximum ten year period
at 10% simple interest charge to landowners. The municipality must pay their portion upront,
unless anoterr paw, gnt plan is agzgd ypQn, payment will be initiated one year after project
t:ompletton per the MST U Qrdinariats..
Subject to BCC approval landowners will have the o tion to include within .the assessment any
impact fees and connection fees which may apply. These fees are in addition to the assessment
for providing water and sewer lines or roadways. Landowners not electing to include these
fees within his/her assessment will be fully responsible for them.
County/Municipal Benefits:
-.County retrieves two thirds of the cost associated with this program over a maximum
ten-year period. Accrued funds will re-enter thi: program and he redistributed to other
eligible projects.
• Nfunicipality will pay just i/- cost of f�jcility improven�e��ts but receive an improved
development when annexed.

Landowners will be assessed only one-third. of the cost for all allowable
improvements under the MSTU Ordinance- This is a substantial assessment cost
reduction when compared to other similar projects in the same program located
outside municipal annexation boundaries.
- County/municipal comprehensive plan goals, objectives and policies will be realized
The number, size, and location of proposals each year will vary, but each proposal shall be
evaluated on the following criteria to determine its funding priority. Whether the substandard
development
-is located in an enclave or pocket.
*has severe facility deficiencies (substandard).

•is included in a municipal annexation plan.
*is located east of Military Trail.
Area Restrictions
Due to bond restrictions, this program shall not apply to properties within the Palm Beach
County Water Utility Department service area
Review
This program will utilize both the Palm Beach County Annexation Review Procedures and the
County's Municipal Service Taxing Unit Program (MSTU) to review and implement policies
contained herein_ The following departments/divisions will also participate in the review
process.
• The County Planning Division and Legal Department will determine if the proposed
project meets the statutory requiiwients of Chapter 171 to enter the program, utilizing the
Anneuadon Review Policy to determine the status of the tcequesc
Tice Fire -Rescue Department will review all proposed projects for the purpose of
recommending that services be either taken over by the annexing municipality or
continued by the County. In addition, the Fire -Rescue Department and Annexing
municipality's fire -rescue service provider will make recommendations regarding fire
flow and hydrant placement when such improvements are required.
• The Parks and Recreation Department will review all proposed projects for the purpose of
recommending whether small designated neighborhood parks (five acres or less) owned
or operated by Palm Beach County shall be conveyed to the municipality upon annexation
or continue to be under the jurisdiction of the County.
• The Library Department will review the proposed annexation for impact on Library
Taring District revenues, service delivery and facilities.
