Councilman Manuel gave an update on the recent Palm Beach County League of Cities meeting.

in the Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council.
VILLAGE MANAGER MATTERS /REPORTS
Mr. Kelly discussed replacement of the pool heater at the Country Club. Mr. Kelly reported the
sole bid received for a new 1.8 million BTU heater came in above the budgeted cost. Mr. Kelly
compared projected revenues to the cost to operate the pool during the winter (November — March)
and requested Council guidance on whether to continue heating the pool during the winter
months while operating at a loss. Council consensus was that the pool is a Country Club amenity,
which should be kept open year round. During discussion, various suggestions were made for
possible efficiencies and it was requested that staff investigate the use of natural gas instead of
propane, prior to purchasing the new heater.
Mr. Kelly congratulated the Finance Department on receiving the Government Finance Officers
Association (GFOA) Certificate of Achievement Award for a proficient rating in all categories.
