The Palm Beach County Board of County Commissioners, administrators and staff are continuing their series of informational community budget forums this week with sessions in Delray Beach, Royal Palm Beach and West Palm Beach.

Citizens are encouraged to attend to gain a better understanding of 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.

Residents are being asked to fill out a written survey on how they think County tax dollars should be spent. Surveys may completed in person at the forum or online.
