2024 ANNUAL REPORT
SAFETY
Prepare for the introduction of high-speed rail through the Town of Jupiter by investigating and advocating for appropriate safety measures . The Town has worked closely with Brightline to coordinate the installation of safety fencing along nearly a mile of train tracks . Members of the Town Council continue to lobby Brightline for increased safety measures surrounding this fencing .
The Town made its initial application to the Federal Rail Administration ( FRA ) to establish quiet zones throughout Jupiter . The FRA requested changes at some intersections , and the Town and Palm Beach County have completed all of the items within their purview . Brightline is working to complete the remaining six items , with work expected to begin in early 2025 . Once complete , the Town will continue its application for the quiet zone designation .
Develop a conceptual plan for a public safety training facility . A working group consisting of members of the Jupiter Police Department and Jupiter Fire Rescue Department has been established . The group is currently gathering and analysing training data for both departments and will present the results of this analysis to the town council in early 2026 .
