EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Village of Tequesta initiated the preparation of its first Parks Master Plan in October 2021. The proposed Parks Master Plan, "Our Parks Our Values," is founded on extensive community input, and it will serve as a long-term strategic road map to guide improvements to the Village's parks. There are many benefits to creating aVillage-wide Parks Master Plan. Investing in parks enhances the quality of life for all residents from children to senior residents and strengthens the residents' sense of community. Parks promote physical activity and improve mental wellbeing; they also increase real estate values and reduce air pollutants. The Parks Master Plan is organized in the following five (5) chapters: 1. Introduction 2. Proactive Public Participation Program (4Ps) 3. Conceptual Designs 4. Final Remarks 5. Appendices Chapter 1 — Introduction — Chapter 1 identifies the goals of the Parks Master Plan and evaluates the demographics and socio-economic indicators of the Village population. This chapter includes existing and projected data on population, household type, population age and race, education attainment and housing tenure. In summary, the data shows that Tequesta is a well-educated community with a growing number of families with young children; it has a high rate of homeownership which provides stability for residents and businesses. These demographic trends highlight the importance of parks for the Village's existing and future residents. Chapter 2 — Proactive Public Participation Program (4Ps) — The Parks Master Plan is based on information obtained by public outreach and community engagement. The goal was to listen to residents and prepare a Plan based on their vision, ideas and feedback. This chapter provides a summary of the community outreach efforts which included surveys, interviews, public meetings, information kiosks at Village events, and "open houses" held to explore design ideas. More than 200 participants responded to the Community Survey which elicited input in terms of preference for each park, priorities for park investment and other qualitative information. Chapter 3 — Conceptual Designs — Based on the residents' vision and ideas obtained from the survey, three (3) conceptual design options were prepared for each Remembrance Park and Tequesta Park. Then, multiple "opens houses" were held to elicit the residents' preferences regarding amenities and the design itself. The Project Team processed all the input received from the community and designed a proposed conceptual plan for Remembrance and Tequesta Parks. This chapter includes all the design option graphics and proposed conceptual designs. Chapter 4 — Final Remarks — Our Parks Our Values Master Plan reflects the vision of the Village's residents. The plan will serve as a roadmap for a long-term strategy and funding opportunities to improve and develop the Village parks. This chapter includes the proposed conceptual designs for Remembrance Park and Tequesta Park. It also summarizes recommendations for additional parks and open spaces. The Master Plan will facilitate applications for grants, since it is based on a village - wide community participation process. Most importantly, the Parks Master plan provides information that will allow to budget park initiatives into the Village's capital improvement program. Chapter 5 — Appendices — This chapter includes community surveys and notes that were taken at the public events. Additional photos and documents are also presented in this section.

Parks Master Plan Goals Parks master planning is a comprehensive process that provides guidance and policy direction to local government decision makers. The planning process, which engages residents and stakeholders, provides a foundation for understanding and responding to the vision and needs of the community. The process involves strategically examining the community's existing facilities and assessing future needs. Studies indicate that planning for parks facilities attracts economic development, promotes active lifestyles, and builds healthy communities. Our Parks Our Values Master Plan is based on extensive community feedback and will serve as a roadmap for the long-term development of the Village's parks program. In essence, the purpose of this parks master plan is to develop a comprehensive vision for a park system in the context of its location, natural resources, and vision of the community. This Plan will serve as a framework for the long-term use of the park facilities in a manner that is consistent with the Village's comprehensive plan and policy agenda. The Master Plan will facilitate applications for grants, since it is based on a village - wide community participation process. Most importantly, the Parks Master plan will provide information that will allow to budget park initiatives into the Village's capital improvement program. Our Parks Our Values Master Plan 2 PARKS MASTER PLAN R ORT Agenda Item #13. 1.2. Demographics and Trends This section analyzes demographics and socioeconomic indicators as part of the Parks Master Plan including population, household type, age, race, ethnicity, and educational attainment of the Village of Tequesta residents. Population Table 1 presents historic population trends for the Village of Tequesta. Incorporated in 1957, the Village experienced rapid growth during the sixties and seventies. Large industries arrived to this northern area of Palm Beach County during this time, which resulted in the development of multiple subdivisions to accommodate the growing workforce due to new job opportunities. Throughout the 1980, 1990s, and 2000s, the Village experienced a steady population increase. However, the growth rate was on a steady decline as the Village became almost fully developed. Besides potential development and redevelopment opportunities on the few remaining vacant lots, it is not expected to see much more significant increases to the population from new development. According to the Bureau of Economic and Business Research (BEBR) of the University of Florida, the population of the Village had increased to 6,158 people by 2020. Table 1. Historic Population Trends Population Estimate 1960 1970 1980 1990 2000 2010 2014 2015 2020 Sources: U.S. Census Bureau accessed February 2, 2022; 1980 & 1990 Decennial Census; Bureau of Economicand Business Research (BEBR), University of Florida 2010 U.S. Census Population Projections As indicated in Table 2, the most recent estimate of the permanent population for the Village is 6,186 residents for 2040, according to the Shimberg Center for Housing Studies Clearing, which are based on University of Florida's Bureau of Economic and, Business Research (BEBR) and the center's housing data. Seasonal population presented an actual increase of 325 people between the last decennial censuses. That represented a 54% increase in seasonal residents. That growth coincided with a peak in Condo construction where the majority of seasonal residents own or rent property today. VILLAGE OF TEQUESTA 3 Agenda Item #13. Since then, the Village has essentially reached a built -out status. It has been assumed that seasonal population may continue to grow but at the same pace of the permanent population. Table 2 presents a total population, including seasonal, of 7,128 people for the year 2040. Therefore, both permanent and seasonal populations are expected to remain stable over the next 20 years given the built -out status mentioned above, unless the Village chooses to pursue a new major annexation program, which has been rejected in the recent past by residents of those areas, or attract considerable higher density redevelopment in the future. In conclusion, Table 2 presents actual population growth increase between the last two decennial censuses. Since then, the Village has experienced very little population growth, which is estimated to continue, as shown in the projected population 2015-2040. A factor that has certainly contributed to the Village's slowing growth rate is the lack of available land for new development. Future estimated population growth could be accommodated in the remaining vacant land, potential annexation of unincorporated enclaves scattered throughout the Village, or potential redevelopment of existing areas.

