Know Before You Go – Local Government Map 6/22/2025

by

The Levy County Clerk of Court released a newcolor-coded map today featuring stars and precise locations of the main government offices in and immediately around the Levy County Courthouse. This updated map was created to streamline navigation for citizens seeking in-person assistance to various county offices.

Clerk of Court Matt Brooks noted, “We often hear from citizens who are unsure where to go for specific services. We also greet citizens that have not visited the courthouse in quite some time assuming all government offices are still in the same location as their last visit. This map was created to provide clear guidance and make accessing local government offices straightforward.”

The offices detailed on the map are as follows: Clerk of Court, Judicial Offices/Courtrooms, Supervisor of Elections, Tax Collector, Property Appraiser, State Attorney, Public Defender, Veteran’s Affairs, & the offices of the Levy County Board of County Commissioners.

Jury Phone Scam Alert – 5/19/2025

Jury phone scams have seen a resurgence in recent months. The most recent scam is someone impersonating court officials and calling members of the public to notify them of missed jury service. The caller has been requesting payment for a fine due to the missed service. If you receive a phone call from someone claiming to be a court official or from the Levy County Clerk of Court’s office, DO NOT give them your social security number, credit card number, or other personal information. Our office will not call you requesting such information for payment due to missed jury service. Do not fall prey to this phone scam and please make your friends, family and neighbors aware in case they get the same type of phone call.

1. Appointment Required: All individuals wishing to access the archives must schedule an appointment with the Clerk of Court office by calling 352-486-5266 Ext. 1229 or emailing [email protected]. Appointments will be scheduled during regular business hours, Monday through Friday, 8am – 5pm.
