The county collector of Suncoast County is responsible for collecting all property taxes levied by funds and governments within the boundaries of the county. To reimburse the county for estimated administrative expenses of operating the tax custodial fund, the custodial fund deducts 1.9 percent from the collections for the town, the school district, and the other towns. The total amount deducted is added to the collections for the county and remitted to the Suncoast County General Fund.

County General Fund $10,373,000
Town of Bayshore General Fund 4,860,000
Suncoast County Consolidated School District 6,570,000
Other towns 3,160,000
