The Village of Tequesta, "V.O.T.", was incorporated in 1957. At that time,
there were three Police Officers patrolling the streets of Tequesta. Today,
there are close to 30 full-time and part-time officers and support staff. In
1957, there were just a few hundred residents. Now our village has grown to
over 5000 residents! This tremendous growth can be attributed to several
things, including the numerous recreational and cultural amenities found in
Tequesta.
Through the years, one thing has remained true, and that is the PRIDE
shared by the residents of Tequesta. Residents, young and old, have always
been proud to say that they were or are residents of the Village of Tequesta.
And to show that pride, we have developed a specially designed decal to be
displayed on your vehicle. The decal serves many functions aside from the
obvious, which is to show your pride as a resident of Tequesta. The
prominently displayed letters on the decal, V.O.T., can also be used to assist
the Tequesta Police Department in providing the best service possible by
helping them identify residents of Tequesta.
With all of the chaos and turmoil in the world today, even our quiet little
Village can be affected. But the one constant shared by all residents of the
Village of Tequesta is the sense of PRIDE. This decal is just one small way
to show that PRIDE.
