Below you will find links to offices and information that assist the county in achieving such a high standard of transparency.

Office of Inspector General (OIG)
This OIG was established to “Enhance Public Trust in Government”. The OIG has complete independent oversight authority to ensure accountability and transparency to the citizens of Palm Beach County.

Palm Beach County Commission on Ethics (COE)
The mission of the Palm Beach County Commission on Ethics is to foster integrity in public service, to promote the public's trust and confidence in that service, and to prevent conflicts between private interests and public duties.
