County Hosting Public Input Budget Forums
County Services Planning Survey Available Online Monday
For immediate release: Date: January 9, 2008
Contact: Public Affairs, 561-355-2754
The Palm Beach County Board of County Commissioners, administrators and staff are offering five informational community budget forums throughout the county to help residents better understand how County tax dollars are collected and spent.
There will be a presentation by County staff and an open question-and-answer period. County officials are especially interested in knowing what programs and services residents feel are most important to them.
Attendees will be asked to fill out a survey on how they think County tax dollars should be spent. Completed surveys may be submitted at the forum or returned by mail.
The survey can also be completed online. The Web site also has information on current and past years’ budgets and official documentation.
