Due to the volume, complexity and size of many of the financial reports our office prepares, it is impossible for our website to house all of them. Issues ranging from ADA compliance requirements to limited staffing prohibit the Clerk’s Office from posting all of our reports on this website. Our office believes strongly in transparency and providing the public with information pertaining to the finances of the Board of County Commissioners. Certain reports are statutorily required to be provided on our website and links are provided below. The following types of reports are prepared and/or maintained by our office. If the report or link to the report is not provided, you may contact our Public Records Liaison at 850-926-0300 or receptionist@wakullaclerk.com to request copies of these reports.
BOCC Budget – https://www.mywakulla.com/departments/finance_and_budget/index.php
The budget serves as the key tool for setting operational and capital project spending priorities and is legally enacted each fiscal year. Preparation of the proposed budget for direct spending by the BOCC is the responsibility of the County Administrator. After preparation, the proposed budget is then presented to the citizens and the BOCC at two public hearings in September. Final adjustments to the proposed budget may be made by a majority of the BOCC at these hearings. These hearings are also used to set the annual property tax millage rate. All budgets are required to be balanced, with all expenditures supported by identified funding sources.
Annual Financial Statements –https://flauditor.gov/pages/county_efile%20pages/wakulla.htm
Annual financial statements are prepared for a variety of purposes. They are legally required. They assist Administration in monitoring annual expenditures, multi-year projects and provide a “status” report for the financial condition of the County.

The purpose of this audit and its scope of work is described within the report.
