Ahead of adopting a budget for next fiscal year, the St. Johns County Commission will host a series of public workshops. The workshops have always been open to the public, but this is the first year the meetings will be broadcast live online.
County Administrator Joy Andrews says it’s part of an effort to “pull back the curtain” on St. Johns County.

Last year, the St. Johns County Commission unanimously approved a $1.6 billion budget to fund everything from salaries for the county’s staff to public safety and parks and recreation. The workshops held ahead of approving that budget weren’t broadcast live or recorded, and legally they don’t have to be.
The 28 workshops for the 2024-25 budget will start May 10 and run until May 20. Multiple workshops will be scheduled per day.
Each workshop will be held at the St. Johns County Administration Building, at 500 San Sebastian View in St. Augustine, in a conference room. Additional seating will be available in the county auditorium, where the workshop will be broadcast live.

The workshops will be available to stream live on the county’s website and recordings will be available to view in the days after each workshop.
