Con- sequently, it has been the Town's policy to provide a variety of community-serving facilities and activities along its beachfront, and a limited number and scope of neighborhood parks and facilities. The Town of Palm Beach has been able to provide sufficient recreation acreage to meet or exceed its recreation standard of six acres per one thousand population for its peak seasonal population through a long and consistent dedication to recreation planning, and the private sector's support through provision of cultural facilities. EXISTING AND FUTURE RECREATION NEEDS The development of a cohesive recreation plan for the Town must reflect those factors which affect the optimum size, type and distribution of recreation facilities. Such factors include the size, age and distribution of the existing and future population, and the location and condition of existing facilities, as well as the supporting role which the private sector plays in the recreation network. The Town's planning standard is six acres of recreation per thousand population. The Town currently has 104.67 acres of park land and open space including the Kreusler Park(Palm Beach County)and Lake Worth Casino and Beach Complex (City of Lake Worth) both of which have always been counted towards the Town's recreation Level of Service (LOS). In addition, the Town has counted 50% of the acreage of the cultural and school facilities within the Town which represents an additional 5.585.43 acres resulting in a total of 110.25110.10 acres of park land and open space. Based on the corrected 2010 U.S. Census population figure for the Town of 8,161 residents,the Town is expected to have a minimum of 48.97 acres of recreation land. Therefore,the Town is exceeding the minimum required LOS for recreation. The Town will continue to meet the LOS for recreation through the year 2027.

Town residents place great emphasis on private golf courses,clubs,and cultural enrichment. To a significant extent,these activities add to the Town's public recreational facilities by providing for more personalized, service- oriented, recreation.
