Dan Frank, JHS Principal, 754 Tequesta, noted that many Tequesta students were serviced by Palm Beach County schools and extended an invitation to all in attendance to visit the site. He explained the schools intentions in the community and asked that Tequesta be involved in the partnership. Council Member D'Ambra responded that Council had approved specific funding and that Tequesta was a small municipality.

COMMUNICATIONS FROM COUNCIL Vice Mayor Arena commented on the All Aboard Florida issue and the time and importance that Mayor Brennan had placed on the issue. Council Member Paterno pointed out the change in the Village fund balance and that it had been negative during the past five years. He suggested a modification was necessary along with a closer analysis of every funding decision. Council Member Paterno felt the hurricane restricted funds should be evaluated in order to stabilize the upcoming budget and added that no reinvesting was being completed regarding capital improvements or in the community at present. Mayor Brennan recalled the time period prior to the recent recession when Village reserves were put aside for economic issues. She pointed out that the recovery had not accelerated at a rate positive enough to refund the reserves, and that Tequesta had been operating extremely close. Council Member D'Ambra voiced his opinion that with the current economic condition it was not a sensible time to increase taxes in the Village. He reported additional revenues that had been obtained and helpful with assisting the Village during tough times. Council Member D'Ambra voiced that there was no momentous change in revenue in the near future and suggested Council holds off on any changes. Council Member Paterno felt more information was needed to obtain an accurate analysis.

Council Member D'Ambra explained the type of truck traffic mattered and felt Council could discuss the item further for an alternative solution. Council Member D'Ambra questioned a business sponsored dine around event, the Water plant testing of copper levels notification, which he believed Council was unaware of, and the Waterway Road paving issue he felt Council should address.
