Public Records
A Public Policy of Open Government
The Florida Constitution and Florida Statutes §119 and §286 safeguard every Floridian’s right to access government meetings and public records. Everyone has the right to obtain public records unless the Legislature has allowed an exemption, or the records are otherwise confidential. Residents and media can easily request public records from Pinellas County Government. Those requesting records are responsible for any cost of providing the documentation, which includes staff time, cost of copies and other costs that are associated with the request.