This section examines the socioeconomic characteristics of the population. The following analysis is based on the American Community Survey (ACS) of the U.S. Census Bureau, which includes estimates based on a sample of households over a 9-year period. The data provided by the ACS allows for an in-depth analysis of socioeconomic variables and trends. The following tables reflect the most recent data provided by the ACS and are organized in columns, representing a 9-year period from 2010 to 2019.

Table 3 presents the number of households and persons per household according to the American Community Survey (ACS) from the U.S. Census Bureau. A household is defined as the person or persons occupying a dwelling unit. As the average household size decreases, the number of households or required dwelling units increases relative to the population. Due to several factors, average household size is decreasing throughout the United States. These factors include families having fewer children and delaying the birth of children; young adults no longer living with parents but moving out on their own, and older persons living longer independently and not returning to their children in their later years. Combined, these factors have led to a decrease in the average household size. Conversely, the average household size in the Village of Tequesta shows a slight decrease from 2.27 to 2.26 between 2010 and 2019, as indicated in Table 3. Table 3.

Population Age Table 4 shows the numerical and percentage breakdown of the Village's population by age in 2010 and 2019 according to the American Community Survey (ACS) fromthe U.S. Census Bureau. The 45-54-year-old age group is the largest in both years (16.7% and 15.2%). In both 2010 and 2019, the second largest age group was 65-74-year-olds. However, the population in this age group decreased between 2010 and 2019, from 15.5% to 14.5%. Overall, Tequesta's population 65 and over has decreased, and the most growth has been in the 45 to 59-year age groups. Table 4 also indicates that the number of children under 5 years old increased from 1.9% to 2.9%. Table 4.

Housing Tenure Table 8 indicates that between 2010 in 2019, Tequesta saw a slight shift in the number of owner -occupied and renter -occupied units. Owner -occupied units increased by 3.9 percent, while renter -occupied units decreased by 3.9 percent during that time. By 2019, 86.3 percent of all occupied housing units in Tequesta were owner -occupied; in contrast, 13.7 percent were occupied by renters. The average number of persons per household, both owner- and renter -occupied, is slightly over two (2.29 and 2.09, respectively) in Tequesta. This is consistent with the larger concentration of retirees and "empty nesters" in Tequesta. Table 8.

Remembrance Park Currently, Remembrance Park is a vacant site. The subject site was once a stop for Henry Flagler's railroad to Key West. In 1966, Betty Bush, of "The Beacon", purchased the two -level dark red and white building (train depot) and moved it to her property off Seabrook Road. In 1997, Ms. Bush passed away, and her family occupied the home for a few years before having a caretaker live there. In 2005, Mayor Jim Humpage reported to the Village Council that the property located on Seabrook Road was going to be sold, and the uncertainty of thetrain station situated on the site. During the April 2010 Village Council Meeting, Mr. Humpage informed the public of the price of the Seabrook Road property, and in December 2010, the Village of Tequesta purchased the property with the intention to demolish the structures and have a park. The Loxahatchee Guild then expressed interest in preserving the depot and relocating it to Jupiter. On April 15, 2012, the Loxahatchee Guild, Florida East Coast Railway Society, Town of Jupiter and Village of Tequesta representatives gathered in Sawfish Bay Park to welcome the depot to its new location, where the building will be preserved. This subject Master Plan included a number of community outreach events to design and plan Remembrance Park.

