NCNC Celebrates Ten Years!

---

We had the privilege of attending the Annual Meeting of the North County Neighborhood Coalition on Thursday, March 5, 2020. This was the ten year anniversary of the formation of the coalition, which now includes 22 Communities and Associations, 45,000 Residents and 30,000 Voters in northern Palm Beach County. Sal Faso, President, kicked off the meeting and cited elements of their mission “to improve the quality-of-life for residents of North Palm Beach County.” One key element is to increase voter participation, and while Palm Beach County had a 61% turnout at the last election, NCNC Communities totaled 74%!

All members of the Palm Beach Gardens City Council were present at the event, as were other elected and municipality/county officials.

Speaking at the event were three highly accomplished women: Teresa Urquhart, CEO of Palm Beach Gardens Medical Center who described new robotics advances in operations; Kelly Smallridge, CEO of Palm Beach County Business Development Board – who spoke on the efforts to Recruit, Retain and Expand industry in Palm Beach County including activites in north county in the areas of Aerospace, Life Science and Corporate HQ; and Verdenia Baker – County Administrator for Palm Beach County, who summarized the current actions being taken to expand Workforce/Affordable Housing which is sorely needed in the County.

Congratulations to Sal Faso and the rest of the NCNC Board on their success and impact on Northern Palm Beach County!
