In publishing this information, Property Appraiser, Eddie Creamer, stated "It is very important that government be transparent at all levels. There is no reason that we, in public service, should not be held to the same normal financial standards and accountability as a private sector business. Bank  accounts should be reconciled monthly and financial statements should be prepared and reviewed as well. This information should then be made available to the public in a clear, consistent, and transparent manner. A better informed taxpayer can ask more informed questions and hold those in public service to the high standards we took the oath to maintain and defend".

Eddie Creamer, St. Johns County Property Appraiser, will now publish monthly financial statements to the SJCPA website. The monthly financial statements are a detail of revenues from taxing authorities and expenses of the office compared to the budget as approved by the Florida Department of Revenue. The detailed budget may also be viewed here.

In publishing this information, Property Appraiser, Eddie Creamer, stated "It is very important that government be transparent at all levels. There is no reason that we, in public service, should not be held to the same normal financial standards and accountability as a private sector business. Bank  accounts should be reconciled monthly and financial statements should be prepared and reviewed as well. This information should then be made available to the public in a clear, consistent, and transparent manner. A better informed taxpayer can ask more informed questions and hold those in public service to the high standards we took the oath to maintain and defend".

Today, representatives from the Orange County Property Appraiser's Office met with our Drone Operations Team to learn more about the many advantages of our drone program.