COMMUNITY PARKS A community park is a "ride to" park located near major streets or arterials. It is designed to serve community residents within a radius of up to three miles. Multi -modal access to community parks is strongly encouraged and can be enhanced with bike paths and pedestrian walkways. Typical facilities found in community parks are designed to serve the entire family and include both passive and active recreation opportunities such as playgrounds, recreation buildings, sports fields, multipurpose courts, picnic areas, open play areas, swimming pools, and natural trails. Adequate off- street parking is also required in a community park. Just as a neighborhood park fulfills the recreation needs of a neighborhood, a community park is designed to meet the recreation needs of an entire community.

Overview and Summary The Parks Master Plan embraced Tequesta's strong sense of community by facilitating a public outreach and participation program. The process was designed to be transparent, equitable and engage the widest range of residents to receive the community ideas and feedback. The proactive public participation program included a number of open, dynamic and inclusive community events that are described in this section. The goal was to have a meaningful public discussion about the Village of Tequesta parks and to propose a feasible Parks Master Plan that is based on the community vision and provides a long-term road map. The following is a list of the different initiatives that comprised the community input process from October 2021 to April 2022: • Community Survey (249 total responses; 232 online; 17 paper copies) • 20 interviews with residents • 4 Kiosks at Village Events • 7 Design Open Houses • 5 Public Meetings • Conceptual Drawings Exhibit and Surveys at Village Hall Lobby r., 36 PARKS MASTER PLAN REPORT AgencWelollowing able presents a summary of all the community events part of the outreach initiative: 1.

Community Survey The Project Team prepared a Community Survey with thirty-six (36) questions. The survey was available from October 12, 2021 to December 31, 2021, and it was advertised on the Village's website and all social media platforms. The kiosks at the different Village events were venues where the survey was provided to residents. The Project Team designed a poster with a QR Code that residents could scan with their phones to respond to the Community Survey questions. Survey questions were intended to gather feedback from residents regarding Village parks. The survey initiative received 249 total responses (232 online and 17 paper copies). Highlights of the survey results and summaries of the park -specific public feedback are included in this section. Summary of Results Respondents were asked to identify if they reside within the Village of Tequesta to better understand from where the feedback was generating. The vast majority of the respondents were Village of Tequesta residents with a small percentage from outside the Village jurisdiction. Generally, park use is influenced by age of the community. To characterize the age demographics of survey responses, residents were asked to identify their age group. Approximately half the respondents were in the 35-64 years old bracket, followed by the 65-74 age bracket. The majority of the survey participants have children in their household (more than 50%). When asked about the ages of the children in the household, more than 40 percent of the survey participants shared that they have children in the 6-10 years old bracket, closely followed by 2-5 years old bracket. To better understand the residents' preferences and use of the Village's parks, respondents were asked to choose from a list their preferred Village parks. The Residents' most favored park in the Village is Constitution Park, followed by Coral Cove Park and Tequesta Park. A large number of survey participants feel that the Village parks are within walking/biking distance from their homes. Less than 20 percent do not feel there is adequate parks in their close vicinity. About 40 percent of survey participants prefer to walk to visit a park, while more than 30 percent prefer to drive, and more than 20 percent prefer to visit via bicycle. The desire for park amenities was expressed in response to the question "What type of amenities are most important to you?" The residents chose from a list of options ranging from playgrounds to natural trails, walkways, and community gardens. Survey responses indicate a desire for park investment. When asked about the investment priorities, the responses revealed a similar importance placed on all options; however, the maintenance of the existing parks was emphasized.

CONCEPTUAL DESIGNS The public outreach and community engagement processes were at the heart of this Parks Master Plan. The Project Team designed three conceptual plans for each Remembrance Park and Tequesta Park based on the community survey, interviews and input from residents received at multiple open houses and kiosk events. Once the Project Team designed the conceptual plans, it was paramount to present them to the community and receive their comments and feedback. On the evenings of March 8 and 9, 2022, the Project Team conducted open houses to introduce the conceptual designs for both Remembrance Park and Tequesta Park at the Village Hall. The community was invited to contribute ideas and express their preferences regarding the different options and amenities. Also, at the Residents' Academy event on March 9, 2022, Mr. Jeremy Allen, Tequesta Village Manager, presented the design concepts to a group of residents. At these open houses, the residents had the opportunity to place sticker dots on amenities they favored or opposed. Participants were provided three (3) colors of sticker dots: Green (In favor), Red (Not in favor), Yellow (Not sure). From March 10, 2022 to March 28, 2022 the proposed conceptual plans were exhibited in the Village Hall lobby along with surveys, so residents could provide their preferences. A drop box to collect the surveys was also placed in the lobby. 68 PARKS MASTER PLAN R ORT Agenda Item #130 71 ml�-M 4,1 3.1 Remembrance Park CONCEPTUAL DESIGN OPTIONS This section presents the three (3) Conceptual Plans designed for Remembrance Park based on the community participation and input.

