Where your tax dollars go

Following the passing of Amendment 1 to reduce property taxes, Florida's Chief Financial Officer, Alex Sink, has launched a website to help educate residents about local government finances and how our money is spent.

"Your Local Government Dollars and Cents" is Sink's effort to get people more engaged in local government spending. She says with governments actively cutting their budgets, it's essential for Floridians to make it clear what their priorities are for their communities.

You'll have access to information about local government spending, including amounts spent on schools, tranportation, public safety and more. Remember, it's YOUR money that's being spent.
