Elected officials
As named in the summary book: County Manager Amy Patterson. The General Fund description names the constitutional officer sub-funds — Clerk of Courts, Sheriff, Property Appraiser, Tax Collector, and Supervisor of Elections — but the extract does not give their officeholders' names, so only the roles are listed here.
Sources & notes
- Only source used: Collier County, Fiscal Year 2027 Fund Budget Summary, General Fund (0001). Collier County FY2027 adopted budget summary by fund.
- Check: total appropriations equal total funding at $759,902,500 as printed; reserves arithmetic exact ($18,015,600 + $61,303,000 + $3,750,000 − $1,038,200 = $82,030,400).
- What is not claimed: no all-funds FY2027 total is shown, and the FY2025-26 approximately $2.2 billion all-funds figure reported elsewhere is not used because it is not in this document.
- Jurisdiction palette: no verified Florida jurisdiction palette was on file, so this page uses the neutral Hometown Numbers dark-glass theme rather than a jurisdiction color.