The following suggestions and recommendations were provided by the Village's residents: Linear Park Linear parks are elongated open space corridors which often follow the alignment of residential or commercial roads, and in some instances, they are built on land along a railroad right-of-way. The term "linear park" reflects the potential that it may also include other recreation or natural features and amenities desired by the community. The size and design of a linear park varies and depends on location and function but usually provides continued multi -use trails, seating, and recreation uses. The goal of the Linear Park located along Old Dixie Highway is to address the community specific needs and offer safety and well-being by providing a comfortable and accessible path for people of all ages and abilities. This master plan was prepared to serve as a guideline for the community's desired improvements for the Village's Linear Park including the following recommendations: • Add shade trees along the walkway • Include hedges toward Old Dixie Hwy to provide a landscape buffer for safety reasons • Improve landscaping to enhance the aesthetics of the corridor • Provide trash receptacles and seating benches • Install a cross walk on the corner of Village Boulevard to promote connectivity with Tequesta Park • Reach out to Palm Beach County to recommend a median with trees on Old Dixie Hwy. The above graphic was prepared for the Commercial Corridor Charrette conducted by the Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council (TCRPQ. Point Drive Open Space (Banyan Tree) This Banyan tree site is surrounded by residential homes, and it has been embraced by the community because of its character and beauty. The recommendations are as follows: • Add a trash receptacle • Include an additional seating bench (currently there is only one seating bench) • Preserve this open space VILLAGE OF TEQUESTA 83 Agenda Item #13. Jupiter Lighthouse Outstanding Area (JLONA) Even though this land is owned and maintained by the Federal Government; the Village's residents provided the following recommendations to improve this site: • Add trash receptacles and additional trail signages • Plant native trees toward US Hwy 1 • Provide a pedestrian and bicycle access from US Highway 1 to facilitate connectivity and access for residents Coral Cove Park This Park has been within the boundaries of the Village of Tequesta since 1985; however, it is owned and maintained by Palm Beach County. The recommendations are as follows: • Improve beach area by a Restoration Program • Add a low speed zone and paid parking on Beach Road • Include ADA access to the beach Additional Recommendations 1. Prepare a Multi -Use Trail System Plan. This plan will offer an interconnected system of bike and pedestrian trails that will facilitate the access to parks and open spaces. The plan will seek to provide multi -use experiences for a wide range of users and healthy recreation opportunities along the way. The Multi -Use Trail System will be a complement to the Parks Master Plan and play a key role in providing connections between the Village's parks and open spaces. The goal is to promote walking and biking, rather than driving, to the parks by utilizing sidewalks and bike and pedestrian trails. This initiative will focus on the connections between the neighborhoods and the natural destinations to promote physical and mental health benefits for the community. 2. Implement the Objectives and Policies included in the Recreation and Open Space Element of Comprehensive Plan presented in Chapter 1 of this Report. 4.2. Next Steps Our Parks Our Values Master Plan provides the vision of the residents, and it will serve as a road map for a long-term strategy and funding to improve and develop the Village of Tequesta Parks. The subject document will facilitate application for grants, since it is based on a village -wide community participation process and includes in-depth information. Most importantly, this Parks Master Plan will allow the Village to allocate specific amounts into each year's capital improvement budget. The Village Manager and the Village Council will be able to determine and break into phases the desired improvements for each park. Once the Parks Master Plan is adopted by the Village Council, the next step for Remembrance Park and Tequesta Park is to proceed with final design drawings to be prepared by landscape architects and engineers based on technical surveys. The final design documents will provide specifications and an estimated cost of construction. With regard to other parks and open spaces owned or maintained by the Village, the recommendation section includes improvements suggested by the community. The next step is to assess the priorities in terms of budgeting and design. With regard to JLONA and Coral Cove Park, the Village will provide the community recommendations to each agency. dt 000 Ul OU0 84 PARKS MASTER PLAN R ORT r — � P _' Jk 37 ik4 , , ems' ++ I / m , 'rf { r , f ... d;.a f'�1,..
