Local government debt analyzed in new LeRoy Collins Institute report

How much do you know about your local city or county’s debt obligations? The LeRoy Collins Institute recently released its latest report, “Benchmarking Debt Obligations in Florida Cities and Counties,” to help Floridians stay informed on local government spending.

Although most Florida cities and counties have relatively stable and healthy debt levels, the variation between one government’s debt to the next has significantly increased in recent years. Our report provides a benchmark measure to which citizens and government officials can compare and see how their city or county measures up to other Florida locations.
