Letter to 'Visitor' about 1956 Parade of Homes from NPB, Inc.IFIVIVIN INC. EXECUTIVE OFFICE: 1201 HARVEY BUILDING W. PALM BEACH, FLORIDA * TEmple 3-6994 Dear Visitor: Welcome to the "1956 PARADE OF HOMES" sponsored by the Home Builders Association of Palm Beach County. We are honored that the Association has chosen the Village of North Palm Beach as the setting for this magnificent achievement. The Village of North Palm Beach was incorporated by a Special Act of the Florida Legislature on August 13, 1956. The Village Hall and Administration building is now under construction and will be completed about December 1, 1956. North Palm Beach Utilities.Ince has completed con- struction of the new water treatment and sewage disposal plants that will serve the Village, and the developers are proceeding rapidly with the improvement work on the first 500 homesites. A complete storm drainage system ha -s been installed, sewer, water and gas lines are being laid, and street paving is underway. A site for a primary school has been donated by the de- velopers to the School Board. Necessary funds will be allocated by the Board so that this school will be built by the fall term of 1957. The nearest school at present is about a mile from the Village in nearby Lake Park, and school bus service will be made available. The North Palm Beach Country Club will reopen for the season as a semi -private course. A well known golf course architect has been retained to redesign and rebuild the course, and this work will be started during the coming year. Membership on a preferred basis will be offered Village residents. Builders now participating in the "PARADE OF HOMES" can furnish you with homes on sites in the Village. They will shortly be joined by other nationally known builders who are planning ex- tensive construction programs* The developers will offer a limited number of building sites for sale to individuals who desire to plan their own homes* They will also develop water front sites which will be offered for public sale. Information may be obtained at the Village Hall after December 1, 1956 or by calling VI 4-34110 NORTH PALM BEACHINCe
