Ensuring Access to Information

The Clerk of the Circuit Court & Comptroller’s office is committed to ensuring transparency and accountability in government. Because we understand that the tax dollars we spend are your dollars, we work diligently to minimize expense and maximize efficiency.

Budget

The Florida Constitution established the Clerk of the Circuit Court & Comptroller as a public trustee, independently elected to safeguard public funds and public records. Since the Clerk is responsible for Palm Beach County finances and Official Records as well as all court records of the 15th Judicial Circuit, portions of the Clerk’s budget have different revenue sources, different expenditure rules and different approval authorities.

Our budget includes personnel and operating costs from four funding sources: Palm Beach County Board of County Commissioners, Official Records Recording fees, State of Florida funding and Court Technology fees.
