The Research and Planning Unit is continually looking for ways to measure performance, asking questions: are we providing an efficient, cost effective and timely criminal justice system in the court; and are we reducing crime in the county on a permanent basis? Similarly, the state is asking the same question on a variety of topics important to Florida and Palm Beach County. We encourage you to visit Florida Performs (Public Safety) [External Link] to learn more about various performance indicators already in use in the state. Over the coming months, the Research and Planning will publish similar measures for Palm Beach County where data are available.
