Boynton Beach Public Records Portal

The City of Boynton Beach provides an online records request system through a GovQA portal. The City Clerk's Office at 100 E Ocean Ave is the designated custodian of all public records for the city. Public records include documents, papers, maps, photos, recordings, and data held by any city department. You can submit a request online, call the office, or go in person to City Hall. The online portal lets you track your request and get alerts when files are ready.

The Boynton Beach public records page has links to submit and track your records request.

The city also keeps a searchable archive of past requests, so you can check if the records you need have been released before.

Fees apply for copies and labor. Florida Statutes Chapter 119 sets the rules for what agencies can charge. If your request takes more than 30 minutes of staff time, the city can bill for that work. Be as clear as you can when you fill out the form. Date ranges, names, and key words all help the staff find the right files fast. The City Clerk's phone is 561-742-6060 and the email is cityclerk@bbfl.us.

Search Boynton Beach Residents

Voter data is one of the quickest ways to look up a Boynton Beach resident. The Florida Division of Elections says voter info is public. Each record shows the voter's name, home address, date of birth, and party. Social Security numbers and license numbers are kept out. You can get this data from the Palm Beach County Supervisor of Elections or the state office. If the person you are looking for is registered to vote, this is a strong starting point.

Property records work well too. The Palm Beach County Property Appraiser has a free search tool. You can look up anyone by name and see what property they own in the county. The results give the owner's name, mailing address, assessed value, and exemption status. A Homestead exemption is a good sign that the address is the person's main home. These records go back many years. No sign-up is needed.

The Palm Beach County Clerk of Courts handles court files for the 15th Judicial Circuit. You can search by name for civil, criminal, family, and probate cases filed in the county. The Florida CCIS pulls data from all 67 Florida counties, so if a Boynton Beach resident has a case in another county, you can find it there too. Basic searches on both tools are free.

Note: The CCIS system is run by the Florida Clerks and may require a free account for some search features.

Boynton Beach Police Records Search

The Boynton Beach Police Department keeps its own records and also uses the city's GovQA portal for online requests. You can get offense reports, arrest records, and traffic crash reports.

Having the case number or date of the event ready will help the records staff find your files faster.

Some records are not public. Active criminal investigations are exempt from release under Florida law. Victim and witness info may also be taken out to follow state rules.

Boynton Beach and Public Records Law

Chapter 119 of the Florida Statutes says everyone has the right to inspect and copy public records. This law applies to the City of Boynton Beach and every other government office in the state. You do not need to give your name. You do not need to say why you want the records. The Boynton Beach residents directory is based on records that fall under this law.

Certain info stays private. Social Security numbers, driver's license numbers, and Florida ID numbers are always removed from public files. Home addresses of law enforcement and some other exempt groups are also protected. The city can charge up to 15 cents per page for copies. For requests that take over 30 minutes, the city can charge for the labor at the rate of the lowest paid employee who can do the work. All fees must be paid before records go out.
