Fluvanna scores high in transparency study

February 26, 2010 by Fluco Blog · View Comments 

SPRINGFIELD — The Thomas Jefferson Institute released a study finding Fluvanna County’s government ranked 13 out of 134 localities state-wide in financial transparency.

The study was completed by President of the Thomas Jefferson Institute for Public Policy Michael Thompson and Visiting Fellow at the Thomas Jefferson Institute Jeremy Beales.

The report analyzed jurisdictions based on the web availability of budget documents, the extent and detail of those budget documents, expenditures including having the government checkbook on line and information on contracts with the private sector. Each category was given a value and then the totals for each county or city were calculated.

The full study can be read on the Thomas Jefferson Institute website.
