If your answers to the above are mostly NO, then you need to let the Town Council know that you're

NAPB will deliver to it PETER ELWELL, Town Manager, to be forwarded to our Town Council and Mayor.
If taking this quiz online, fax it to Peter Elwell (838-5411) or email it to him at pelwell@townofpalmbeach.com
BEFORE Wednesday, March 13, so that it arrives in advance of the meeting on the 14th.
SPEAK UP NOW or say goodbye to the Palm Beach we love. When demolition begins it will be too late.
Don't let Palm Beach become crowded and homogenized, like so much of Florida, victim to developers.
