Pinellas County, Florida E-1 FY19 Proposed Budget


Pinellas County

Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller

Description:

Pursuant to Article V, Revision 7, the Clerk of the Circuit Court has three distinct functions – recording legal

documents such as real estate transfers, performing statutorily-mandated support for the court system and the legal community, and providing services to the Board of County Commissioners. The Clerk serves as Accountant and Clerk to the Board of County Commissioners, Custodian of County funds, Ex-Officio County Auditor, and Clerk of the Water and Navigation Control Authority. Additionally, the Clerk provides printing services and mail services to County departments. The Clerk's varied court responsibilities are not reflected in the County budget, as they are a separate state budget responsibility, supported by fees. The recording function is also supported by fees, and if the revenues exceed expenditures the County receives excess fees from the Clerk at fiscal year end.

For additional information, please visit http://www.pinellasclerk.org

Analysis:

The Clerk of the Circuit Court's FY19 Budget reflects an increase of $713,350 or 6.0% as compared with the FY18 Revised Budget. This incorporates partial funding of decision packages requested by the Clerk in the amount of $230,000 to fund 3.0 FTE. Personal Services increased by $649,400 or 6.1% due to aforementioned decision packages in the amount of $130,000 for two Finance Operations Technicians in the Finance Division

and $100,000 for one Justice Business Analyst to support the Clerk Technology – Court and Operational

Services Program. The remainder of the Personal Services increase is in line with the countywide inflationary increases. Operating Expenditures and Capital Outlay reflect a slight increase of $63,950.

Additionally, the Board of County Commissioners approved $100,000 contingent upon the results of Florida Amendment 1, Homestead Exemption Increase Amendment. If voters statewide do not approve Florida Amendment 1 this November, a budget amendment will allocate an additional $100,000 to the Clerk's budget. This funding will support a Justice Consolidated Case Management System Specialist Developer position in

Clerk Technology – Court and Operational Services Program, resulting in an additional 1.0 FTE.
