About:
Palm Beach is a barrier island sixteen miles long located 65 miles north of Miami. To the east is the Atlantic Ocean and to the west is the Intracoastal Waterway, which separates Palm Beach from the cities of West Palm Beach and Lake Worth. The year-round population is 10,000 and the seasonal population is about 30,000. Palm Beach is the land area closest to the Gulf Stream which produces lush gardens, palm lined beaches, and an outstanding marine environment. The Town of Palm Beach provides a full range of municipal services including Police and Fire-Rescue protection, sanitation, recreation, street and road maintenance, planning, zoning and building and general administrative services. The Town employs approximately 434 full and part time employees.
Palm Beach is a fully developed community, world-renowned for its extraordinary beauty, quality of life and small-town character. As we envision our future ten years from now, we see Palm Beach remaining true to the inspired legacy of our founders, a Mediterranean-style mecca of stunning architecture and natural beauty, acclaimed shopping, restaurants and hotels, a cosmopolitan culture, and an involved citizenry committed to civic and philanthropic causes and excellence in Town government. Our vision for the next decade and beyond consists of continuing to focus on our top-notch public safety departments of Police and Fire-Rescue; sustaining a quality of life by protecting existing open spaces and managing redevelopment both in residential and commercial districts; improving emergency management measures in preparation for a possible disaster; continuing to improve the island's infrastructure by renourishing its beaches, improving storm drainage and ensuring the integrity of our roads; and maintaining our excellent financial health.
